  1. On our last cruise our then 8 year old son was so happy because he was always called "Master (insert first or last name)" He thought it was so cool. Just like Batman. "Master" is what you call an unmarried man. That is why Alfred refers to Bruce Wayne as Master Bruce or Master Wayne not because Alfred is a servant. The staff got right into it and even made reference to seeing the Joker and Penguin. The staff do make the cruise extra special.:D

  2. We booked back in February for next January. We originally had only 4 people & two cabins. We added someone in March to one cabin just had to pay their deposit and change to cabin that held 3 people. in April we added another person to the other cabin (so 3 in each) again just had to change cabin to fit 3 and pay their deposit. I think the $50 thing is changing ship or sail date.

     

    As for Circle C someone else might be able to tell you, we have only sailed RCCL with our kids so far and we were able to choose if we wanted them to be able to sign themselves out when they were in the age group of 12 to 14.

     

    Hope it helps :)

  3. With this sale we got obc for both cabins :) Just phone Carnival and got it done, thanks to CC where I got the info on how to do it. Price was same but there was OBC available. Carnival person said that there were lots of cabins in the category available so price drop would be next but would lose OBC so make sure it is worth it lol

  4. Heart attack averted! Apparently I had two email accounts on Carnivals web site, one from years ago. Someone at Carnival saw this and deleted the one my bookings for 2016 was under. After freaking out because I couldn't log in to check FTTF I called Carnival and they explained what happened. So I took the opportunity to ask when shore excursions would be loaded (and FTTF) and was told end of April to Mid May:D

     

    So looking forward to it!

  5. We are booked on Paradise in Jan 2016 in a suite and an inside cabin. So I guess if we want the fast tender in Grand Cayman the FTTF would be worth it (as well as the GS short line). I am really looking forward to the announcements :D apparently everyone raves about them.

  6. Just wondering if we should get it. It sounds great!!!! We are booked in two cabins a JS and an inside. Would we only have to book it for the inside? Does JS get the same advantages or should we book it for both? How do I find out if we will be tendered?

  7. Hand fasting is basically where you bind your hands together. Traditionally I was told it was the grooms left and the brides right. This was because sometimes the bride was married against her will to someone from another clan and the groom needed his right hand to hold his sword in case he had to fight. (not sure how much is true lol)

     

    My family is from Scotland and it is becoming popular in wedding ceremonies again. If you have ever seen Braveheart it is done in the movie. When I googled it after my Dad suggested we do that at our vow renewal I liked that lots of cultures have used it over the years.

     

    Great idea about the cake topper. Thanks for sharing your ceremony sound wonderful. Hopefully you will post pictures when you come back.

  8. So happy to find this thread! My DH and I are celebrating our 20th anniversary in September and wanted to cruise then but work schedules didn't allow so we are cruising on Carnival Paradise next January. Originally wanted to go with RCCL but their price and itinerary had us looking at other options. I have not booked the Vow Renewal yet. There are 6 of us cruising and might be adding another 3 to 7 if people can arrange.

     

    Reading this thread it seems like Carnival is more flexible on date and location. We were hoping to do it the last day at sea. My DS birthday is the first day at sea and don't want to take away from his fun lol.

     

    Its great to see pictures of your dresses and such. I am wondering if anyone did anything out of the ordinary (not to script) we are hoping to have a hand fasting and write our own vows if possible. Does anyone have copies of their ceremony or let me know what the schedule is like? Can we have someone read a poem or something? Did anyone have flowers and can you post pictures please?

     

    So excited, thanks for the thread
