Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
The wedding and reception dress code is Formal/Black-tie optional. Suits, tuxedos, floor-length dresses, elegant midi dresses, pantsuits, and elevated evening separates are all welcome choices. The welcome party is a White Party, so wear white from head to toe if you can, or just as much white as you’ve got. Dress code is resort casual.
Question
Do I have to wear white from head-to-toe to the white party? I don't own white pants.
Answer
That's ok! Just wear as much white as you've got. We recommend light colors otherwise (e.g. khaki pants).
Question
Is there a dress color I should avoid so I don't match the bridesmaids?
Answer
The bridesmaids are all wearing different dress colors, so you're safe!

Are you having a Jewish wedding?

Question
What are you doing with your last names?
