J's Gal Posted July 15, 2007 #1 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Hi all, My fiance and I are getting married on the Carnival Conquest next summer. I was wondering if anyone could share their Conquest experience and pictures. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCL_Bride_2007 Posted July 17, 2007 #2 Share Posted July 17, 2007 Congratulations! I was initially getting married in Montego Bay through Carnival, but I have since switched to Tropical Weddings Jamaica. If you don't mind not knowing a lot of details before the wedding, Carnival is a great way to go. If you would like to be more hands on and have more input I recommend not going through the cruise lines. Tropical Weddings Jamaica has been a dream come true for me. There are several reviews on this website, all are great. Good Luck! ~Jessica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dec07bridemom Posted July 19, 2007 #3 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I agree - if you are relaxed enough to leave the majority of the entire wedding / reception in the hands of Carnival...this seems to be a great way for a wedding. My daughter is getting married on the Conquest 12/9/07 and she is very laid back and not picky over the details. I would be more than happy to share the experiences and events and pictures of the day when we return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is she having the reception? Do you guys have a lot of cruising guests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dec07bridemom Posted July 19, 2007 #5 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I don't know where the reception will take place yet. We are having a pianist so I am sure that will narrow it down. Carnival said they would contact me 1-2 weeks before the wedding and tell us exactly where, the time and the place of reception. So far we have about 25 or so sailing and guessing on maybe 20 or so more attending but not sailing. We are all (sailing people) planning on all meeting together Saturday night for supper in Galveston, maybe at Casey's but not sure on that yet.

J's Gal Posted July 19, 2007 Author #6 Share Posted July 19, 2007 We are planning to host a dinner in Galveston (location TBD) for all of our guests on the Saturday evening before the wedding. Your daughter's reception will more than likely be in the Blue's Piano Bar. If you have never see pictures of it, you can do a search on webshots.com and see what it looks like. Where do you guys have to travel in from for the cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dec07bridemom Posted July 20, 2007 #7 Share Posted July 20, 2007 I found a website, now I can't remember where, that had virtual tours of alot of the main areas of the Conquest. It looks really colorful and fun! Most of us will be coming from the Waco area and the Dallas / Ft Worth area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dec07bridemom Posted July 21, 2007 #9 Share Posted July 21, 2007 Nope- I told everyone they were own their own for Saturday night. That was one area I didn't want to deal with. I just told them we would let them know where we decide to eat at Sat evening and if they can make it, great, if not then ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
