No! Silverwood is a working organic farm and therefore follows strict food and work safety guidelines that don't allow non-employees in their barn. Don't worry, there will be restrooms and covered areas for all guests, but the barn is a no-go.

Question
What should I wear?What should I wear?
Answer
We recommend you wear clothes in which you will feel comfortable standing, sitting, and dancing in the summer. We read a website about different wedding "dress codes" and this is the option that resonated best: Smart Casual means wedding guests are being asked to dress neatly, without being overly dressy – or overly casual. Dark denim or chinos with a neat shirt is appropriate, as are skirts, suits, or smart trousers.* * (we don't even know what smart trousers are, so don't think of this description as a true dress code)
