For our wedding, we’re embracing the timeless elegance of Black Tie—a dress code that promises a celebration as stylish as it is memorable. This guide will help you navigate the details, so you can arrive perfectly dressed and ready to enjoy the festivities (and, of course, look amazing in the photos).
Black Tie is a formal dress code that signifies elegance and sophistication, typically reserved for special occasions like weddings, galas, and upscale events.
For ladies, a floor-length dress or a gown is the perfect choice. Accessories should be refined, and the overall look should reflect grace and sophistication.
Gentlemen should wear a black tuxedo with a black bow tie. Black leather shoes complete the look. The goal is classic refinement and a sharp, well-put-together outfit.
As the event will include boat transportation, please choose footwear that is comfortable for walking and stable on a boat deck.
Ladies, we’d love for you to consider dressing in colours such as blue, green, violet, pink, yellow and orange in their pastel or rich jewel tones to complement our Lake Como setting. We also encourage you to dress to impress—this is the perfect opportunity to bring out your A-game and celebrate in style! More importantly, we want you to feel comfortable and confident in whatever you choose to wear.
Please refrain from wearing neon or overly bright colors that could draw attention away from the bride and the overall atmosphere.
Additionally, the following colours should not be worn, as they are not suitable for the occasion:
- red (aggressive, attention-grabbing),
- black (mourning or funerals),
- and white (reserved for the bride).
