We have 30 people booked on a wedding cruise for June. In November, I got an e-mail giving us a date and time for our wedding on Ocean Cay. Since then, we have heard NOTHING from them. Our travel agent has been told that they are not doing ANY weddings right now. We've had the same experience as the above poster - no one knows anything, we always get a different e-mail, and receive no responses to our e-mails.
We originally sent in our form for an Ocean Cay wedding in May 2023. I later heard that Ocean Cay was being closed for refurbishment for about two months this spring. We received NOTHING from MSC about this - I only learned through the news that the island was closing. When I checked on our booking, I discovered that our group had been re-booked for June, with NO notice to our travel agent or any of us that have booked.
We chose MSC because we absolutely love the wedding pavilion - it's gorgeous. But now we are considering booking our wedding independently at a port of call. Of course, that adds additional logistics and cost. We wanted to do our wedding on a cruise because of the ease of having everyone together, a beautiful venue, and wedding planning. This is turning out to be incredibly stressful and our faith in MSC is shattered. But, we are so far down the path, with everyone booked, that we are now just trying to find a way to salvage our wedding, probably without MSC involved at all.
