We would love to see our friends and family get dressed up with us! We are requesting a semi-formal/cocktail attire suitable for a garden party at the mansion. For ladies, this could be anything from a floral, flowy maxi dress to a pastel midi or knee-length dress, or jumpsuit. We strongly suggest avoiding stilettos due to the cobblestone and lawn. For men, this means a suit of any color (except for white), dress shirt, and tie. For more attire info: https://www.brides.com/cocktail-attire-wedding-4844364
