Our Wedding

We met each other through chance - a lucky chance. Wakaas had moved to Arkansas to work at Tyson Foods; Madelyn just finished her MBA and started full time at Tyson Foods. We fell in love that summer and got engaged that fall in Texas. The rest... is history.

General Q + A

Semi-Formal | Cocktail Attire

We kindly request that you come dressed in semi-formal or cocktail attire. However, we understand that not everyone may have formal clothing readily available. Please do not feel obligated to purchase new clothes for the occasion. We encourage you to use what you already have in your wardrobe. The most important thing is that you are there to celebrate with us.

What is semi-formal / cocktail?

Semi-formal or cocktail attire strikes a balance between casual and formal, typically consisting of a well-tailored suit or blazer with dress pants for men, and cocktail dresses, stylish separates, or dressy jumpsuits for women. *Blazers Optional - we do encourage you to wear something you can dance in. Please refrain from wearing white, cream, etc. out of respect for the happy couple.

Now I know the style, but I'm still struggling. What about colors?

We are so glad you asked...

WEDDING COLORS

Our wedding colors are wine red, juniper, and dusty sage.
