Oops ... I neglected to ask you prior to now if there is a dress code for the reception. Well we'll be dressed (thankfully) .. in a respectable manner.
Please do give us a heads up if it's a black tie/ Ball gown type of affair.

This is the Great Northwest, Mireille! We're pretty casual - especially working in film. Everyone's going to look "nice." I guess that means bathed, hair combed, teeth brushed ... maybe blazers and no tie for the guys. I'm wearing a casual pants outfit.

I am getting more and more excited day by day! I miss the North West and It is going to be great to be back. Even if just for a little bit.

CONGRATS on a sold out premiere, cp! That's awesome! :) I'm sure the second showing will sell out soon. I won't be able to attend the festivities as I'll be on a flight en route to Singapore for a friend's wedding, but I'm so glad to have seen the cast screening. Have a blast! Much love and continued success! -henry

Colleen!!!!!
I am so excited. I know you have to be jumping up and down. I spoke with Dawn (makeup) on a shoot this week and bragged that I got my tickets early! I have a dress all picked out and my husband (huge Sean Patrick Flanery fan) is almost as excited as I am. I can't wait to see the film and listen to everyone laugh!
Holding my breath!
