FAQs

Question

Wedding Date & Location

Answer

The wedding will take place onboard the ship on day four of the cruise.

Question

Are children allowed?

Answer

Absolutely! Children are not only allowed, but highly encouraged to join us. A cruise offers so many fun and exciting activities just for kids—from water parks and shows to kids’ clubs and games. We truly believe this will be a memorable experience for guests of all ages.

Question

When should I arrive?

Answer

We recommend arriving in Port Canaveral (or nearby Orlando) at least one day before the cruise departs—so no later than April 2nd, 2027—to avoid travel delays. We’ll share hotel recommendations and meeting points soon

Question

Do I need a passport to go on this cruise?

Answer

While a passport is highly recommended, some U.S. citizens may be able to cruise with a government-issued photo ID AND a certified birth certificate. We strongly suggest getting a passport to avoid any issues at ports of call or in case of emergency. https://www.msccruisesusa.com/manage-booking/before-you-go/travel-documents-visas

Question

How do I book my cruise?

Answer

Go to the BOOKING tab for more information. All cruise bookings must be made individually by each guest or family. While we’ll provide the ship details, sailing dates, and helpful travel information, you are responsible for reserving your own cabin and managing your booking directly with the cruise line MSC Cruises 1 (877) 665-4655

Question

Can I prepay gratuities for the cruise?

Answer

Yes, gratuities are not automatically included at booking. You must call MSC Cruises 1 (877) 665-4655 to get the exact amount and pay in advance. We highly recommend prepaying, as gratuities will otherwise be charged to your onboard account during the cruise.

Question

How Will I Receive Updates?

Answer

Please check the wedding website regularly for updates as they become available. All guests with confirmed bookings will also receive text updates with important information about the cruise and wedding events.

Question

I have a question about the wedding or cruise—how should I contact you?

Answer

Please email us at hughwedding2027@gmail.com with any wedding- or cruise-related questions. We kindly ask that you do not call or text us regarding wedding details.

Question

Do cruises offer any promotions or discounts?

Answer

Yes! Cruises often offer amazing promotions throughout the year, especially if you book early. Some of the most popular promotions include: Kids Sail Free – On most sailings, kids cruise for free, and you’ll only be responsible for paying their taxes and fees. This makes it a great deal for families! Early Booking Discounts – Booking your cabin early not only gives you the best selection but often comes with the lowest prices. Reduced Deposits & Onboard Credit – Some promotions may include reduced deposits or added onboard credit to use during your cruise. We highly encourage you to book early to take advantage of these limited-time offers. If you have any issues booking a promotion or want to make sure you're getting the best deal, please contact MSC Cruises directly for assistance. 1 (877) 665-4655
