Frequently Most Asked Questions
~What is the dress code?
Our wedding will take place in a beautiful tropical setting, so we are asking our guests to dress in beach cocktail attire.
Ladies: elegant sundresses, knee-length cocktail dresses, or flowy maxi dresses in breathable fabrics are perfect. Feel free to embrace vibrant colors, floral prints, or tropical patterns. Flat sandals or low wedges are great choices, especially if you'll be walking on sand.
Gentlemen: Linen pants, tailored chinos, or khakis paired with a short- or long-sleeve button-up shirt work perfectly. A jacket is optional, and ties are not required. Dressy sandals or loafers will keep things stylish yet comfortable.
We want you to feel polished, yet comfortable for our celebration. Think light, airy, and fun!
