FAQ

This event is Ceremonious. What does this mean? It means you have the flexibility to show off your personality and choose an outfit that reflects your style, while still looking dressy and elegant! Remember we are all Veterans and we want to get dressed up a time or two while also having a good time after the formalities. (See some of the past attendees photos under our “About” page)

Men:

  • Wear black tie formalwear. If fellow guests are doing this, then you might feel more comfortable, however it would be completely acceptable to opt for less formal attire.
  • Dress smart casual and wear a suit. Bear in mind that your fellow guests will be dressed suitably for the occasion, so make sure that you don’t look out of place by also choosing smart footwear and accessories. 

Women:

  • This means you have the choice of a floor length dress or a luxe cocktail dress.
  • As far as styling goes, black-tie optional invites you to really experiment with your hair, makeup, and jewelry to become a more elevated version of yourself. Black-tie optional is the antithesis of daily life, so if you wear your hair in a bun in your everyday life, perhaps get a beautiful half-up half-down hairstyle that will make you feel and look different. When it comes to jewelry, leave the apple watch at home and wear jewelry that draws attention to you.
 

We want everyone to feel great. If there are concerns over not having something nice to wear, our collaborative network is ready to get you in a dress and suited. Please contact us via email immediately so we can get the “Ball Rolling” for our STL regional Veterans.
