Dress Code: Cocktail Attire Our celebration will take place both indoors and outdoors, so please dress accordingly for the Michigan weather in September — think layers and comfort without sacrificing style. For Gentlemen: A suit or sport coat with dress pants is encouraged. Ties are optional but always welcome. Think polished yet relaxed. For Ladies: Cocktail dresses, dressy skirts, or tailored jumpsuits are perfect. We suggest bringing a light wrap or jacket for the outdoor portion of the evening. Please note: the ceremony will be held on grass, so plan your footwear accordingly. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
The drive is about 1 hour and 45 minutes from the Chicago area! We suggest driving up on Saturday morning. Please note the time change to Eastern Time!
