We are getting married May 30th 2022 on Caribbean Princess. Princess cruise line. Our first stop is Princesses private island on Sun, day before the wedding, then St. Thomas the day after the wedding on Tuesday, and finally St. Kitts on Thursday which i'm very excited about. It's a 7 day cruise Sat to Sat so there's a few sea days as well.
We actually mailed out the invites yesterday afternoon with an RSVP date of March 1st. This gives those who haven't booked yet time to do so, and make plans with work, etc. We sent 22 total. Of those we expect several no's and estimate a head count between 10-16 people. But who knows. Time will tell, right?
There's just a few more things for you both the get through, I can understand your fiance' being so nervous. You've come such a long way!!
I'm sending you positive vibes everything works out great 🤞
You will have an amazing wedding on Princess! By May a lot should be better!
We are down to the final last 3 1/2 days!!!.....It's sooooo close!

Is there an email address at Royal we can contact? Or someone on a particular ship to ask?

Good Morning,
I was wondering if the Love and Marriage Show has been on the recent sailing for Odyssey?
If not is there someone you can email (Activities Director?) that you can request to have put on your sailing?
We will be getting married on the ship in a week and was wondering if they had the show recently?
I think it would be awesome to have the show since I was told by the Wedding Company that we will be the first couple married on board Odyssey.
Thank for the help!

We sail December 27th on the Independence OTS and was wondering how far in advance I should be ordering my test kits for my family? I hear that they come fast but I don't want to miss out. I'm a bit of a planner/ worrier. Also, besides just my family of 4, we have a much larger group going who will all need this on their own too.
I would wait a little bit. They are sending out kits currently that luckily have the extended shelf life of 3 months added to them because if not mine would have expired today for my cruise on Oct 17th.
I ordered mine about a month before my sailing.

Wow! Never expected such quick responses. Thank you all! It is an Oct 31 sailing and we do know about the Covid test requirement, planning on getting Rapid Antigens for all of us before leaving home. One more question, please since you folks seem to have the latest answers. Are independent shore excursions in Mexico allowed? I think our daughter would do better if it were not a ship tour.
I don't know too much about the excursions.
We are on the Odyssey also but sailing on the 17th...actually getting married on the ship during the first sea day! Just found out we will be the first couple to be married on the ship!
We purchased the at home kits from the link from Royal....I think it's easier than finding/booking a location to go get one.....heard CVS cancels tons of appts. 1 or 2 days before the appt.
Have a great cruise and enjoy!!!

I apologize if this topic has been discussed before, but I remain very confused. We have an upcoming October cruise on Odyssey going out of Fort Lauderdale. Originally the cruise line sent us information that seemed to indicate both vaccinated and unvaccinated passengers would be allowed. Now I read that all Royal Caribbean cruises require vaccinations. This is fine with me as all of us have both shots, but I really would like some clarification if possible. We are taking our grown disabled daughter with us and she remains worried about Covid breakthroughs. I would like to be able to give her some reassurance. Thank you
Which sailing are you going out on?
They also require a COVID test up to 2 days before the cruise also.

I am so excited for you both! Two weeks from today you'll officially be married. 👰🤵
That's awesome you two are the first couple to be married on the ship. Hopefully the captain makes an announcement over the PA system to let everyone know:}
We've still got 7 months to go and I can't wait. I can only imagine how you both are feeling.
If you get a chance come back here before you leave and let us know how you're doing. If not, I wish you a fantastic wedding and a wonderful honeymoon. 🥂
Thank you so much!!!! 12 days to go!!!! They wedding is on the 19th...so we still have 2 weeks from today to be married lol.
I'm hoping there are only about 50% of the ship capacity!....I heard the current sailing only has about 1,600 people on it!
My fiancé has been nervous and can't eat lately....I'm fine but I'm more nervous about the COVID testing for us and our guests.....don't know what we will do if anyone comes back positive.
7 more months for you....when is the wedding and sail date?...Which ship again? and where are you ports? Have you mailed out your invitations yet? I think in 7 months things will be alot better than they are now!....
I will be back on soon with updates before we go!

Following!!
We will be boarding her in 13 days!!! Also, having our wedding on board and it will be the first wedding on her!
We have had to change our wedding cruise 7 times since April 2020.....luckily we acquired extra FCC and found an inexpensive Grand Suite on the Indy and once it was moved we we put into the same room on Odyssey!!!
Love seeing the pics and looking for great photo ops in our wedding attire!
How many people are on board for your sailing?
Are they selling the ship models in the gift shop?
Hope you are having an amazing time!!!

Exactly 2 weeks to go!!!!
test kits in hand waiting until that Friday night to do them!!!!
was told by the wedding company that since the pandemic started we will be the 2nd couple getting married on a ship by them!
Was also told we will be the first couple to get married ever on the Odyssey!!! Does that mean we should have something put on the ship to commemorate their first wedding? A night plaque or something lol. Or we can be the god-parents of the ship??? Lol

Haha.
I believe right now the North Star has a limited capacity of people for each ride.
We have a small group of like 8
but will they let us cut in line? Since we only have the photographer for 2 hours?

First of all, congratulations!
I'm pretty sure you are the first wedding onboard Odyssey.
Staircase photo on the Esplanade is a classic. The hallway of art on the Esplanade is also very nice. I would also say the Music Hall, and maybe even the Solarium are nice locations.
Thank you for the suggestions!!!
I wonder if we could get up in the North Star for a small group photo?
if we are the first wedding aboard Odyssey will they commemorate that anyway? A nice plaque on the ship somewhere? Lol

Hello Chris!!
we will be coming aboard in 18 days!!
can’t wait to see this beautiful ship!
I was wondering if you could suggest locations on the ship where it would be the best locations for photos? We are actually getting married at sea on the ship and have the photographer for 2 hours and looking for the best locations.
Thanks in advance!!!!

We have the photographer for 2 hours so after the ceremony we will have a toast and cutting of the cake.
we will have probably around an hour left to walk around the ship to take photos at certain locations we pick out.
then it will be very close for dinner at 5:15

18 days to go!!!

I just realized I forgot to ask if you two did itinerary cards/programs for your wedding day? If so, how did you word them? We are leaning towards a single sheet of cardstock paper with the essentials only. Time and place of ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner. We plan on putting them in the welcome bags for the out of town guests who come in ahead of time. Since that will be just about everyone who's attending we aren't worried about missing anyone.
We didn’t do any cards for ours. We did for last April but threw them out. We went from 16 other people coming down to 4 guests!
we still made wedding favors bags with personalized candy bar wrappers, tiny hand sanitizers with personalized wrappers, tins with sticks on both sides and candy inside them, and compasses with personalized notes on the cards attached by rope/twine and few other little goodies….which will all be in a small cloth bag with our names the date and an anchor on the front.
