Question from Eloisa:
I am looking for a cocktail dress for myself and my husband is planning on wearing a suit although he feels strange being a little more dressed up then the guests and I try to tell him that we should a little bit more dressed up because we are hosting and it is our 25th anniversary. We should be fine dressed up as I mention above even though we are having this event during the day and having a picnic style buffet for lunch. Is our attire is good since we are renewing our vows?
Also for my out of state guests, should I give them the info about hotels prices and rental car prices when I send the save-the-date cards or should I wait until they ask? Because they may need the info in case they want to stay in a hotel that is in the same city on where we are having the event? Thank you.
Answer from Bridal Expert Angela:
Hi Eloisa. Your attire sounds perfect. There are some great cocktail dresses (sometimes called T dresses) which you can find at this link.
As for your out of town guests, I would wait until they ask for additional information. Informing them that you have the information is enough at this stage of the process. This post about save-the-date cards gives a more complete answer.
