Our ceremony will be outdoors. We do have heaters for the tent and outdoor dance floor. Please wear what YOU feel best in and what will be most comfortable for YOU with the fall weather :)
According to the Knot / Google, Formal Attire Means ...
For women, formal wedding guest dresses include both evening gowns and elegant cocktail frocks, so pick the hemline you feel best in. That being said, you don't have to wear a dress at all. A jumpsuit is the perfect alternative to a dress and will provide ultimate comfort for a busy day of wedding festivities. You can also wear suits and other dressy separates.
For men, you can wear a tuxedo, but you don't have to—a dark suit and tie are also appropriate. Dress shoes fit the bill when it comes to footwear. Consider patent leather loafers for a tux or laced oxfords for a suit. A formal wedding is also the perfect time to break out the cufflinks.
