FAQs

Question

What is the dress attire?

Answer

Semi-Formal or Dressy Casual - Try a below-the-knee dress or a dressy skirt and top. An elegant pantsuit is also appropriate. Floor-length gowns, however, would be inappropriate. Pair with heels, nice wedges, or formal flats. Men should wear a dress shirt and slacks, dark or light depending on the time of day, with the option to wear a tie. Comfortable but not to casual.
