    Cocktail/business casual attire. We're getting married during the week at 6 PM, so we know quite a few of our guests will be coming from work.

    Cocktail/causal. We're far from formal ourselves, we just want our friends and family to be comfortable.

    There will be suit jackets with bow ties and long flowing dresses. So I guess it will be black tie! lol

    Cocktail attire. We want people to be comfortable and not have to buy new clothes for our wedding.

    Cocktail. FH won't be in a suit, though he might yet wear a waistcoat.

    Semiformal which is the default for most weddings. Nicer than what you would wear to church for Easter or Christmas but not formal like tuxes gowns.

    Cocktail. I'm not a fan of black tie anyway, and he did that with his ex wife.
