| The Dress Code shall be strictly adhered to. The Butler will assess each visitor at the door, and inappropriately dressed individuals will be requested to change on the spot. (Vapourpunk may share a number of general similarities with such attire popular amidst followers of Steampunk or Neodandyism, though it is also perhaps merely a state of mind. It's style can be imagined in the feeling one has when engulfed in steam or walking through mist, when dancing through dry ice or losing one's way in darkening, mistfilled woods; when one discerns letters forming in the condensations of a mirror in a steamy bathroom…) | The Dress Code shall be strictly adhered to.

| The Code of Conduct shall also be strictly enforced. As the Ceremony is a liminal event taking place outside the everyday world of customary roles, mores, and social conventions, Non-Normal conduct is to be adhered to throughout. The Butler will continuously assess the behaviour of each visitor for the duration of the evening. Any person found evincing "normal" behaviour at any time will be requested immediately to bring their conduct in line with the Ceremony. A second infringement will incur penalties, such as exclusion from the Frivolities. Those found infringing a third time will be summarily locked in the storeroom for the remainder of the evening. | The Code of Conduct shall also be strictly enforced.
