Question

Is there a dress code? If so, what should I wear?

Answer

Black Tie Optional. Please dress up as much as you'd like! This is a multiethnic wedding, celebrating both Arabic and American traditions. In Arabic weddings, guests typically dress formally.

We just ask that all guests refrain from wearing white, to reserve the color for the bride.

Answer

Of course! In our wedding RSVP form, please tell us what your allergy is. We’ll work with the venue to make sure you’re accommodated.
