FAQ
-
When do you need my RSVP by?
Please RSVP by 13 October 2026. This is so we can confirm details with vendors and make sure there’s plenty for everyone to eat and drink! If your plans change, please email alexandshaf@gmail.com as soon as possible.
-
What should I wear?
We’d love to see you in cocktail attire, and welcome as much colour as you’re up for! Stiletto heels may be difficult to walk on as there is grass and gravel.
-
I'm not sure how to get to/how to get around/where to stay on/what to do on Waiheke
We’ve provided all the information you should need on the Waiheke tab!
-
Can I bring my child?
We love your little ones, but kindly request you don’t bring them with you on the day. If you need help arranging babysitting on the island or will have a baby under six months old, please email us on alexandshaf@gmail.com so we can get things sorted.

Can I bring my pet?
While Pablo may be making a special appearance, please don’t bring any other furry friends.

Will the wedding be indoors or outdoors?
All going to plan, the wedding will be outdoors, with rainy-day plans for marquees as required.
-
Can I take photos and videos?
For the ceremony, please keep your phones, cameras, and iPads tucked away - we’ve got the professionals ready for that! Once the ceremony is over, you are welcome and invited to take as many photos and videos as you’d like.
-
Is there a gift registry?
Your presence is the best present we could ask for. We of course appreciate any cards and well wishes if you would like to bring them, and will have a box on hand to collect these.
-
Will food be served?
Yes, both canapes and a full sit-down meal will be served. Please let us know any dietary restrictions in your RSVP or by emailing alexandshaf@gmail.com.

Can I bring a plus one?
We will have spoken to you about whether you have a plus one. Please do not bring any guests not included on your RSVP - but let us know if you think we’ve missed someone off!
-
Can I stay with you?
While we would love to accommodate all our guests, we have had to prioritise immediate family and the bridal party. Your RSVP will tell you if we have provided accommodation for you.

My question isn't answered here!
