Royal Wedding Celebrations At Sea
Now I know some of my colleagues have already blogged about this but I wanted to as well as I am so excited and absolutely love the Royal Family. I think they are fantastic and make me feel very proud to be British. I was very excited to hear that the biggest wedding of the year is going to be televised live on the Princess ships on April 29th. It will be shown on the Movies Under the stars screens, which now feature on an impressive thirteen Princess ships.
Passengers will be able to follow coverage of the historic day broadcast by the BBC. The onboard viewing will also include British Style refreshments and special royal-themed cocktails. Passengers can test their knowledge on the Royal Family while participating in quizzes and there will also be a Kate and William look a like competition. It is very fitting that Princess are doing this as it was in fact Princess Diana who christened the original Royal Princess ship back in 1984.
If like Wills and Kate you are planning on getting married and don’t quite have the budget for Westminster Abbey, why don’t you consider taking your nuptials onboard a cruise. Not only do you get to have a wonderful and unique wedding but also have the advantage of being on your honeymoon already. It can be so easy to organise as most cruise lines will have a wedding specialist department that can arrange everything for you cake, ceremony, flowers the lot. They even organise the tuxedo rental and any spa treatments that you would need. Until recently, the only line that was able to host at-sea weddings, officiated by its captains, was Princess, whose ships are registered to Bermuda. Celebrity created new options for engaged cruisers when it re-registered its ships in Malta (except for Expedition), where new regulations permit legal marriages at sea. Azamara’s two ships are registered in Malta, as well. If you can’t get married at sea then you can arrange your ceremony in port. If you’re looking for a beautiful day and good value for money (weddings with princess start from $1200) then I think it is something to really consider. Don’t worry if your already married as you can get your vows renewed onboard and what a perfect excuse for a second honeymoon onboard a lovely ship.
I’m sure the atmosphere will be fantastic onboard on the day of the royal wedding, and I for one will be waving my flag high cheering on the happy couple.
