BED TIME FOR SURE!

We're aiming for a look that sits somewhere between smart casual and semi-formal - polished, relaxed, and comfortable enough to enjoy the day without feeling overly formal.  "Think 'effortlessly put together' rather than black tie".  Florals are welcome and encouraged as we are in a garden type setting.

Please don't feel any pressure to go out and buy something specifically to match the colour palette. They're simply there as a reference and inspiration, and absolutely no expectation for you to spend anything on coordinating with them. 

MEN'S DRESS

Button-up shirts, chinos, tailored trousers, loafers, or dress shoes are ideal. Blazers are welcome, but certainly not required. A full suit is absolutely fine if that is your style, but not expected. 
WOMEN'S DRESS

Midi, or maxi dresses, jumpsuits and blouses, or elegant separates are all perfect. Feel free to dress up a little, but leave the ballgowns and bridal-level sparkle at home. Heels, flats, or stylish sandals are all welcome - especially if you'd prefer to survive the day with functioning feet. 
COLOUR PALETTE

Our wedding colours are inspired by soft earthy tones - sage green, dusty blue, muted mauve, and warm stone. The palette is calm, modern, and understated, with just enough romance to feel special without taking itself too seriously. 

Sage Green / Eucalyptus

Storm Blue / Dusty Slate Blue

Dusty Mauve / Muted Lavender Rose

Warm Stone / Mushroom Taupe

OVERALL VIBE

Think cocktail hour meets relaxed celebration: stylish, neat, and comfortable. We'd love everyone to look great, feel great, and still be ready for the after party. 

Where To STAY

The options are just a few suggestions-there are plenty of accommodation choices near the venues that may be better suited to your needs and preferences. 


We recommend also exploring the surrounding areas of Walmer, Linkside, and Mill Park. For those looking for a sea view, Humewood, South End, and Summerstand are great options to consider.

WEATHER to Expect
SUN

December in PE usually means sunshine, blue skies, and at least one guest quietly regretting wearing black. 

WIND

Being PE, there is a real possibility the wind will arrive uninvited. If she does, let's hope her entrance is dramatic enough for a good photo and not enough to relocate the decor. 

RAIN

Summer rain is always a possibility, but luckily romance looks great under umbrellas too. 

SNOW

Unlikely, but this is PE. Stranger things have happened in this town. If it somehow snows, the wedding may be delayed while the city collectively loses its mind.
