FAQs
Question
When do I need to RSVP by?
Answer
Please RSVP as soon as possible if you are attending the wedding, but no later than March 28, 2025, so that we can provide the ship a final guest list. You can always let us know later on if you are staying for the cruise. From Royal Caribbean -- "Non-sailing guests not on the list will not be allowed on the ship. There are no exceptions."
Question
Do I have to go on the cruise to attend the wedding?
Answer
No. You may attend the wedding even if you don't go on the cruise with us. We still love you. However, get off the ship by 2:30 PM if you're not going on the cruise. You must RSVP by March 28, 2025 so that we can add you to the ship's guest list. According to Royal Caribbean, non-sailing guests who are not on the guest list will not be allowed on the ship.
