The short version
Garden formal
Suits and cocktail dresses. Long dresses are very welcome. Nobody needs a tuxedo, and nobody needs to buy anything new.
The ceremony and drinks are outside on grass, and the evening cools down fast once the sun drops behind the ridge.
Two practical notes
Heels will sink
We’re on lawn and gravel. Block heels, wedges and flats all work. Stilettos will spend the evening in your hand.
Bring a layer
July days in the Gorge run hot, often high eighties. The evenings drop twenty degrees and the wind comes up the river. Bring a jacket or a wrap you’d be happy to be photographed in.
What to skip
White, ivory and anything that photographs as either. Beyond that, wear what you like. We mean it.
