Is there a dress code and What should I wear to the wedding?

Yes! We are asking our guests to dress up with us! We’ve been lucky enough to be invited to quite a few nuptials over our time together and one of our favorite things about attending is dressing up! We encourage guests to wear elegant and formal attire, with black tie attire being in mind it being a particularly fitting choice for our special day. For men, this might mean a tuxedo but more flexible, jacket and tie or traditional suit, with formal shoes. For women, this means floor length or midi length dresses or chic jumpsuit (just no white colored dresses!!). Please avoid wearing jeans, white, creams or ivories, green Please note the ceremony will be fully outdoors, while the reception will include a combination of indoor and outdoor setting- including a patio during the cocktail hours.
