For the love of Ganesh, get yourself an e-SIM card and load data on your phone before you land in Thailand. If not, you can get a physical SIM Card on arrival (though this may be slightly pricier).

It’s also a great idea to pick up some cash at the airport, as not everyone accepts credit cards - especially not street vendors.

Most Thais scan a QR code to pay (street vendors, shops, bills) that is linked to their Thai bank account. If you are staying a bit longer, you could think about setting up Moreta Pay to do the same.

We absolutely love your little ones (or do we?)! That said, due to space and budget, we can only accommodate children of immediate family and a few very close friends. Unless your invitation specifies otherwise, the celebration will be an adults-only event. That said, if you’re bringing your kiddos to Thailand, we’d be so happy to help connect you with trusted babysitters or nanny options so you can relax and celebrate with us!

We’d love to host everyone’s crushes, Tinder matches, and yoga teachers, but sadly space is limited! If your invitation includes a plus-one, then your special someone is absolutely welcome. Otherwise, we promise to seat you with fun people so you won’t be flying solo for long.

We have lived in Barcelona, Brussels, Paris, Kigali, Vienna, Paris, Manila and Bangkok takes the win on safety. It's super safe! The only thing to be aware of are sneaky pickpockets - especially in public spaces.

For the wedding: we want you to feel great, so please wear whatever makes you feel great! Remember that Bangkok is hot and spicy, and the venue is outdoors.

For the rest of your time: whatever you want to look good while surviving the heat. #linenforthewinen

We are sharing food family style on tables of 6-8 guests. Chef Pepe has put together a nice blend of Thai favourites and western palates. Expect a mix of vegetarian, pescatarian and carnivorous options, but please do let us know of any food allergies or stricter dietary requirements in the RSVP.

Achtung! Bangkok traffic is not to be underestimated. Do watch yourselves as the traffic can be quite hectic, and even a green light means check to your right..and your left...and your right..before crossing. Depending on the distance, outfit and how late you are, here are your choices:

• Taxis are found on Grab and Bolt. Be sure to install one of these apps and add your credit card ahead of your arrival in Thailand.Be sure to install one of these apps and add your credit card ahead of your arrival in Thailand. You can even hail cars in these apps to drive from Bangkok to another city if that's your plan.

  
  Manu’s friendship code for Bolt is found here.
  
  We do not recommend hailing taxis off the street as you’ll have to haggle, they may not know the way, etc.
  

• Above and Below Ground: The BTS (Skytrain) and MRT (Metro) systems work well, too. If you expect to roam around Bangkok for a few days, think about buying a Rabbit Card at any BTS counter and load up some money (200 THB should be fine). You can use your (physical) Visa or MasterCard for the MRT, no need to get in line for tickets.

• Mototaxis are your friends! They usually charge somewhat fixed rates and are easily found loitering around BTS stations or busy intersections. Don’t have high hopes of communicating in English, but they often recognise the name of hotels in their area. Agree to prices in advance.

• Boats are sometimes suggested by google maps as a route - go for it!

• TukTuks are the most expensive and most fun way of getting around.
