Cruise ship weddings have a very good claim to fame. They take all of the work out of planning a wedding. As a silver lining effect: more of the wedding dollars go into the honeymoon! These are idea for a couple who really wants a nice wedding and even nicer honeymoon but doesn’t have a long guest list. These cruise ship weddings can be tailored to accommodate people with more extensive guest lists though, especially in shore side or beach variants.

A couple could book one of these in a location that is affordable for guests to reach and still take advantage of cruise ship weddings. At first gasp the price tag looks a bit high but they really weigh in pretty competitively with traditional wedding services. These packages offer most of the basic accouterments of a nice ceremony but they make the planning greatly scaled back.

They typically offer gown & tux rental, Champaign, flowers, hors d’oeurves, cake, music, marriage license service, preacher, pictures or video. Some of the more elaborate extras cost more but the price and convenience are pretty much on an even keel. Many cruise lines offer beach weddings in convenient locations that allow friends and relatives to book cruise passage for the wedding. Florida and Texas beach weddings are pretty affordable destinations. It may seem like a lot to ask the wedding party to pay for a cruise to watch your wedding vows but look a little closer at this option. If they are likely to spend an equal amount on a similar trip then maybe this is something that they would actually enjoy.

Maybe the only question is, “where does everyone want to go?” It is just possible that most everyone who would be invited to the wedding is looking for something to do on vacation. Attending your beach wedding just might be the unique vacation that they have been looking for.

Cruises are considered by many to be the epitome in pampering. The whole notion of sailing through calm waters and occasionally making port in welcoming exotic ports is the stuff that has created many successful cruise lines throughout the world. In this new blog there will be lots of information and some commentary about every conceivable aspect of cruise lines and the services that they provide. Hopefully there will be something in these future entries for everyone. This is the goal even if you never intend to take a cruise then perhaps you can at least dream a little.

Some of the aspects of cruises that will probably be worth reading about here are destinations, accommodations, entertainment, meals and perhaps most importantly of all costs. Not just which cruise lines are the cheapest but which cruise lines will give the most value for each and every hard earned dollar spent. We could probably all find a cruise in a rusty old bucket to an off season destination in which all the attractions were closed and we were only served saltines. Hopefully this suits someone’s needs but this blog won’t recommend that sort of thing no matter what the cost.

The interest here is to obtain maximum value and to optimize vacation time which is, in and of itself, a very valuable commodity.

Cruise lines are pretty experienced at what they do. They’ve been around for a long time and have many happily pampered customers. Balmy breezes and calypso music run like hot and cold water from the tap of cruise vacations. No body does vacation better than the cruise lines.

Shuffle board, endless buffets, lounge chairs on deck-cruise lines have made inclusives the industry standard. One price usually covers every whim. Cruise lines have anticipated every possible whim and usually make options available before the vacationing guest barely forms the words, “I want…”
