Hi excellent.. I wore dressy golf pants like Lululemon for dinners. I stopped bringing suit jackets and opted for zip sweaters with a dress shirt so much more versatile and Retreat status these restaurants can be a bit chilly. Works for all my Celebrity cruises.. 👍👍
Thank you for covering men's wear so well. I've seen many "what to wear " videos hosted by women that mostly just talk about women's wear. What's your experience with Princess rules?
Princess rules are the same. We haven’t sailed with them in a couple years but when we sailed with them last they did enforce it. We are planning to sail with them again soon and will let you know :) Thanks for watching and commenting 😊
@@TravelingFlamingo We're going on our first cruise, on the discovery princess, in October. They say two formal and five dress casual nights, but they dont say just what the formal nights are.
Just saw a comment from another viewer who said that Princes is allowing shorts in the dining room and has become a lot more relaxed on the dress code. Hope that helps :)
Also, I have watched every video Don Terris has posted, and feel like I'm loaded with info that's "in there somewhere". I need to rewatch a lot of his stuff, and Tips For Travellers.
Love Celebrity cruises. Love to dress up and make it a date night with my spouse. We usually take the time for 1 yearly picture too . Formal gatherings are rare and few nowadays so that's what we enjoy on Celebrity. Dining rooms have A/C so no need for shorts.
We went to a sandals cocktail bar that was specifically formal but they let people wear sundresses and shorts come in. So we just looked ridiculously overdressed. Which made it like EVERY other bar in the whole resort. We want to dress very formal on "chic" night but don't want to be the only ones.
Thank you this helped me so much we are sailing next week and I wasn't sure what we should be packing 😁 on a completely different topic would you be able to explain how gratuity work on board the Celebrity Cruises?
We are so glad that you found the video helpful. Good point about gratuities. The short version would be an additional fee on your cruise fare that will be settled after your cruise. Some people old opt to pre-pay the gratuity upfront. In addition usually you leave extra for your room steward on your last day, some people also tip as they go around for extraordinary service. Some people also opt out and tip as they go along. Hope that helps
Since you mentioned baseball caps are not allowed….Am I allow to wear my black cotton toque in those formal dining rooms ? Thanks so much for sharing your experience
Hum.. took a look to find out, seems like there is a lack of info. I would think you can as it says "baseball caps" specifically, but if anyone else int he comment sections knows specifically would love to know also. I think you would be fine however. Hope that helps a bit Jackie, Happy Travels!
Did you say you can’t wear shorts in the theaters? Or did I miss understand that. I hate wearing pants. But if I only have to wear them for a few hours and can change that’s great.
In our experience they did ask you to follow the evening dress code in the theatre that would mean long pants. But they may not be as strict in the theatre.
What about Captains' Night with the photographers? We really enjoy that night of taking professinal pictures and viewing them in the picture gallery the follow day. And deciding what package we want to buy. Please tell me Celebrity also have this?
Yup! That's the formal night, so generally they do that when everyone is in their best. Of course the photos will cost money and/or require a package but they will be out in full force to take photos. Thanks for highlighting that, we'll be sure to add it into future dress code videos! Also the formal is usually on the first sea day and depending on the length of your cruise or other sea days. Hope that helps, Happy Travels wcpjams! 🦩
Ughh. Was hoping for more formal nights. When we wear fancy outfits and others wear casual its not chic! My husband and I NEVER get the chance to dress formally. It's the one time in our whole year, so people wearing regular clothes makes it less special.
That's so amazing. yeah I like the formal nights too, that said the longer the cruise the more formal nights so that's a thing so a 3 days vs. a 20 day will have more formals but we really enjoy them. Agreed and with COVID lockdowns and remote working dressing up is such a novelty now but for such a great reason. Glad to hear your feedback SCR, happy travels. 🦩
@@edgegymnastics8409 Because I dress the way I wish to dress. As long as I am clean, dry and my breasts are not falling out of my clothes, what difference does it make?
We're going on a 14-day Northerthern Europe cruise, and we have booked the Royal Suite. If I want to wear nice designer jeans, heels and a nice top, that's what I'm going to wear. I only pay attention to my husband and really could care less as to what other people are wearing, especially if we are following the Celebrity's dress code. I will bring at least 4 nice dresses, but I will wear what I feel like.
I have never understood why men don’t pack pants when they go on vacation. And check the dress code. People just don’t like to dress up and look nice anymore.
What is wrong with T-shirts? Everyone wears T-shirts. Who cares what I wear? Look, I would *rather* be looking at a bunch of people in T-shirts and jeans than having to look at women's boobs sliding out of their dresses. Guess I will not be sailing on Celebrity. BTW, I skipped over the ad for the luggage. I say the "dress code" should be whatever you would wear on land. I have dined at fancy restaurants on land wearing sandles, a T-shirt and jeans. Nobody cared. I tipped. I did not raise my voice. I was nice to the wait staff --- and I was not even on *vacation*!!!!!
@@LJ-vj8kv When I started cruising, 30 years ago, I looked forward to Formal Night, and always brought my tux. Recent years, I have been Elite on Princess, with FREE, Unlimited, laundry and dry cleaning, so I just bring carry-on. No room for a tux, but I bring a silk gown that I picked up in Beijing for $60, with embroidered dragons, that rolls up into a relatively small ball. Problem solved.
@@cruisecrazy7066 I don't want to pay a bunch of money and have to "dress for dinner". I just don't. Why would anyone care if I was wearing jeans and a T-shirt.? Seriously,, *why would anyone care*? Nobody cares! Has anyone noticed that every single person doing these "cruise" blogs are dressed in a T-shirt? They are, with good reason. It's comfortable and socially acceptable.
One of the many reasons we like sailing Celebrity is their relaxed dress at dinner compared to many more formal lines. We enjoy your channel! Thanks

