-Formal attire to us means no jeans, no T-shirts. Type of formal wear can range from something you wear to church to a fancy gala.
-Doesn't have to be solid color, can have a pattern that the main color is similar to those on the palette. Don't feel pressured to match it exactly. Just want softer blues/pinks/grays to try and have more uniform photos. Soft purple/lavender would be okay too. Just avoiding bold/bright patterns or colors.
-Can have details/embellishments like beads, sequins, embroidery, rhinestones.
-Pants don't have to match the palette as long as they aren't strong bright solid colors.
-Can wear belts or other accessories.

The reception parking is valet (provided by bride and groom!). There is street public parking that can be tricky to get if you'd rather go that route.
