WELCOME DRINKS
Resort chic attire.
Elevated summer dressing with a relaxed edge. Think light tailoring, flowing dresses, breathable fabrics, and refined accessories, designed to suit warm evenings and Brisbane’s subtropical climate.
WEDDING DAY
Outdress the bride and groom.
Black tie for men.
For women: fashion-forward eveningwear. Floor-length gowns or statement looks are encouraged. We want confident, considered, and suited to Brisbane’s warm, subtropical climate.
Ladies, see our mood board below to help you visualise and to give you some ideas.
DRESS CODES
March weather in Brisbane can be warm or wet. We plan to host both our ceremony and reception outdoors on the rooftop, weather permitting. Should Mother Nature have other plans, all events will move indoors at The Calile Hotel. However, with outdoor elements planned throughout the day, we suggest light fabrics and footwear suited to terrace settings.
WEATHER
To allow everyone to relax and enjoy the celebrations, we’ve chosen to make both our welcome drinks and wedding day adults only, so you really enjoy a margarita or three.
