Your Wedding at Sea
Starting your marriage with a cruise might help prolong the fairy-like atmosphere for a long time after you and your loved one are back from honeymoon. Not only is it possible for you to spend your honeymoon on the ship, but you can also get married there - which is especially convenient since cruising ships have their own wedding coordinators who so that you won't have to worry about any planning.
It doesn't mean that your parents and all your line of relatives must book cabins to attend your wedding. If you get married on board while the ship is still docked at port, you can have your family and friends there with you. Some ships will let the participants to the wedding board before the ship is prepared for sailing. When the reception and the festivities are over, the guests can leave, while the bride and the groom will stay on the ship to begin their journey together ?both literally and figuratively.
Of course, you don't have to get married before the ship sets sail. You might be dreaming of a wedding in an exotic location, such as a tropical beach or a waterfall. You can leave it all up to the wedding coordinators on the ship. They will choose the best location possible from the places the ship will visit. Saying your vows under a tropical starlit sky, accompanied by the breeze rustling through the palm trees can help to confer a cosmic dimension to the ceremony. You will truly feel you're entering a new stage of your life when you get back on the ship to continue the voyage and begin your honeymoon.
Wedding coordinators on the ship are just like the ones on land ?they will arrange for flowers, music, a photographer, and any licenses you might need. You can choose what kind of wedding package you want, according to your tastes and your budget. If you want a reception as well, the ship's kitchen will be able to provide anything you desire.
You may not have to pay for all the extra amenities. There are cruise ships offering special discounts and perks to newlyweds, so you should review a few offers before settling for one. A wedding package might include, in addition to the regular services, some attractive extras such as breakfast in bed, a wedding cake at your first dinner, and champagne. On some ships, you might even get a table for two, which is otherwise not easy to come by.
Except for some perks such as the ones mention above, the rest of your wedding will be charged extra. However, if you compare the price to that of getting married on land and then going on a cruising honeymoon, it might turn out that you can save money by resorting to the ship's wedding coordination services.
If you've enjoyed this cruising experience, consider repeating it as a second honeymoon. It will make you relive the fantastic moments of your wedding and celebrate your anniversary. Away from the agitation of a conventional anniversary, you can meditate on your relationship and make the bond even stronger.
