Jenzkind Posted October 18, 2006 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2006 My fiance and I have never been on a cruise before. We've decided that we want to have an onboard wedding on a cruise ship before it embarks, so family/friends can be at the ceremony but don't have to go on the cruise. In all the online research I've done, it looks like most shipboard weddings are formal, with the bride wearing a traditional wedding gown and the groom in a tux. This may be a silly question, but do cruise lines mandate that you must have a formal attire for weddings? Is it possible for us and our friends/family to be in casual attire during the ceremony? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOLUVSCO Posted October 18, 2006 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Its your day! Wear what you want to wear. I think most first time brides, like to go the traditional way, but I have also seen some casual brides pictures on this board, where the bride had a white sundress and the groom had white linen pants and shirt with sandles. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajbrath8077 Posted October 19, 2006 #3 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Its your day!!!! Your decision! Im getting married next year (1st timers)- my fiance and I arent doing formal. Simple white cotton/linen dress and who knows what he's planning to wear ..haha We knows it def. something simple (we love linen/cotten). Doing a casual wedding decreases the stress of hunting for a dress & tux. And he is def a stress free man. In the end, you do what you want to do and what fits your personality. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rip Posted October 22, 2006 #5 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I goty married 3 years ago on the enchantment, at the port. I wore a cotton sundress and my husband wore shorts and a shirt. Guests wore casual and everyone was happy. Good Luck Robyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
