Just looking for what to wear? I talked with a couple of people and apparently a suit may be too much for this semi-formal? So I'm looking at just a shirt with tie and pants? I did have a similar question posted before, but I'm looking for more and different answers this time since I think I may not wear a full suit.

Wow, things sure have changed since I was in school. To me ...semi-formal means guys wear a suit %26amp; tie. But I guess in school it could be different. (?)
Ask around and see what the other guys are wearing. Not the guys who are (cough) too cool to wear a tie...More importantly..ask your date what she is wearing. If she is wearing a beautiful cocktail dress, I would say wear dress pants, dress shirt and tie. You don't want her looking very nice and you looking very casual. If she is wearing a "regular" dress, a nice pair of pants and a button down, long sleeve shirt would be ok...tie optional or you could even wear a sweater over your shirt.
Whatever you do wear...make sure you have nice, clean shoes on. There is nothing worse than seeing someone dressed nicely and looking down to see old, worn out dirty shoes on their feet. It just ruins everything. Make sure your belt is nice looking too and matches your shoes. (brown belt w/ brown shoes, black w/black, etc)
As far as colors go...you can't go wrong with black pants. Any color shirt will match and look nice but I would go with a long sleeved solid, not printed shirt. It's just a little more dressier looking.
I'm really sorry...I'm still having a hard time with semi-formal not meaning semi-formal...lol. I would guess the girls are going to be pretty "done up" and if that is the case and no other guys are wearing suits, I would strongly suggest wearing a tie. If nobody is wearing a tie, at least wear the solid, long sleeved button down dress shirt..tucked in and you could think about a nice looking sweater.
Have fun %26amp; be safe!
FOR MY OWN SANITY I HAD TO LOOK UP WHAT SEMI-FORMAL MEANS NOW....and sure enough...it means what it did back when I was in school and is as follows:
The term semi-formal for men means a good quality dark suit including a tie of same tint, white shirt, dark socks, and black shoes.

Thanks for giving ME information! I think your shirt color choices sound great. I prefer purple of course because it's my favorite color. Purple is sooooooooooo rich looking! Report It

DO NOT WEAR A TIE!!! If you really want to, go ahead, but for a semi-formal, you are better off with a nice polo shirt and khakis or a dress shirt on khakis again. Tie is a bit too much. Suit is way too much. I would also suggest wearing a shirt on the inside, not tucked and the top button loose. kind of the low end of semi formal, but still considered semi-formal. Again, if you want, wear a tucked in dress shirt that is buttoned all the way, but that's your choice.

Full suit, yes too formal.
Black dress pants, white shirt w/tie, okay.

Wear a nice pair of dark but slightly faded jeans, a cool, vintage tee shirt, a sports jacket, and some suede tennis shoes (I'm not talking about the ones you play sports in). But definitely do not wear a tie! Hope this helps!

semi formal means suit and tie...formal means a tux.
