Proper etiquette for those who still follow it say that it is impolite to mention dress code on the invitation (and websites which not all couples make) because guests are considered to be adults capable of dressing themselves and guests are not props. And default dress code for many social circles when nothing is listed is semi-formal/cocktail. The exception being when black tie is required by the venue before anyone can enter.
When dress code is not listed anywhere, does it stress you out or does it relieve you?
