Black Tie Preferred
We invite you to dress in your finest for this special evening. Black tie preferred means we warmly encourage a tuxedo or floor-length gown — though a dark formal suit is very welcome too.
What Does Black Tie Preferred Mean?
“Black tie preferred” means a tuxedo or floor-length gown is the expectation for the evening, and we would be delighted to see you in one — though it is not strictly required. Think of it as an invitation to dress as you would for a truly special occasion — the kind of evening that calls for something you reserve for the finest moments in life.
Our celebration at The Hotel Julien is an evening of grandeur and warmth. We would be honored to see you dressed beautifully alongside us.

A Note on Color
Our wedding palette is dark navy, warm brown, and gold. Guests are warmly welcome to complement these tones — or simply wear whatever makes them feel their most elegant. The only request: please reserve white, ivory, and cream for the bride.
We cannot wait to celebrate with you. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions about attire.
