Dress Code

✦ COCKTAIL ATTIRE — SPACE AGE GLAM ✦

We invite you to channel your inner astronaut chic! Think sleek cocktail dresses, sharp suits, and metallic accents. Feel free to lean into the retro-futuristic theme with bold colors, geometric patterns, and a touch of shimmer.

Colors to embrace: Deep navy, cosmic gold, emerald, and bold reds — just like a retro space poster!

The reception will be indoors with air conditioning, but the cocktail hour has an outdoor terrace. Ladies may want to bring a wrap.
