Dress code wording

Thanks for the input, y'all. Just to clarify, I didn't put it on the invites, I was actually going to add a small blurb to the wedding website because I keep getting the question. Also to clarify, I am not trying to tell people how to dress...I am actually more concerned that they might think they have to overdress (e.g., wear a full suit) when that is not necessary. Heck, I didn't even tell my bridesmaids what they should wear and had them all pick out any purple dress that they wanted so I am certainly not going to start with my guests! I appreciate all the input, I think day party attire does the trick.

I think "brunch wedding on the beach" would tell me how to dress. People who would dress like they are hanging by the pool will stand out, and can handle their own embarrassment. It's not your place, or responsibility to tell people how to dress.

If THEY ASK.. YOU do!!!!!

Sorry guys, I didn't realize this was such a weird question. I only asked so that maybe if I found a way to put it on my website it might curb some of the questions. Again, I am not telling people what to wear. Honestly, I am not that type of bride. But I agree, if they ask...then I wanted to have an answer. Clearly, its confusing either way so I will just wait for the questions.

View Quoted Comment I had to look at your profile, I thought this might be the Sirata! I’m getting married next door at the Tradewinds

I’m telling people beach formal if they ask but ours sounds a little fancier than yours. Maybe beach semi-formal? I know that’s not “official” but if you told me that, I’d wear a sundress and FH would probably wear slacks and a button-up.

View Quoted Comment Yes! It is Sirata! Tradewinds is super nice too, I love that whole area! Happy to find another St. Pete bride
I actually like beach semi-formal too. That would help I think
