We're having our wedding party in under a month! I'm very excited
I've already invited my friends but I'm sending out a more formal invitation for the hell of it. On it I'm trying to decide how to word dress code. We're having a photographer, so I'd like for people to be at least business casual. I don't expect suits and ties and cocktail dresses, but I'd like people to come in nice jeans or slacks and a button up. Also some of my friends coming are really liberal and I have a feeling if I put a dress code they'll get all high and mighty on me. Not that that matters so much.
Anyways. The invitation is very lighthearted and I'm trying to figure out how to say "wear something decent please".
Ideas, thoughts? This is what I have right now, I sort of thought if I put people can come very fancy then they're more likely to come fancy than not. It sounds like the ladies of my SO's family plan to come in cocktail dresses. I don't care if dress code "clashes" (some wear cocktail, some more casual), but I don't want people wearing jeans with holes in it. Ya know?
"A year ago [SO] and [me] got married in the USA. It was great, but we didn’t get to celebrate with our Costa Rican family and friends! So please join us to celebrate at our wedding party! You can dress as casual or as fancy as you please. Dinner will be served which will include three drinks of your choice. After those three you’ll have to dig in your pocket if you want more. We will also have a band so bring your dancing shoes!"
Thanks!
