Definitely more relaxed. We’re not having a backyard wedding but we’re also not going for super formal, black tie either.

Black tie for sure. Fiancé is wearing his dress blues, so we want everyone to have a similar level. Cocktail attire would clash.

It is a beachy theme, so dress attire is whimsical and laid back, so probably more cocktail/casual.

Definitely cocktail attire. We are not fancy people at all and would rather people be relaxed!

The groomsmen will be in tuxedos and the bridesmaids in gowns but the guests are able to wear whatever they want
