Bold bowties! This is your opportunity to have fun. Pro-tip: The bowtie shouldn't match your outfit but pull a few colors from your shirt, jacket, trousers and even socks. Also make sure the pattern of the bowtie is not to similar to your shirt.
Accessorize: Cufflinks, hats, pockets squares, pins and lapel flowers are all options that will take your outfit to the next level. Don't forget accoutrements either. A cigar lighter and cutter will be hits around the fire pit.
Light weight fabrics, lighter patterns and unconstructed or unlined fabrics will be more comfortable and more appropriate for the spring and summer. Although a suit is perfectly fine for this gathering, a sport coat and trousers give an opportunity to explore interesting combinations of colors and patterns. Pro-tip: Bold patterned suits are a great way to stand out in the crowd and can be worn as separates for future events.
