Question

What happens if it rains?

There are tents on Cow Island but we strongly recommend dressing accordingly as we will need to walk a bit from the docks to where the ceremony and reception will be.

Question

What should I wear?

Answer

This is going to be an outdoor wedding. Think festive dress but also think comfort. Flats, sandals, etc. are highly encouraged.
