Yes, there's an optional dress up night, and you'll see a pretty big range of clothes. You'll see some suits, but not too many.

Trust me, before my first cruise I was totally freaked, too. I was so used to having all the knowledge of how things worked, the ins & outs of a WDW vacation. It was so unnerving to go on a cruise & feel like I knew nothing. Very uncomfortable. @Disneyfalcon & @HollyBelle were my lifesavers! I prob'ly made them insane with all my questioning. Holly was such a doll making extra effort to document & photograph every moment in the check-in & boarding process. That was huuuuge for me. Point is, I was new once. Someone helped me. It's only right for me to help others.
Don't worry, I think we were all completely clueless on our first cruise. Even as someone who had been on tons of vacations to the parks, the cruise is just a whole different animal. I had a million questions! Then at least one hundred more when I went from a long cruise to a short one.

You know what's funny?

Do you think slacks and a button down are worth bringing? Or just a nice pair of jeans and a polo?

I would! Well, my husband would, lol. But it's totally up to you. People will really be casual on a 3 night cruise. So jeans and a polo would fit in just fine.
I tried to find an answer to my dining question elsewhere, but could not, so I thought I'd just add on to this thread. Hope that's OK.
For a group of 3, are you more likely to be seated with others at the same table or are there small tables available?
If small tables are available, can you request a small table?

I'm not sure of odds to land at a table with others vs. alone but if dining alone is something you prefer you can put a request on your reservation for that. You'd likely land at a 4-top.

My wife and I requested a private table for the cruise we just took last weekend. Our wish was granted (helped that we were staying Concierge), and we were at Table 74. It's a 4-top that's just inside the entrance at Gardens and Royal. It's just out in the middle at Animators.
Was very nice to have a table to ourselves, as we are quite anti-social and can think of nothing worse than being forced to interact with strangers while eating dinner

We are also a group of 3. We have always been seated with folks that are also from Florida and have a son that is a similar age to our daughter we always joke that DCL is playing match maker, lol). Thus far we have not had a bad experience with table mates so I'm crossing our fingers that this weekend we will not mess that up.

We were also granted a private 4-top for the two of us on our cruise last month, even though we were only staying in a Category 5D
. It was the "opposite" of yours, Table 47! We were quite happy with our table, the service, and the food. Made the request because my hubby is anti-social. I'll talk to anyone about anything, and @sweetpee_1993 and @Disneyfalcon can verify that.

We must be married to the same man! Of course, when mine does decide to talk, he just goes on and on and on....We were also granted a private 4-top for the two of us on our cruise last month, even though we were only staying in a Category 5D
