The dress code for both the ceremony and reception is Garden Party Formal.

For the ladies, Garden Party Formal is a Black Tie dress code with a light colored twist. I suggest choosing a floor length gown or floor length dress in a summery color or garden print. Avoid harsh colors like black and red, and of course, white and cream please!

As for the gentlemen, Garden Party Formal relaxes the dress code of a Black Tie wedding. Garden Party Formal is your Black Tie attire, but switch out the tuxedos for a suit and tie. To tie in the garden aspect of the event, you could even opt for a lighter colored summery suit. Please wear a suit and tie or bow tie, no jeans.

Please do not stress about the dress code, you will all look fabulous! Garden Party Formal simply takes a Black Tie dress code, relaxes it to a suit and tie, and throws in a fun, light colored twist.
