What should I wear?
We suggest you dress in what we call "California Casual". Attire such as khaki pants and a collared shirt are just fine. Some guests are dressed more formally, especially those celebrating special occasions, however attire varies from comfortable shorts to the more formal. Bring along a light jacket or wrap as it may get a bit breezy on the decks.
