Yes! The dress code for the reception is semi-formal attire. For men, this could mean tuxes and suits. For women, gowns and cocktail dresses are perfect! The sealing ceremony will be Sunday dress attire. Please try to dress within the color theme, as shown at the top of this page (shades of purple, pink, tan). Do not wear anything majority white out of respect for the bride! :)
