Agreed with the post above. It took me over a decade to convince my wife to go on our first cruise this June. I found Matt's videos first which led me to this forum. The people in here are an awesome resource, answering the basic newbie questions I've asked and have been super friendly and inviting about it.

You guys rock.

For our first cruise our family of 4 is going. I chose my time dining. Do I need to do anything special to make sure we don't end up sitting with strangers? We'd much rather be at a table with just the 4 of us.

I know Matt covers this often, but we're going on our first cruise on June and I want to make sure we're all set...

In the MDR, formal night you can get by with a nice pair of khakis and a collared shirt for men? And then what is appropriate for the other nights?
