FAQs
Question
Do I have to sail to come to the wedding?
Answer
Absolutely not! We would love for you to come on the cruise, but we know that not everyone is able too. You can just attend the ceremony and reception and leave before the cruise departs.
Question
What do I need to bring if I'm not sailing?
Answer
If you are a non-sailing guest then you need to bring a valid drivers license or passport. They will not let you on the ship if you do not have this. We will also need your Date of Birth and license number prior to the big day.
Question
What do I need if I plan on sailing?
Answer
The cruise does go out of the country so every sailing guest would need a valid passport. There is also a list of suggested items and banned items on the Carnival website.
Question
What time do I have to arrive to board the ship?
Answer
We all need to be there between 10-10:30am. We all will receive priority boarding so that we can have the most time to enjoy the wedding. This applies for all sailing AND non-sailing guests.
Question
When do we need to RSVP?
Answer
All guests, sailing and non-sailing need to RSVP before June 25. Carnival needs the list 4 weeks before the wedding or they will not let everyone board.
Question
Where do we park?
Answer
There is a parking garage at the port that everyone can park at.
Question
What cruise should I book and how?
Answer
We have a great travel agent named Vickie! She can help you book the cruise and make everything as easy as possible for you. Please get in touch with her with any booking problems or questions.
Question
Where should I stay if my party wants to stay overnight in the city before the wedding?
Answer
We will have a block of rooms at the Hilton Garden Inn. The information for the hotel is on the travel page. You can also contact Vickie for any travel plans that you need help with.
Question
Why do we have to arrive so early?
Answer
The wedding is at 1pm and we are arriving at 10am so that we can all get on the ship before the other passengers. The lido deck is open to all sailing and non-sailing guests and there will be a buffet for all of the guests.
