Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

Wedding Shower Dress Code: The dress code is dressy casual. We ask that guests dress modestly and stylishly. Examples of appropriate attire include: For women: Dressy tops or blouses paired with skirts, pants, or jeans, or a stylish jumpsuit. Dresses and skirts should ideally be knee-length or longer. For men: Dress pants, chinos, or dark jeans paired with a dress shirt, button-down, or collared shirt. Blazers or sports coats are optional, and ties are not required. Wedding Ceremony: The dress code is formal, and we request modest attire. Examples include: For women: Long dresses, elegant cocktail dresses, or formal gowns. For men: A suit and tie or tuxedo. We encourage guests to dress comfortably and according to the weather, as parts of the event may be held outdoors.