Going on our 1st cruise this coming January. Chose celebrity. Going to the Caribbean. Can't wait!!

Thanks for this! Sailing on Celebrity Summit next week and appreciate the tips!
Have an awesome trip! I'm sure you'll love it Team Reese Travels!
we are sailing Celebrity for the first time next weekend on the Solstice. We are looking forward to it. any advice other than the dress code?

@@TravelingFlamingo thank you so much 😊 it's our first cruise so still figuring out how they work 🛥
@@johannacrowley8324 that is so exciting! I’m sure you will have a great time 🚢 ❤️
Thanks for sharing! I find some ships are stricter than others.
Absolutely. It is nice to be prepared. Aron had to wear his formal pants every night as they were enforcing on our sailing.
Im going on the Ascent in November
I wish Princess would adopt no shorts and no ripped jeans in the dining room.
I might be looking into Celebrity!
We really enjoyed our Celebrity Cruise. We haven’t sailed with Princess in a couple years but would like to try it again soon.
Shorts are not allowed in a Princess dining room.
Very helpful
We are so glad you found it helpful. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Is cafe Bacio an extra charge or is it included in your cruise fare?
The drinks cost extra but the food is included :)
@@TravelingFlamingo thank you!

I agree! We like to dress up too! People stare at us when we are the dressiest one the room and it would be nice if everyone dressed up!
@@iberian5319 it’s very exciting.
We are thinking of going on Celebrity April 2025.
If you don’t want to dress up at night, just eat at the buffet.
I have a huge problem with that. If I want to eat escargot, I have to get dressed up? I see no logic in that.
@@marthaworc7873 if you want to eat a nice restaurant, why wouldn’t you want to dress nicely?

I have to pairs of men pants that you zipper off the legs and instant they become Bermuba shorts
That is a good idea 👍
Lol
I have never understood why men don’t pack pants when they go on vacation. And check the dress code. People just don’t like to dress up and look nice anymore.
I think working from home has maybe changed things as well. On a daily basis people are dressing more casually.
@@iberian5319 it’s important.
What does it mean to wear a pineapple on your shirt
It means you’re a swinger lol

Hey.... I LIKE to "look at women's boobs sliding out of their dresses."
The formal nights are nice to dress up a little. Usually when we go out we follow the dress code rules out of respect for the restaurant.
