Absolutely!
Come as you are! We honestly just want you to wear whatever you're comfortable with. But if you're feeling unsure, think "garden party" - anything from sundresses to pastel cocktail dresses, khaki to corduroy to suits. Flowy florals, airy linens, earth tones and neutral classics should all blend nicely, but don't feel like you have to shy away from a statement piece. As the venue is a working farm, you might encounter uneven terrain, gravel, grass, and dirt. Barring heavy rain, you shouldn't be trudging through mud, but we certainly wouldn't be offended if you'd rather spare your favorite, pristine pair of stilettos :)
Dinner will be served family-style. The menu is fresh and vegetable-forward, with much of the produce being grown on-site. Please inform the servers of any dietary restrictions, including if you'd like vegetarian or vegan options, and they will be provided.
There will be margarita flatbreads available as an alternative meal for children. It's basically cheese pizza! Please inform your server if your child would like that meal.
