Come as your colourful self
We’d love for everyone to dress up, feel amazing and bring a little colour to our special day!
Think formal cocktail attire — beautiful dresses, dressy jumpsuits, suits, colourful ties, gorgeous patterns and your favourite accessories. Hair, makeup and getting a little extra fancy are absolutely encouraged!
We’d love to see bright colours, floral prints, blues, pinks, yellows, purples and everything in between. There’s no need to match our wedding colours — have fun with it!
A little note: Please leave white and bridal-style outfits for the bride, and where possible, choose a colourful alternative to an all-black outfit.
Colourful outfit ideas that stand apart from our green décor.
Most importantly, dress up, have fun and come ready to celebrate with us!
Good to know
Everything from what to wear to how to get home.
All the details, outfit tips and optional colour swatches are in our dress-code guide above ↗.
