Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Cocktail Attire – Elegant Summer Garden We're so excited to celebrate with you and can't wait to see everyone embrace our Elegant Summer Garden theme! Ladies- Midi or floor-length dresses in breathable fabrics (chiffon, cotton, or linen) are perfect for the warm evening. Jumpsuits and pantsuits are welcome too! We recommend block heels, wedges, or flats suitable for walking on grass. Gentlemen- A suit or dress pants with a button-down shirt is great; ties are optional. Lightweight fabrics like linen or cotton will keep you cool. Additional Notes- Please refrain from wearing jeans, shorts, or flip-flops. Avoid wearing white or ivory to respect the bride's attire. We encourage you to check the weather forecast and dress accordingly to ensure comfort.
Question
Will the wedding take place indoors or outdoors?
Answer
Our ceremony and reception will both be outdoors (weather permitting). There will be grass, so please choose appropriate footwear.
Question
An outside wedding in the middle of June? Are you crazy?
Answer
Probably. But we've planned for comfort! The ceremony begins later in the evening to take advantage of cooler temps. Fans, bug spray, and shade will be available, and we have backup plans in case of rain.

Is this a kid friendly wedding?

We absolutely adore your little ones, but for everyone's comfort and safety, this will be an adults-only celebration. We hope you can make arrangements to join us for a relaxing, fun evening on the Manatee River.
