FAQs

The Wedding Website of Madison Palmer and Matthew Petry
Question

What should I wear?

Answer

We’d love for our family and friends to dress to impress in formal or cocktail attire. Ladies may wear floor-length or tea-length dresses, and gentlemen should wear a suit and tie. Summer colors are encouraged—feel free to use our wedding color palette above for inspiration! To help our bride stand out, we kindly ask that guests avoid cream, ivory, or white. Tip for the ladies: The ceremony will be held on the lawn (weather permitting), so please consider your shoes accordingly.
