Extraordinary destination wedding ideas: breathtaking ceremonies in exotic locales
The top 5 reasons why a cruise ship provides the ultimate wedding experience
DETROIT (Mar. 12, 2013) - If you are planning a wedding, now is the time to get your details in order. It can be daunting to know where to start; however, if you want a beautiful locale, expert wedding planners and gorgeous details, the experts at CruiseCompete suggest you consider using one of the cruise lines for your upcoming wedding and honeymoon.
The top 5 reasons to consider a cruise line wedding are:
1. Weddings are a big business for the cruise lines, and they have spent years developing programs that allow the betrothed to enjoy a gorgeous on-board or destination wedding - without all the headache of planning every detail themselves.
2. Concerned that not everyone will be able to attend an onboard wedding? Here's a neat option to include everyone: Princess Cruises has a state-of-the-art technology that allows you to broadcast the ceremony live, via their "Wedding Web Cams," to friends and family that couldn't make the ceremony in person for some reason.
3. Wedding experts have already done the tedious work. Lines like NCL and Royal Caribbean are excellent choices that provide beautiful packages with the added bonus of a professional wedding planner. You need only select the individual details that will make your wedding that once-in-a-lifetime experience.
4. The most recent study by the wedding aficionados at The Knot suggest that wedding prices are on the rise for the first time in years. If you are working within a budget, various packages provided by the mainstream lines allow you to control expenses with a pre-planned ceremony.
5. In keeping with their philosophy, packages aboard luxury lines, like Cunard, will cost more but are guaranteed to offer a stately venue with all the traditional accoutrements, and rival even the finest land-based counterparts.
Another added benefit of a cruise line wedding is the option to have your wedding en route to, or at, a beautiful destination. After all, some of the most gorgeous wedding locales in the world are typically part of cruise line itineraries.
