My Wedding

I’ve been wanting to get married for a while now and we’ve been discussing this for many years,  I’ve always dreamed about what wedding i would like, would it be a church wedding, civil ceremony or even a wedding aboard?

I always wanted the big church wedding my dad walking me down the aisle and then all my family and friends at the big do after. But how expensive is it nowadays I know you can get special offers on many hotel’s now at very good prices, but when you work it out the special offers at a hotel then your honeymoon and its got to be somewhere really special?  But when you’ve added it all up together your talking about £10,000 to have one day. I know it will only ever happen once will I hope (ha ha) but £10,000 is a lot of money and then you’ve got all the dresses the suits the flowers the list is never ending and I just can’t begrudge  spending that on my wedding.

Then I came across getting married on a cruise ship how fantastic would that be being on your kind of honeymoon and getting married all on one place. Seeing different places everyday. Now after doing some home work on this I found out that the only day you can get married is on sailing date due to the laws but that doesn’t bother me, think it would be really good for the photo’s and very romantic.

If you was to get married on a P&O Ship you would just pay for your cruise then £1750.00 including all your fee’s for your wedding so all in all you would pay roughly about £4500.00 and you’ve got your holiday/honeymoon and your wedding for under £5000.00. Now doesn’t that make more money sense to do something like this, Well it would to me , I love the idea of it but it did really bother me thinking would it really be my day or would it be just like a conveyor belt one wedding after another and what would you do for the sit down meal would you just eat in the normal restaurants with everyone else or would they give you an area and corner it off so it’s nice a private.

But after thinking about it for the past three years and going back and forth from getting married onboard, away on a land holiday or here in the UK we have finally decided we are doing it here and are going to see our second venue in September and hopefully, we’ll be booking our date for September 2019.

I will keep you posted to what date we have set but I’m finally getting really excited about it. even more so as we’ve just been to our Friends wedding in London.
