Due to limited capacity, we are only able to accommodate those formally invited. If you received a plus one, it will be addressed on your invitation and RSVP section of the website.

Our dress code is "Dressy Casual." Meaning jeans are acceptable, but choose your "nicer" jeans with a dress shirt/blouse. It is similar to Semi-Formal Attire. If you're unsure - it's always better to be slightly overdressed than underdressed! Wear whatever color you would like, but please no white. (Please note that the bridesmaids will be wearing Dusty Rose and the groomsmen will be wearing tan dress shirts.)
