Cocktail Attire Etiquette When in doubt, your best little black dress, a pair of sensible heels or dressy flats, some nice earrings, and a classy clutch will always work for a cocktail event, no matter the venue or time of day.

For the men, all experts agree: a suit and tie are required for cocktail attire. Go with darker hues in chillier months or for evening events. While a cocktail dress code isn’t as strict as white or black-tie, it’s not an invitation to wear just anything.

As much as we love little ones, this is an adult only event.
Rochester is the closest airport, but for pricing comparison, you could take a look at Buffalo flights or Syracuse flights. All three of these locations will require a 45+ minute drive, so you'd need to plan ahead in having someone pick you up at the airport or rent a car.
YESSSSS!! Bring your warm clothes, the bocce courts are outside and I expect it to be chilly as it's early Nov. :)
