Hey Ashley!

I'm getting married aboard the Carnival Freedom in Ft. Lauderdale before we sail. I can't wait to hear all about your wedding and your cruise!!

Kay when's ur wedding? Do you have a big group going?

[kaywomack]

Ashley,

We are getting married January 30, 2010. So far, my sister is the only one officially booked but I'm sure we'll have some more. It's still a bit far out for people to make plans. I see that you have a group going. It's going to be fun!! Can't wait.

I'm just starting on deciding on invitations. I think I'm going to print my own, so I want to start on them soon, so I don't feel rushed.

How's you planning going??

Welcome to all the recently added cruise brides! I am getting so excited as we are 2 weeks away from the big day. I pray that things go fairly smoothly and remembering other brides suggestions to go with the flow.

 

I'm just finalizing the last minute items on the to-do list. How are you ladies doing?

Hey Kay

My planning is going really well actually. I am ahead of the schedule I set for myself. (I really tend to micromanage things thou. I feel like I have so much time on my hands that I have started or created more DIY projects than I expected. But I didnt do my invites and I'm contemplating not doing my programs either. I think I'll keep my DIY projects to the OOT bags lol. But all in all its been alotta fun ths far. Now that almost everyone is booked. That was a big ssue with getting ppl booked in time etc. But now we just have 2 friends who aren't booked and possibly some friends of my gma's So we're pretty good with that. We're just trying to find them same sex roommates.

 

Hello Sarice

I wish I were you being so close to ur date and all.I plan to stay as calm as possible as well. That's why I'm being so anal with details now so that when it comes time for the wedding everything wil bein it's place.

 

OK I'm back to work today, So I'll TTYL.

Hi everyone! I am a cruise bride sailing on NCL the weekend of Oct. 16 through Oct. 19! We are going to get married on Oct. 17, 2009 at Nassau, Bahamas and thanks to all of the great information on BDW I will not be booking my wedding through "The Wedding Experience".

Also I want to thank Ashley for highlighting the fact of obtaining a passport card vs. a passport! Thanks! This option is going to help out my guest! So far I have secured a very good rate through Liberty Travel for my guest, which I highly recommend you touch bases with a travel agent because they will give you a better group rate than if you go directly with cruise line. I look forward to sharing information with everyone in the coming months….Ceci

Hi Everyone!

 

Nobody is posting in the Mexico Cruise Wedding forums so I'm going to jump in over here... same idea right! I've just started planning my wedding via a 7-day Mexican Riviera Cruise and I'm so excited.

 

I was wondering how many of you are using a travel agent or wedding planner? Or are you just handling all the booking on your own? Also, has anyone used DestinationWeddings.com?

 

Thanks!

 

Jaime
