FAQs

Question

What do I wear?

Answer

We’re envisioning an elegant garden‑party atmosphere—polished, festive, and comfortable enough to enjoy a summer evening outdoors. Tuxes and gowns are absolutely welcome, but so are suits and midi‑length dresses, so guests can choose whatever semi‑formal style feels best. Because the venue is fully paved, you can wear any dressy shoe you love: heels, wedges, loafers, or dressy sandals all work perfectly. If you’d like to play with the setting, feel free to lean into a soft, nature‑inspired palette—think ocean blues, sunset tones, warm neutrals, garden greens, or florals. August in Southern California tends to be warm during the day, so lightweight, breathable fabrics will keep you comfortable. The evenings can cool off, so bringing a light layer is a smart touch.
