DRESS CODE
York Oratory Church & Castle Howard
To assist our guests—particularly those travelling from outside the UK—we have included a selection of visual references below to illustrate what Morning Coat / Suit and Day Dress
traditionally signify for an English summer wedding.
These references are intended as guidance only and are not prescriptive.
Above all, we wish for our guests to feel comfortable and at ease, and we warmly encourage you to
dress in a way that feels most appropriate and personal to you.
For ladies, hats and fascinators are very welcome in keeping with the character of a
traditional daytime celebration, though they are entirely optional.
Your comfort and enjoyment are our utmost priority, and we very much
look forward to celebrating with you.
