Frequently Asked Questions
Can I bring a plus-one?
We would love to accommodate everyone, but due to space limitations, we can only host the guests listed on the invitation and, if applicable, their partner. Unfortunately, we cannot extend the invitation to additional companions, such as friends or acquaintances. If you are attending with your partner, please remember to complete an RSVP form for each person. We truly appreciate your understanding and are excited to share this special day with you.
Can I bring my children to the wedding?
We love your little ones, but we’ve decided to keep our wedding day an intimate celebration. For this reason, the presence of children is limited to those traveling to Madrid from out-of-town. For our guests living in Madrid, we kindly ask that you join us for this adult-focused celebration.
We hope you understand this decision and know it was made with care to ensure a relaxed and enjoyable day for everyone. If you have any concerns or need assistance making arrangements, feel free to reach out to us.
I have a dietary restriction or allergy, can I have a special menu?
Yes, please inform us about your dietary restrictions or allergies in the RSVP form.
I would like to make a surprise for the couple, or give a speech, how can I arrange it?

What’s the dress code?
Spanish weddings are typically formal. For our celebration, we encourage you to dress elegantly while keeping these traditions in mind: please avoid wearing white, and note that while black is less common for women, it is perfectly fine for men to wear black suits. We’re adding some examples below for your reference. We can’t wait to see you looking your best!
Is there a WhatsApp group I can join to discuss travel plans and activities with other guests?
Yes! To make it easier for everyone to connect, we’ve created multiple self-managed WhatsApp groups. Each group is tailored to specific languages—English, German, and Spanish—so guests can communicate comfortably.
Feel free to join the group (or groups!) that suit you. We expect different guests to join the group(s) based on the language they’re most comfortable speaking. Joining multiple groups is completely okay if you’re bilingual or simply want to interact with a more diverse set of guests!
Here are the WhatsApp group details:
We encourage everyone to use these groups to share travel tips, activity suggestions in Madrid, or coordinate plans with others during the wedding week. Please note that these groups are self-managed, so we kindly request all participants to respect the group dynamics and keep discussions helpful and wedding-related.
If you have any specific questions about the event or logistics, however, it’s always best to contact either Laura or Thomas directly via Whatsapp.
