What are formal nights like on Jewel?

[mandiecandie5]

Hi looking into a cruise on this ship, but weighing it against Caribbean Princess. After searching through some threads I'm still not clear about the dining room dress code situation and have lots of other questions. Sounds like its hardly enforced so what is formal night honestly like? Because we really look forward to this.

 

Do most dress up? Do men wear tuxes/dark suits? Do people stay dressed up after dinner or change to go to shows, etc. Are there formal photo areas set up? Is there a captains party before dinner with free drinks (where everyone on the ship is invited non of this vip stuff). :confused: :confused:
