Attire

	Rare but not entirely uncommon attire around these here parts. Negative: Likely to alarm most guests. Positive: Self sufficient food supply.
	This attire is more commonly found in the deep Southwest, namely L.A. Not recommended.
	While striking and extremely well put together, this attire would generally be considered over the top in Dolores. Positives: Creates plenty of room on the dance floor. Negatives: Might be mistaken for mountain pheasant or quail and be shot at. (see picture at top)
	This is it. Say no more. The status quo for a Friday night in Dolores. This couple will be the envy of the party and the talk of the town. Their modern look says,"I'm not afraid to be hip" while their dance style is just a little dirty without saying, "I'm Janet Jackson". Highly recommended for the entire time you are here.

But seriously:

Friday night: In our little corner of the world, we don't often get a opportunity to dress up - this is one of those opportunities. That said, dress comfortably and plan on a warm summer night. Flip flops are entirely appropriate as are silk dress jackets. Think fun, not formal.

Saturday: We're hoping for a bluebird San Juan Mountain day, mid 70's and sunny with a light breeze. BUT - these are the mountains. Don't wear heels. Wear good shoes for being outside. It could rain or snow, and it can be chilly at times. Rain gear is essential. Bring a baseball or wide brimmed hat, plenty of sunscreen and bug repellent. The key is to dress practically for being outside most of the afternoon. Much more on the wedding day in an upcoming post.
