Wedding Dress Codes
Wedding dress codes can sometimes feel confusing. While they’re only ever a quick Google away, they’re still one of the most common questions couples are asked.
At Bracu Estate, we often find that “Garden Party” is a beautiful and fitting description — depending on the style and atmosphere you’re envisioning for your day.
Of course, your dress code should reflect your personal style and the overall tone of your celebration — whether that’s refined and formal, modern and minimal, or relaxed and romantic.
The most formal of all
Women: Floor-length evening gown, elegant accessories
Men: Black tailcoat, white formal shirt, white waistcoat, bow tie, black formal shoes
