eljayel66 Posted October 4, 2006 #77 Share Posted October 4, 2006 clblythe8 - congrats to you !! I am sailing Carnival Victory April 29 and getting married in St. Thomas !! Are you have a reception on the island? Have you finalized your plans? Who are you using for the ceremony? We are still working on figuring all of that out. We have 29 other people sailing with us. We want to have a "reception" on the island, nothing fancy though. Just wondered what you were doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't have any details as of yet. I do know that I want to have the ceremony at a beach location on the island, but not quite sure what I want to do for the reception yet. As of right now, we'll probably have a least 20 people sailing with us. What day will you guys be in St. Thomas? Are you going to have the ceremony on the ship or island? With having it on the island I can't decide whether or not to go through Carnival or a wedding coordinator in St. Thomas. Well hopefully I will have more details soon. I'm so excited!

eljayel66 Posted October 4, 2006 #80 Share Posted October 4, 2006 We will be in St. Thomas May 3rd. We do want to have a beach wedding. I have had some contact with two different coordinators and waiting for their answers to my questions as far as prices, etc. We want to have a "simple" reception and know for sure we are not using Carnival. They charge $1,500 +/- and that includes nothing really but the ceremony...... Everybody going has already booked and paid the deposit. I am working with cruisingweddings.com which is where I got the group rate (after shipboard credit, because we have 8+ cabins - we are only paying $525.00 total pp for an inside cabin (which is mostly what everybody is getting because you only sleep there !!). She took everyone's individual bookings and set up a website with any info I wanted on there. They have been wonderful !! If you want to e-mail me and ask any questions (although I too am just in the beginning stages), I would be happy to help. Maybe you have some info for me too !! :D Anyway - if you want, it's llandry1@twcny.rr.com Would love to hear from you !! Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natnat8465 Posted October 6, 2006 #83 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Hey rellakay: Its not wierd to have two ring bearers in your wedding. Its your wedding. Besides, that's what we are doing. I figured there are 2 rings, why not 2 ring bearers, right? Congratulations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caymanbride Posted October 12, 2006 #84 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Hello fellow brides, Congratulations to all of you!! We are getting married April 26, 2007 on the Mariner of the Seas while in port in Grand Cayman. We have 52 sailing guests:) . I have also become a nervous bride dealing with RR. Everytime I request something it is either extra $$ or not possible. But I am hopeful that things will turn out great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbcaper Posted October 13, 2006 #85 Share Posted October 13, 2006 We got engaged last year on the caribbean princess in St Thomas and have started planning our wedding for March 2007. We will be on the crown princess for a back to back cruise. We have been in touch with weddings the island way a few times. They seem to be very professional and helpful (they return calls quickly). I was wondering if anyone knows whether or not I would be allowed to bring a wedding cake back onto the ship that I am planning on buying from a bakery in St Thomas? This bakery will deliver the cake right to the ship for a fee. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the cake, but I do remember reading from the boards that people have taken the cake with them on board. I am actually getting married on the Crown myself in April and would love to see your pics and review when you get back. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kcbmarek Posted November 29, 2006 #89 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Well I am not a cruise bride but we are honeymooning on the NCL Star's Inside Passage Alaska cruise July 7-14. This will follow our destination wedding in Lake Tahoe with 40 of our family and close friends. We splurged for a balcony cabin and I booked our first excursion yesterday - glacier helicopter and dog sledding tour in Skagway. We are so excited!!!!

divvy23 Posted January 5, 2007 #94 Share Posted January 5, 2007 First let me begin by saying congratulations to all those who are planning to wed, having honeymoons, renewing their vows, and celebrating anniversaries! My fiance and I have booked our wedding aboard the Carnival Legend on July 31, 2007. The sail dates are 7/29/07-8/5/07. Upon reading some of the other posts I fear that I am drastically behind in my planning. I have yet to pick out a dress (I keep hoping for some lost pounds), I have yet to send any Save The Date cards (though I think I may be getting closer to picking out what I want), and I have not even looked at an invitation yet. But other than that all is under control....<laughing maniacally> On the upside, I have however by word of mouth passed on the info to friends and family so that I do have guests booked and attending....yay! So any advice anyone can give is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance and good luck to all! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deniseluvsvinnie Posted January 5, 2007 #95 Share Posted January 5, 2007 I am getting married in St. Thomas, May 15, 2007 and we are on the Carnival Legend. What we did is sent save the date magnets which I bought on ebay (cheap, cheap cheap!) with brochures of the ship and an informational newsletter I made up on printshop. It is nothing fancy, just date, prices and ports. Carnival sent me out the brochures and postcards too! I must warn you though the Carnival group department has been a pain since the beginning, you can't talk to one person and everyone seems to have different rules. Good Luck!

TexasGirl2007 Posted January 11, 2007 #99 Share Posted January 11, 2007 My fiance and I are getting married on May 13, 2007 on the Rhapsody of the Seas. We are both so excited about the wedding and the cruise. For Christmas, he got us another cruise leaving February 4 for 5 nights. It's on the same ship so I can take pictures of the rooms that we will possibly get married in. I can't wait!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stepdancr Posted January 19, 2007 #100 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Congrats on your upcoming wedding. Are you getting nervous. I just got married on Jewel of the Seas December 30, 2006. It was awesome. Just as a side note (not to make your more nervous), either you, or someone you trust, needs to pay CLOSE attention to the wedding coordinators for your wedding. Mine left a lot to be desired. All in all, it was an awesome wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
