Stay in the Loop!

All wedding communications, updates, announcements, schedules, transport information, and last-minute details will be shared through our official Wedding WhatsApp Community. If you don't already have WhatsApp, we strongly encourage you to download it before the wedding and join the community using the QR code below. It's the easiest way for us to communicate with all guests before and during the celebrations. Don't worry if you're not a regular WhatsApp user—you can always delete the app after the wedding if you'd like! But during the festivities, it will be our primary method of sharing important information and updates. Simply scan the QR code to join, and you'll be ready to receive all wedding announcements as they happen.
