Question
What is the dress code for the Wedding? What should I wear?
Answer
We welcome Formal attire for our wedding day. Please note that for shoes we recommend block/thicker heels or something more comfortable, as you may be required to walk on grass, or nearby a pool (plus we will be dancing all night!). John's Island Club also has a dress code: no blue denim is permitted and no hats or visors may be worn inside any Club facility.
