  1. I'm thinking about a cruise too. My ideas were to take a five day cruise. It's cheeper and you don't have to deal with the family for too long after your married. (You need some alone time!) I have also heard from family members that if they are going to spend time and money to go on a vacation wedding with us that they want to have an actual vacation and not some little quick thing like a 2, 3 or even a 4 day cruise. I guess if they are going to travel away, they want to get a trip out of it. ( But do what you want. It's your wedding and that is what everyone is there for anyways) I wanted to have at least three ports of call. the first port people can go do what ever off board activities they want to do, the second port I wanted to arrange a group activity for everyone or at least for the close family and bridal party. The last port! The wedding and reception. I found most cruise lines offer a reception with an open bar for extra money. Try looking into that if you want to treat your guests to a reception. If I choose just two ports. I will spend the first port doing an orginized activity and hopefully there will still be time for everyone to enjoy an activity of their choice as well. I also wanted to look into putting a gift basket in all my guest's staterooms. I'm not sure what the cruise would let me bring on the boat or how that would work. I would have to look into it but I would like to create an itinerary to go in the basket. I would add to the ships itinerary any extra orginized events I was planning such as dinners or activities so that people are aware of what is going to happen on their trip. Also, I was planning to put a thank you card in the basket as well. Finally, my concern after I am married is that I will want the HM to start right away and the idea of running into family and friends after the reception will not be cool. So to deal with this situation I decided to get married at the last port because you'll usually only have one full day left with your famly milling around before you return to port. After the crusie I want to ship everyone home and stay in the port for a few days before flying home, as a mini HM. I was looking into Mami, FL for that. South Beach! Hope this helps. I'm sure your wedding will be perfect any way you do it. Tianna
  2. Thank you so much for your ideas! I never thought of a Disney Cruise. I'll have to bring that up to my fiance. We love Disney and so does his family! I'll check out some of the websites you posted too. My mother said she would take care of the baby but I feel bad because I want her to be able to have some fun too. I don't want her to feel as if she is a babysitter and not on vacation. The only thing I could think of to fix the situation is to work it out with someone in his family to take the baby for a day so she could have some time off. But then I feel as if I'm imposing on them. I'm sure I will figure it out. I love the Sandals idea if we stay at Beeches. We will have to get away from the kids for a little bit or else I'll spend my entire HM playing mommy roleand not the new wife role. Does that make since? Anyways, thanks again for the posts! I'll let you know what we decide. Tianna

  4. Hello All! My name is Tianna and my fiance's name is Salvatore. We live in PA and have been engaged for two years. He propsed on a horse and carriage ride in downtown Philadelphia right as we approched the National Consitution Center. It was awesome. I am currently looking into where our wedding is going to be. Money is a factor. I am thinking a cruise with a wedding in the Bahamas or Jamaica. A was also thinking Beeches Negril. If you have any suggestions of where to go let me know. I don't have a date yet either. We do have children that will be traveling with us. Our daughtor is 9M old and his son is 9 Years old. Planning for their travel is as important as planing for our travel so that is why I thought Beeches would be nice or a Royal Carribian Cruise because they have daycares and accomidate small infants. My concern is getting somewhat of a honeymoon with all the family and the kids nearby. Any suggestions? Glad to be here. Tianna
