Should I read all of the FAQ section?
YES. Please read this list of information as it is important for understanding crucial pieces for the event not listed on the invitation.

Please aim to wear cooler tones such as, but not limited to, blues, greens, grays, purples, and black to blend in with the color scheme of the event (and for nice looking pictures of course). The entire event will take place inside, in the same space.
