A honeymoon cruise is a great way to start off your
marriage. By booking on a cruise you’ll get an all inclusive honeymoon.
Transport, accommodation, meals, entertainment and activities are all
part and
parcel of what you get when paying your cruise fare. The advantage
of this is knowing pretty much what your honeymoon is going to cost,
because about 80% of the total cost of taking a cruise holiday is
in the cruise fare.
Compare this to resort type holidays where there
are a lot of unknowns and uncontrollable factors like the prices the
restaurant may charge
for dining and use of certain facilities. The true cost of your honeymoon
is all the little extras you pay for (after the main components of
flights and accommodation) that you throw on the credit card
and arrives in the
post a month after your return!
The sea and cruising has always been
synonymous with romance. It is often said the gentle movement
of the sea and the lapping of the water
create
an atmosphere between loved ones that can't be replicated on land.
Popular cruise destinations for honeymoons tend to be the
warmer climates - the likes of Tahiti, Fiji, South Pacific,
Queensland coast, the Mediterranean
and the Caribbean. The likes of Fiji is mostly small ship cruising
and it is common for honeymooners to charter ships for 5 or 6 days
and enjoy
the pristine destination with family and friends.
Weddings and honeymoons
can be combined. The above situation is a good example but
some large ships (Grand Princess, Golden Princess and Star
Princess) actually have wedding chapels onboard. Fantastic for those
who only want a small wedding party present …. Or perhaps want
to elope! The wedding arrangements are sold as a separate package from
the cruise itself and start at about $1500 USD.
It is also possible
to get married on a cruise but not on a ship. This generally occurs
at one of the destinations visited and the marriage
license and wedding arrangements are made in advance.
