What to wear to reunion?

I have my high school reunion coming up and I'm not sure what to wear. It's at a catering hall. There's going to be a DJ. Should I consider it a formal event, semi-formal? Would a pants outfit be ok? I don't want to show up in a formal outfit and have everyone else be in jeans...

I don't even know what I have to wear because I'm not sure what will fit me since having the baby.

Any ideas of what this calls for? And what should DH wear?

Re: What to wear to reunion?

Mine's on the 27th at the Melville Marriot. I have a brown velvet suit that I'm going to wear. It kind of can go either way, but I'm going to wear heels with it and it'll be a little dressy.

A friend's dad used to say, it's always better to be a little overdressed than to be underdressed...

I would think of it as semi-formal. A dressy pants outfit or a sexy dress would be appropriate.

I agree...semi formal...more business formal than wedding formal..pants suit is perfect, or a little black dress.....

Re: What to wear to reunion?

I just went to mine in October. It was also in the Melville Marriott. I wore a brown silk knee length dress- semi formal I guess. Other people were abotu the same or a ' going out' outfit-- skirt & shiny top, dressy pants, etc.

Dh wore a button down, tucked in, no tie, office pants & I think a sport jacket.

Some guys had ties.

mine was a little more towrds the wedding or party side than the businness side, but ours was 10 year. maybe older crowds or better schools would be more refined!

My mom wore a purple skirt suit to my dad's 40th which was at Captain Bill's.

Maybe you can call your high school reunion coordinator and ask the dress code?

I sent her an email and asked but I haven't heard back yet.
