Question

What is the attire?

Answer

Formal attire requested: We ask men to wear a tuxedo or a dark suit and tie and women to wear an evening gown or a midi- or knee-length cocktail dress. We’ll be starting the celebration in our traditional church, so we encourage attire that balances elegance with respect for the sacrament. (think jackets, shawls, or any light covering if needed)
