So how does it work - do we just go to the dining room on embarkation day and the maitre d' will have assigned us a table? I think our TA asked us if we prefer early or late dining and a table for 2/4/6/8...is this right in PG? I think it says 'early dining' option on our voyage personaliser.

I think we're pretty easy going so we don't mind what we do! Or am I missing anything?

Thank you all so much for your kind words and advice. looking forward to our trip and the formal nights too!

I wish October would hurry up!!! Can't wait to cruise :):)

Hi all. I am after some advice.

We are booked to sail in October on Queen Elizabeth for 14 nights, this is a special cruise for our honeymoon. We will be married just one week before!

My fiancé is a tetraplegic (I think you call this quadriplegic in the USA) and is in a wheelchair. We are booked in a PG suite and are really looking forward to this trip.

He is having a dinner suit (tuxedo) tailor made for our wedding and also an evening style waistcoat. He will also be bringing smart suit trousers, shirts, ties etc.

Is it acceptable to dress for dinner in only a shirt and tie, or in the case of formal nights, a dress shirt, bow tie and waistcoat? I ask because it is more difficult for him to manoeuvre himself in his wheelchair with a jacket!

We really do want to "dress" for evenings and I for one am very much looking forward to dressing up! But we don't wish to offend and want to ensure that he won't look out of place in a waistcoat with bow tie on some evenings where a full tux would be the dress code?

Hope you can advise, I really appreciate the help from experienced cruisers.

Thank you in advance.
