FAQs

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

We are saying "semi-formal": slacks, ties, jackets, suits, gowns and dresses. It will get cold so dress accordingly. Get your cowboy boots and hats ready! Feel free to bring anything to change into or have layers. If you’re wearing cowboy boots you could wear a light pair of socks during the day and then some warm wool socks for the evening. We are inspired by the natural colors of Big Cottonwood Canyon in the Fall. Caitlin loves color and florals. Brett says "smoking jackets and bolo ties encouraged". Think Vermont Fall meets Utah Cowboy ;)
