Question

What’s the dress code?

Answer

We’d love it if you included a traditional touch, this could be anything from a necklace, earring, brooch, or shawl to a full outfit, if you have one. That said, feel free to wear whatever makes you feel comfortable and festive. The ceremony will be outdoors in Berkeley in October, so we recommend bringing a light jacket in case it gets chilly.
