NL2134 Posted July 24, 2014 #51 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Carnival doesn't give you those locations until your final call 2 weeks before your sailing. They will take down preferences, but can't guarantee them. The only exception to that is if you book the DJ, then you will have reception in the night club since that is the only room set up for DJ. But, otherwise, you won't know any location details until the final call, which can happen 1-3 weeks before cruise. Most people get the call about 2 weeks before. I got the call about 3 weeks before, but I've seen some people say it was closer to only a week prior. Like Carnival_Brides said, you can let them know your venue preference, but it can depend on availability, wedding size, and what other weddings they have that day, so there are no guarantees that you will get what you want. If there are multiple weddings that day, they may need to put each wedding into the venue best suited for the number of guests, rather than stated preferences.

ImaginationCruiseBride Posted September 29, 2014 #57 Share Posted September 29, 2014 The price list for pictures has gone up. When you book the wedding make sure you take whatever pricelist they send you with you. I got married in 2 months ago and we booked the wedding March 2014 and the price had gone up in the meantime but since we took the pricelist we received with us, my personal bulldog aka my daughter insisted they give us the price from the pricelist....the increase was fairly substantial, I think almost $200 more for the same packages....so, unless you have a pricelist that was dated after March 2014, it is probably not accurate and you should add a couple hundred on to each package.

bmwows Posted January 2, 2015 #58 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Nicole, Can you e-mail me everything. NOLA is my top choice. I'm looking at Spring 2016 which I know is a ways away and prices may change, but I'd just like to gauge them. bmw08@hampshire.edu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
