What Do I Wear???

Please remember, costumes are always suggested, never required.  Hey, not everyone's a costume person - want to wear something that's in theme, but not specifically a costume?  Wear black! But please keep in mind whatever you choose should be family-appropriate and comfortable - also bear in mind any accessories you have with your costume should be 'friendly' and accommodating to other guests (leave sharpened weapons or any dangerous items at home, please). And don't forget - we have been known to spring an occasional costume prize contest on you...so be forewarned!!!

Friday Dessert Event – Fun Trick-or-Treat Costume - basically, anything goes for this event...people tend to keep the costumes fun, silly or comedic, but you're in charge here...so wear whatever you would wear to go trick-or-treating.

Saturday Brunch Event – Scary Theme/Red & Black - chose either 'scary' and/or 'red/black' to theme your costume - but these are only suggestions.  Some folks like to know what the 'feel' of the event is to better coordinate their costumes - the idea here is to be SCARY.

Saturday Banquet Event – Goth/Vampire Theme - choose either or both - this is pretty self-explanatory; again, the theme is only a guideline, so if you've been putting those finishing touches on that papier maché project for the last two years in the hopes of proving to everyone your devotion to Halloween - then by all means, knock yourself out!

Sunday Breakfast Event – Werewolves and Zombies Theme - this is a Tonner Halloween Convention First!!! Normally, our 'Farewell Brunch' day is Autumn-themed - but since Halloween actually falls on this Sunday, we're pulling the corpses out of the crypt and and howling at the moon with the wolves.  Just how fashionable can zombies and werewolves be?  You can bet Robert Tonner is going to show you!  And we're hoping you'll show us your decaying finery or your wolf-tacular BEST!

Have Fun!
