Question

What is Garden Party Formal?What is Garden Party Formal?

Answer

"Garden Party Formal" is a dress code that combines elements of formal attire with a relaxed, outdoor vibe that strikes the balance between elegance and comfort. The key is to choose outfits that are stylish and polished yet practical in a way that's suitable for a lush, outdoor setting. After all, you'll be navigating grassy lawns and potentially uneven terrain. • Women: Flowing midi or maxi dresses in light, breathable fabrics like chiffon, silk, or organza. Floral prints and soft or bright pastels complement the garden setting. Pair with delicate jewelry, strappy heels, or dressy flats. • Men: Light-colored suits or tailored trousers with a linen or cotton blazer. Soft hues like beige, sage, or sky blue work well. Pair with a crisp button-down shirt (tie optional), loafers, or dress shoes. A pocket square adds a dapper touch.

Question

Why is your wedding being held on a Monday?Why is your wedding being held on a Monday?

Answer

We are aware that this is a vacation trip for everyone attending. A Monday wedding was a strategic decision in consideration of our guests. For those leaving over the weekend, we wanted to give ample time to acclimate to the time change and rest from traveling before the festivities so no one is exhausted, and we wanted to host the wedding early enough in the week to not hold our guests “hostage” on their Italian vacation. Please enjoy beautiful Italy and all it has to offer!

Question

Question

Where is the Registry?Where is the Registry?

Answer

We understand and appreciate the time and expense involved in traveling to be part of our celebration. Your presence is our present. Due to many requests for a registry, we will make one available closer to the wedding date, but in no way should you feel obliged to send a gift.
