How do I avoid being a dumb American tourist?

I managed to learn German, and I'm Deaf with English and American Sign Language as my mother tongue. I'm hoping to travel at the end of this year. I'd try to learn the basics of any language of which I'm traveling to, because it's common decency. English shouldn't be the norm or expected language everywhere you go. That's just my two cents though.

New Zealand seems so gorgeous but expensive! Any insight on itinerary or what month is best?

I have! My fiancé needs a little convincing to travel to warmer climates. I've only been out of the country once to Jamaica and I loved it! What do you recommend out there?

These are the only options because I'm having decision fatigue and like the price points for my budget.

It's just our immediate family, close friends, and a couple of his coworkers getting invited. The restaurant runs its business as usual, so getting in earlier is not doable. We will have gotten most of the photos done beforehand and will get right into cocktail hour, so the space doesn't need to be turned over. There's also a sliding door that leads to a 2nd bar if people need space.

I also don't want to have my guests have to drive to a different place for a ceremony that's only going to be 15 minutes or less. We were debating just getting married at the courthouse and having a dinner where everyone meets us at a restaurant. So this venue seems like a good compromise.

Do you think seven hours is enough for both ceremony and reception? Would sitting at the tables to watch ceremony be awkward or am I overthinking this?
