I do not know what DH is going to do yet. We can not rent from DCL as we would wonder if it would fit right and if he can not, we do not want it to be too late. I am not sure they have his size anyway. If I get him to agree to the tux thing, we will have to get it from here. I will keep you posted. DD and I will just wear our Christmas as well as Easter dresses for formal and semi-formal night. We are easier believe it or not. I do the dress shoe thing, but I like to put them on occasionally as I can not dress like this daily.

OK,
James does not want to lug his Tux all the way to Florida. I know he can rent one, how is it to rent ?

Ron, I saw you post that you rent. How many guys are renting vs just wearing dress (shirt, pants w/ tie and jacket) ?

Michelle

Hey Michelle,
Here is the link for the Tux Rental" http://www.cruiselineformal.com/
It was very easy to order, as all we had to do was go to a local Tux shop...get measured, and then call the Phone #... give them your mesaurements,sail date,cruiseline, room# (and Credit card of course LOL)..and it will be waiting in your room when you get there (or shortly after, same day anyway).
They tell you to try it on right away, incase any adjustments are needed...Ron did need some adjustments, and all we had to do was tell our stateroom host and he called the seamstress, she set up a time to come to our room...she measured for the alterations, pinned it, and then took the tux with her, it was returned in no time...
when the cruise is over, as all you have to do is leave it hanging in your closet, your stateroom host will just check to make sure all the pieces are there.....it's just that simple!!!!

They say to call at least 2 weeks before your sail date....

Jennifer,

It looks like Micday has more experience than us in WDW trips, so you should definitely take advantage of that. We are still willing to give tips as well.

Hey All,

If I had not already seen pictures of them, I might suspect that Tink doesn't actually have kids, but that they are just fictional additional passengers that she books so that she can check enough bags for all her stuff!

My plans right now are just tie and jacket, not renting a tux.

I have to get you back for that one...... Yes I have a problem. I am an obsessive over packer. Now as all of you come to my room and ask, "Tink do you have a safety pin? Do you have a sewing kit? Do you have something for a Headache? Do you have another sink????? You will all thank me for being an over packer. Yes we are the ones with the BIG ORANGE stickers on our bags.... That's okay, Jen needs the tent..... Now Mike that is an idea, make up kids so I can bring more stuff. Never thought of that one. See the only problem would be then I would have to go to a cat.4 or two seperate rooms. Anyone traveling with three? I can give you an extra person for me. See that was Johnna secret with me. We were going to get a second room for our stuff and put the names of the people as MR. & MRS. OVERPACKED STUFF .

 

[Johnna_Story]

The main reason I rent a tux is because I don't want to pack my suit. Plus I look so darn good it it

I totally agree!!! You are a hottie farmer Ron! But you look even better in leather.

Your wife is a lucky lady.

I'm sure that will go straight to his head!!!!

tink,
I'm an over-zealous packer as well. I take everything...which explains why I don't have room for sleeves on my tops....there's just no room for them!!!

It's getting closer!

[MAD on Disney]

So many of us on (Michelle, Brenda, Kim, Rani, and myself by my current count), and still no working Chat room.

 

[Micday]

Second Michelle is here too !!!!!!!!!!!

That sucks no chat !!!!!!!!!!!!

My brother-in-law ( who's a police office) just agreed to stay at our home while we are gone to take care of our dog and cat !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Less money for kennel more for cruise !

Michelle

 

[Micday]

I just realized what time it is, I've got to go get DD ! See ya'll later............

Michelle

 

[atinkerbellmom]

And Johnna- OMGoodness. Wouldn't it be nice to all be able to talk. I do not know, a lot of us busy talkers are on, maybe you could not get a word in if we could Mike....

 

[Micday]

Man,

WE are ALL on so far that really really really sucks that we can't chat !

Mic

 

[atinkerbellmom]

And now, Michelle, Rani, Mike, Brenda, Johnna, and me.

 

[atinkerbellmom]

Good News Michelle..... We always have someone stay at our house as we not only have the dog, we have a Parrot whom only wants to stay in her own cage. So, cool......

 

[MAD on Disney]

Tink
Sure you don't want to pack the parrot to go with the really authentic, elaborate pirate costume that my husband said you were wearing for the Piarate party? Cause I know I better not be the only female dressed like a serving wench/pirate at this thing.

Mad at MAD on Disney (otherwise known as Melissa)

 

[Micday]

WOW,

So we are going to have Michelle x2 + Melissa.

Melissa,
I'm working on that costume I love to dress up. I tried to be Minnie Mouse but the stupid costume places just looked at me like I was a nut. I had to explain that it was NOT for DD but for ME !
