Dress Code

The dress code for the wedding is formal with a tropical twist.

We’re calling it “jungle chic”.

For Everyone: we know our friends and family love to show out when it comes to wardrobe! as a reminder, costa rica is very hot and humid. while There will be plenty of shade, we recommend choosing wardrobe that is breathable for maximum comfort. If you need help or have any questions about what to wear, feel free to text emily or Austin!

For Women: have fun with color and embrace the tropical spirit! Bring on the floral, the flowy, the beaded. Please also Keep in mind that the garden has a grass floor, so plan your shoes accordingly! Block heels or flats would work better than stilettos.

For Men: we know that formal in a tropical climate can feel stuffy or uncomfortable due to heat! if you’re going for a jacket, lighter materials like linen would be perfect. but Feel free to go no jacket too! tropical-inspired nice button downs with rolled sleeves or even a formal short sleeve are a-okay with us!
