November 2013 Carnival Magic Wedding

Well we have finally set a date for the wedding and picked out the perfect cruise for our family and friends to come along on with us. We are really excited and I have just started to kick my planning into a higher gear. 

 

I have a pretty good idea even without sending invitations who is and who isn't coming but I still feel like I want to get the invitations out asap.

 

 

Anyways just wanted to start a post where I will likely post the progress of the wedding....and post any knowledge about the Carnival Magic and it's wedding info....

I am also in the early planning stages (June 2013). I look forward to sharing ideas with you!

Yay! Looking forward to hearing about all of your ideas too! This site doesn't have as much cruise specific stuff but I love all of the forums and I am working to getting the 150 posts so I can access the templates!

Yes me too I think I am at 55 posts now!
 

Wow we are looking at getting Married on a cruise too! Glad to see there are some other brides on here that are cruising too

Yes me too I think I am at 55 posts now!

 

Cool! I actually phoned todAy and booked our cabin on the ship and put a 48 hr hold on the wedding... The wedding person told me that no one else had booked yet which is exactly what I wanted. Now I just have to make up my save the dates and invites and send those out and see who comes!!!

Congratulations on booking your rooms. I will hopefully locking down a date and a wedding cruise soon. We are going on a cruise this weekend through Norwegian. This is my FI's first cruise, I didn't want his first experience cruising to be our wedding cruise. So please cross your fingers that he likes cruising (so I can continue planning)!
 

Oh my fingers are definitely crossed but don't worry. I took my FI on his first cruise last Jan and he was not into it to start....once he was on board he had such a blast it was no bother to convince him to book our wedding on a cruise. 

 

Just relax and have fun while on the cruise and try and find something that he will really want to do and splurge on that....can you guys check out shore excursions together before you leave? That was one of FI's and mines favorite ways to pass the time before a cruise...and now before the wedding!!!

We are cruising in 3 days and counting! I tried to check out the ship and excursions online and he just doesn't get excited about those things. We are on a STRICT budget, so I won't be doing any excursions. :=(  He loves Kareoke so we will definitely do that. On our Nassau day, we are going to head over to Atlantis and hang out for the day. So I definitely have things planned for us to do... and plus we just scored an upgrade to a balcony room. SWEEEET!

That is awesome!!! You are so lucky....We loved ordering breakfast every morning with the card that you leave on the door at night. Each morning we would have juice and coffee and toast and fruit out on the balcony and it was some of the best memories of the ship!!! Enjoy every minute of it and you will definitely be all set for cruising for the wedding! I know he will find something he likes. Even on a strict budget you can get a lot done on the ship...walk around the ports or make friends with others on the ship and see what they are doing...you can get some great deals when you team up with others!
