ALL BLACK + BLACK TIE All Black: We kindly request that guests wear all black from head to toe. This adds to the elegance and timeless atmosphere we’re aiming for. Black Tie: Formal attire is required. For men, a black tuxedo with a black bow tie is the classic option, but a dark suit and tie also works. For women, a formal evening gown, cocktail dress, or dressy separates are perfect. Please avoid casual attire (such as jeans or sneakers). Please dress in your finest to celebrate the newlyweds!
