GRAHAM HALSTEAD
Dress Code
We want all our guests to feel their best throughout the weekend, part of that is playing dress up! Below you will find vision boards for the weekend to help guide your packing!
​
Don’t forget the lake has tons of fun outdoors activities to do, so be sure to bring your bathing suit, hiking boots, and comfy clothes to enjoy the sights!​
Welcome Drinks and Dinner
The welcome party is semi-formal. For men, think dress pants, a button up, and a sports jacket. For women, think tea-length, knee-length, or midi cocktail dress; slip dresses; dressy jumpsuit; or nice pants and a blouse.​
We recommend you skip the stilettos in favor of block heels, wedges, or flats due to the wood floors and grassy yard at the yacht club. We ask that you avoid any colors traditionally reserved for the bride - whites, ivories, creams, etc.

Weather
Our wedding will take place outside in late September. Although we cannot predict the weather, in Garrett County, MD you can expect September to be anywhere between 60°F (15°C) to 80°F (27°C) during the day and in the 40s (4°C) to 60s (15°C) during evening hours. Hopefully, it won’t be too chilly, but be prepared with jackets/sweaters/coats as an option. We are hoping for beautiful scenery and colors.
