Is there a dress code?
While there is no formal dress code, our stylist recommends: “For the ladies flowing dresses and wedges or sandals (heels are best left at home) and a summer hat or statement accessory can be an excellent way to finish off an outfit. For the gents a tailored shirt matched with dress shorts or chinos, together with loafers or boat shoes achieves a polished yet casual look for the day. Sunglasses are a must-have addition on the sunny Gold Coast!”
Any offensive or hateful clothing will not be permitted at the event.
Do you provide pass-outs?
