It should come as no surprise to anyone that a wedding on Halloween might have a bit of a theme.

Now, please note that there is absolutely no pressure to get gussied up to the nines, if you are someone who like to keep their formal wear more casual, fall cocktail attire is perfect.

For those who want to have fun with fashion, please do be creative with your attire. the overall aesthetic of the wedding is very much antique/vintage. With a combination between 1950's flare and an olden fairytale feel. But otherwise just use your best judgement.

And no, please don't come in costume.

We would really appreciate if you kept your phones off and silenced during the ceremony and let the photographer capture all the magic without interference of waving iPhones.

However, after the ceremony feel free to take as many photos as you like! There will also be disposable cameras around the reception hall so you can help be a part of collecting as many memories of the night as possible.

The short answer is yes, we will be working to make arrangements with a hotel in Cologne. It is just too early as of right now (September 2023) but as soon as there is information of that hotel available as well as anything else relating to accommodations will be found on our Travel & Accommodations page.

There is a lot more in depth information on this in our Travel & Accommodations section.

But in here are a few important pieces of info:

• Do not exchange money beforehand. You will spend so much of exchange fees, do not do it.

• If you want some cash on hand (which it is good to have,) you can take out money at local ATMs upon your arrival for a lesser fee. Or check if you have a card that is internationally friendly so you can skip paying any additional cost while abroad. You can also sign up for one of these cards in advance if that's something you're interested in and plan to travel abroad again.

• Visa and Mastercard credit cards are widely accepted. American Express is not accepted a lot of places.
