THE STYLE GUIDE

This is an elevated gathering. Guests are encouraged to dress with intention, style, and according to the attire requirements below.

When choosing your attire for the evening, consider Googling:

• Summer cocktail party
• Martha's Vineyard garden party
• Chic vacation/yacht wear.

We are asking all guests to wear solid colors of black, white, earth tones, pastels, or gem tones. Please avoid patterns. If all else fails, wear all white.

Please note: the venue has a strict dress code policy. Elevated attire is required - unfortunately we cannot admit anyone wearing jeans, ball caps, or hair scarves. Most of the experience is indoors or in shaded areas, so you should be comfortable.

Kindly reference the look book in the photo gallery.

Step into the experience. Connect. Collaborate. Elevate.
