Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We would love to see our family and friends dressed up with us! We are requesting formal dress code for the evening. For men, this means suits, or button-down shirts and dress pants. For women, floor-length gowns, elegant cocktail dresses, or dressy jumpsuits are appropriate. We encourage everyone to dress to impress while keeping in mind the venue's vibe and weather. If you're unsure-- it's always better to be slightly overdressed than underdressed. Wear whatever color you like, but please no white. (Please note that bridesmaids will be wearing light blue).

Outdoor! The ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will all be outdoor. The ceremony is on astroturf, and cocktail hour is on grass, so please be cautious wearing heels.
