Shore side cruise weddings

Megan, on September 27, 2012 at 12:53 PM Posted in Planning 0 3

Who has been married shore side during a cruise? I'd like to hear your thoughts, tips and tricks, reviews, and so on. I've only really been able to find reviews of those who have gotten married on the actual ship. If you get married shore-side, is it just you, your guests, and the officiant and no decor? Does the cruiseline set up transport for all of your guests or just the bride and groom? Would you reccommend using the wedding planner on the ship or just contacting a local planner?

    Where would you get married shoreside? I've never heard of that. I know lots of people who have gotten married on the ship before it leaves port, and guests who aren't cruising get off.

    As someone who cruises frequently, I'm not sure shoreside is a good idea. The ports are really crowded, loud and chaotic. Not sure where you could find some privacy to have a ceremony without getting interrupted by screaming kids, luggage caddies and honking taxi cabs.

    I would think the ship's wedding planner will only help with weddings held on the ship. They aren't going to know the stuff on the shore side.
