Answer

WHAT SHALL I WEAR? Wear something you feel great in! Late September in Maine can be chilly in the morning and evening, so pack layers. For wedding day, most guests will be wearing dresses/suits, but you do you! We do recommend shoes that won't sink into the grass and a sweater or shawl, as we’ll be outdoors for the ceremony and under a heated tent for the remainder of the night.
