We are excited to invite you to a fabulous evening inspired by the glitz and glamour of a Great GratzBriT themed night featuring lots of black and gold! While this event is formal, we’re giving you the flexibility to either embrace a full black-tie look—tuxedos, evening gowns, or ball gowns—or go for a more relaxed yet still elegant formal suit or cocktail dress. We encourage you to pull out those sparkly, show-stopping outfits you’ve been saving for a special occasion that makes you feel fabulous! Think Glamour meets Fun! And for those wondering, bridesmaids will be in black long dresses, while groomsmen will be in black tuxedos! We don't mind if you match since black is super flattering color! Just maybe avoid all white ;)
