I find that regardless of the "dress code" I tell people, they still come wearing literally "whatever". I've always been so let down because sometimes (while you want your guests to be comfortable and feel welcome) you want a specific vibe or feel and to have cute pictures as well!
I've flat out told people who asked what to wear/the style: "like a Stepford Wife", and been rather let down. Just request it in a way so that if they aren't certain they'll call and you can say (because they are specifically asking) sundresses, polos and khakis. I think spring/summer flair or garden party flair may work well to encourage this.
However, don't be disappointed when you have men in jeans and women in...well, Lord knows. I gave up the fight it cos I feel like some people don't have the same ridiculously adorable "let's dress up cos it's fun" gene.
