Is there actually a dress code? Can't we wear whatever we want? What should we pack as far as clothing goes?

Any tips? Is the dress code a suggestion or is it mandatory? There is no way hubby will dress for anything. Perhaps a shirt at dinner, is all.

Basically, you CAN wear what you want.

However, often, if not at all CM villages, there are white, black and elegant nights you do not want to miss.
Other popular colours: beige, red, blue, jeans, etc.
You can also just wear one of the colours suggested for the evening, i.e. if it's white and blue, you can go in either white OR blue.

The dress codes are mandatory for the GOs, but not for the GMs (=guests).

Since you do not need that much for the days, bring some nice outfits for the evenings.
The CDV and his team will appreciate.

You will find some photo links here on the forum. Look for them and you'll get the idea about how to dress. But never feel forced in any way.

PS: the dress codes just like the daily activities, evening buffets and shows are usually listed somewhere near the reception or the restaurant entrance.
