Question

Attire (What Do I Wear?)

Answer

Our wedding is Black Tie Optional! That means you’re welcome to go all out with a tuxedo or a formal gown if you’d like, but it’s not required. A suit and tie or a cocktail dress would also be perfectly appropriate. We just want you to feel comfortable while celebrating with us—whether that means dressing to the nines or keeping it classy yet relaxed!
