    For men, please wear dinner jackets and bow ties. For women, cocktail, mid-length or floor-length dresses are all good! For women, please don't wear black, it’s a happy day! The wedding will be inside, but we may have some brief time outside in the afternoon, depending on the weather in March 2025!
