WHAT TO WEAR

We kindly invite our guests to dress in semi-formal attire for our wedding day. Think elevated and polished, while keeping in mind the setting—our celebration will take place in the North Georgia mountains, with both indoor and outdoor elements. For Women: Cocktail dresses, midi or floor-length dresses, or dressy jumpsuits For Men: Suits or dress shirts with jackets; ties optional A few things to consider: ◈ November evenings in the mountains can be cool—layers are encouraged ◈ Portions of the event will take place outdoors, so comfortable footwear is recommended ◈ Heels may be challenging on certain outdoor surfaces We can’t wait to see you all dressed up and celebrating with us!

Getting There

The closest airport is Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), located about 1.5 hours from Dahlonega. We recommend renting a car for the easiest experience.

Dahlonega is a beautiful, rural mountain town, but transportation options are limited. Rideshare services like Uber and Lyft are not reliable in this area and often have long wait times or limited availability. We strongly recommend planning your transportation in advance.
