Attire is formal/dressy, but suit jackets are not required. The weather will most likely be hot. The reception in the Ballroom will be fully air-conditioned, so you may find you need a light sweater, that is, until you get dancing!

Anyone with gluten allergies can be accommodated, though, cross-contamination with other cooking utensils is not guaranteed. Please let us know if outside food needs to be accommodated so that we can take care of it.
