What is the dress code?

Answer

Our dress code is formal. We invite you to dress to the nines and celebrate with us! Please wear long evening gowns, suits with ties, polished separates, or equivalent elegant attire. Ladies, please do not wear any shades of white or cream. Gentlemen, please no shorts, jeans, or hats. We are respectfully requesting all guests to avoid emerald green as that is reserved for the wedding party.

Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?

The ceremony and cocktail hour will be held outdoors with a fabulous view of the Matanzas River and the lighthouse in the distance, we are so excited for you to see it!
