Questions

The stuff you're wondering

Cebu is tropical — warm and humid year-round. Expect 28–32°C. Dry season runs December–May, which is perfect timing for us. Pack light, breathable clothes and maybe a light rain jacket just in case.

Philippine Peso (PHP). Roughly 1 AUD = 35–38 PHP. ATMs are everywhere, cards accepted at hotels and resorts, but bring some cash for small vendors and transport.

Philippines uses Type A/B plugs (US-style, flat pins) at 220V. Australian plugs won't fit — bring a universal adapter. Most hotels have USB charging available.

Cebu is a popular tourist destination and generally very safe. Normal travel precautions apply — don't flash valuables, use registered transport. Filipinos are famously friendly and hospitable.

Yes. Always. You'll want coverage for trip cancellation, delays, and medical evacuation just in case.

Your presence is the present — especially given the travel involved! If you'd like to contribute, we'll add registry details closer to the date.

Absolutely — kids are welcome! It's a destination wedding, so bring the whole crew and make a family holiday out of it.
