Bring a sweater or light jacket because meeting rooms and outdoor patios can be a bit chilly. Dress attire for the Gold 100 Reception & Dinner is formal, which ranges from short cocktail dresses to long gowns for women, while the men wear business suits, tuxedos or even kilts. Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable!
