What’s the dress code?

The dress code is semi-formal—suits and cocktail or floor-length gowns. The ceremony will be outside, on the grass, so people wearing dresses may want to consider a light sweater or shawl and block heels. Early October in Minnesota has a large range of likely temperatures, it could be anywhere from high 70s in the day to low 40s after sunset. Most importantly, we want you to wear what you feel good in! See this link for some inspiration, if helpful: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GafhVxZuHCH2gX0LvvUR8xMqg5DOzMfu/view?usp=sharing
