We will go to Boracay (November 24 - 27) for a few days after the wedding.
We welcome you to join us, but at the same time there is no pressure. Don't worry, it's not our Honeymoon - think of it as a fun way to extend the trip if you would like to see another beautiful island in the Philippines and join us for some island hopping!
We will arrange travel from Iloilo City to Boracay Island with a stop for lunch. It is about a 3 - 4 hour van ride and then a 5 - 10 minute speed boat to Boracay Island.
To depart Boracay, we will fly out of Godofredo P. Ramos Airport, also known as Caticlan Airport (MPH).
