What to Wear

Sartorial Considerations to pass on to your haberdasher, seamstrix, miliner and cobbler

Update! Weather models are showing a nor’easter on the way. (You can take the girl outta Alaska, but…)

Please do your rain dances with fervor this week

and remember to bring a layer!

Plan for cool and wet and hope for the best. We’ll have cozy tents and an army of lucky umbrellas available :)

We are thrilled to host the entirety of our rustic country gathering, from ceremony to revels, at Ways’ End, Jonathan’s childhood home in the woodsy bucolic town of Lincoln, MA.

To make the most of this beautiful place, you will be invited to join us in to-ing and fro-ing, circumnavigating, treasure hunting, choose-your-own-adventuring, and generalized tomfoolery around the property as the evening progresses!

Attire/Dress Code: “Country/Garden”

Please wear clothing that allows you to feel festive, comfortable, and present. Joy-forward outfits with statement accessories.

For dress-wearers:

Think mid- to long-length bright colors, patterns, textures, florals; garden party/sundress level fanciness. Jumpsuits of course encouraged for those who plan high-kicks or splits on the dance floor. Please consider a shawl/layer for a cool evening.

For suit-wearers:

Think lightweight pants and blazer, festive ties/bolos for neck flair; don’t forget your party socks.

Shoes:

Practical shoes are a must! Ways’ End is a country setting. Please wear shoes that prioritize comfort, stability on uneven ground, and sweet moves on the dance floor.

(We’ll also have a spot to stow spares if you like to swap shoes for dancing)

(Lizi says: put another way, dresscode is “Alaska Fancy”!)

For out-of-towners coming on Sunday:

Pack comfy brunch clothes! Dresscode is casual.
