Question

What should I wear for "Black Tie"?

Answer

Dress to the nines! Black Tie typically means tuxedos with bow ties and full-length gowns, and we can't wait to see you dress up! We are flexible to your style, therefore, tuxes or dark suits with bow ties, full-length gowns and midi- to full-length formal dresses or equivalent are all fine. See the "Black Tie Optional" graphic above.

Not really! Please schedule your cars in advance. June17 is providing a discount for all Trabulsi-Smedes guests. Text June17 at (310) 880-6390 to schedule your ride. For airport rides: Ride apps are available, however the cars are in high demand. We recommend arranging airport pickup in advance. We like https://june17rides.com/. For getting to/from the venue: The venue is only one mile from the town of Sisters, so it can be difficult to get drivers for such a short distance. We'll provide a shuttle to/from hotels in downtown Sisters for the wedding ceremony and reception. For the Welcome Party on Friday, we recommend either driving or contacting June17 car service in advance to arrange for a ride https://june17rides.com/.
