AOS- how formal is formal night for 5 night Bermuda cruise?

[DENNAS]

Adventure of the Seas this Thursday July 21st - 5 night Bermuda. I understand there is a formal night. Does hubby need a jacket and or tie? He wanted to just wear a long sleeved button down shirt with slacks. Is this ok?
I’ll wear a dress, not super dressy though. Thanks All. Haven’t cruised in years. 😉

You most likely will see anything from ripped jeans / t-shirts to tuxedos / evening gowns.

 

Wear what you are comfortable wearing.

How formal?  Not very.  You'll be fine but I'd make that dress a solid, dark colored one vs. a floral print.  We don't even do the formal nights anymore and just go to the buffet on formal nights.  We've played dress-up enough. 😉

Shorts and a polo shirt with sneakers is perfectly acceptable. 

 

Definitely leave the jacket, tie and long sleave shirt home. You are on vacation. If you want to dress up, then wear jeans or dockers instead of shorts.

And why would there be a problem with a floral print???

I'm wondering the same.

We were on this sailing in late May, as mentioned it varied from VERY formal, to VERY informal.  Wear what you are comfortable with.

Why? What’s the difference if my dress is dark vs one with some color??

Floral in BERMUDA on a dressy night? Of course!

Went to Bermuda on Celebrity Horizon years ago.  Folks were dressed very casual and comfy!  I loved it
