Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes, the wedding attire is beach formal. Even though the dress code is listed as "formal", feel free to opt out of the blazer since it will be really warm. We recommend wearing sweat-wicking fabrics, such as linen shirts or "guayaberas." For the ladies, please take into consideration that the venue is largely staged on sand; therefore, we recommend shoes that allow you to walk on it. For example, wedges or thick heels.
