Wedding FAQ

Logistics

Please arrive by 3:30 PM. The ceremony begins promptly at 4:00 PM, and we do not want anyone to miss a moment.

Is there parking available?

Yes. Parking at The Anam Cam Ranh is complimentary for all registered guests. The resort offers both self-parking and valet services.

Will transportation be provided?

Transportation is not provided. We recommend coordinating with your hotel or arranging a private transfer. See the Travel tab for airport and arrival tips.

Where will wedding updates be posted?

Right here. This website is updated regularly as we get closer to the big day, so be sure to check back for the latest information.

Getting There

What is the best airport to fly into?

The closest airport is Cam Ranh International Airport (CXR), located just 15-20 minutes from the resort by car. It offers direct domestic flights from Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, and Da Nang, as well as international connections from Seoul, Bangkok, Singapore, and more.

Do I need a visa to visit Vietnam?

Many nationalities can enter Vietnam visa-free for a limited period, but requirements vary by country. We recommend checking your government's official travel site well in advance to confirm what is needed for your passport.

What currency should I bring?

The local currency is the Vietnamese dong (VND). USD is widely accepted in tourist areas, but having some local cash on hand is handy for smaller purchases and tips.

Where should I stay?

We have reserved a room block at The Anam Cam Ranh. Mention our wedding when booking for a discount. Other nearby options include:

JW Marriott Cam Ranh Bay Resort & Spa (0.5 mi): private beaches, pools, premium spa.
Alma Resort Cam Ranh: sprawling pool complex, multiple dining options, on-site water park.
Fusion Resort Cam Ranh: hilltop villas, all-inclusive spa, uninterrupted ocean views.
The View Hotel (1.3 mi): highly rated, budget-friendly, great Wi-Fi, nearby snorkeling.
Cong Thanh Long Beach Hotel (0.5 mi): comfortable rooms, on-site restaurant.

Weather & Comfort

What is the weather expected to be like?

Warm, sunny, and tropical. Expect temperatures around 85-88°F (29-31°C) with humidity. Pack light, breathable fabrics and plan to embrace the heat. You are in paradise, after all.

Will there be air conditioning?

Since the ceremony and reception are outdoors, there will not be traditional AC. This is exactly why we encourage lightweight fabrics, comfortable footwear, and a carefree attitude. We will have fans and plenty of cold drinks to keep everyone cool and comfortable throughout the evening.

Dress Code

What is the dress code?

Tropical Formal, and we mean it. This is a destination wedding in Vietnam, and we want everyone dressed to match the occasion.

For guests wearing dresses

Midi or maxi-length dresses are required. Please no short or mini-length dresses. We are celebrating outdoors in a lush resort setting, and longer hemlines are both elegant and practical. Lean into bright colors, bold prints, and florals. The more festive, the better. Please avoid white, ivory, cream, or any shade that could be mistaken for bridal.

For our male guests

Tuxedos are not required, and honestly, you will thank us. A linen, cotton, or seersucker suit is ideal. Light or fun colors such as sky blue, sage, coral, tan, and tropical prints are warmly encouraged. Think resort formal, not black tie.

For everyone

Vietnam will be warm and humid, so please choose lightweight, breathable fabrics. Your comfort matters. We want you dancing all night, not wilting.

Examples for color, print, and formality - not a limit

Dress inspiration examples are welcome here, but they are not limiting. Use them as a guide for color, print, and formality, then make the look your own.

Is there a theme?

Yes. Our theme is Garden in Bloom. Incorporate fun colors and beautiful prints into your look and you will fit right in.

Footwear

What should I wear on my feet?

The ceremony and reception are outdoors, so we recommend block heels, wedges, or dressy flat sandals. Stilettos are not ideal on grass or uneven surfaces. Comfortable and chic is the move.

Food & Drinks

What is on the menu?

An international buffet. And since you are in Asia, expect some truly delicious local food. Come hungry.

What if I have dietary restrictions?

Please note any dietary restrictions in your RSVP and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Will there be an open bar?

Absolutely. Keep the drinks and the good vibes flowing.

Guest List & RSVPs

Can I bring a plus-one?

We are not accommodating plus-ones. Our guest list is intentionally intimate, and every person invited is someone we deeply love and wanted there by name. Your invitation will clearly list who is included in your party.

What is the RSVP deadline?

Please RSVP by September 1st.

Can I change my RSVP?

Yes. Just reach out to us directly. If you know Hung, text (916) 842-0079. If you know Vivi, text (408) 466-5219.

Ceremony

Is it an unplugged ceremony?

Yes. We kindly ask that you put phones and cameras away during the ceremony and simply be present with us. Our photographer will capture everything. We promise you will not miss a shot.

Registry

Do you have a registry?

Your presence is truly the greatest gift. But if you would like to contribute to our future home or honeymoon fund, you can find our registry right here on the website under the Registry tab.
