Summer Time Smart Casual
There's no better way to introduce you to Sydney than at The Opera Bar. It's a fave for tourist, locals and Jacqui and Johns. Come join us for a drink and enjoy the afternoon and evening. We might just get a great sunset too. For Men: Tops: A collared shirt (button-up, polo, or even a neat t-shirt) paired with a blazer or casual jacket is common (if it's cold and you want to). Avoid overly casual t-shirts or graphic tees. Bottoms: Well-fitted chinos, smart jeans (dark, no distressing), or tailored trousers. Avoid overly casual shorts or ripped jeans. Footwear: Neat loafers, brogues, or dress shoes. Clean, stylish sneakers may work in more relaxed settings but should still look polished. For Women: Tops: A smart blouse, shirt, or dressy top. Bring a cardigan if it looks like it will get cold or windy. Bottoms: Tailored pants, skirts, or a neat pair of jeans (dark wash, no rips). Dress: Sundresses and rompers are the best. Footwear: Flats, sandals, or low heels.

Bright and Colorful - Boat to Beach
Meet at Wharf 7 in Kings Wharf, at the base of Cuthbert St. Sydney Harbour holds a special place in our hearts, and for those of you who haven’t had the chance to experience it yet – get ready for something truly magical. What better way to soak it all in than from the deck of a boat? We thought it would be fun to spend a few hours out on the water, taking in the incredible views. And hey, if you’re after your best Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell or Kate and Leo moment at the bow, we’ll be there cheering you on! 😉 If you’d love to join us on this adventure, we’d be over the moon to have you along for the ride. There will be a small fee to help us all sail smoothly together, but we promise it’ll be worth every wave. Once we know who’s keen, we’ll share the details and lock everything in! Dress code: Bright and colorful, bring your toggs (swimmers) if you want to jump in 😄
1:00 pm - 4:30 pm
Casual, chic (bring a pair of walk shoes)
Watsons Bay Hotel is one of the first places John and Jac had waterfront drinks together in Australia with her family. Aussies know what a 'hotel' is, but Americans should think of this spot as a chic beach bar. Hop on the ferry with us from Circular Quay and ride for some seafood and schooners at the beach.
