FH and I have never been on a Cruise and are now thinking of doing one for our HM... Can any of you ladies who have been on cruises recommend your favorites?
TIA!

Re: Cruise Question....
they are AMAZING!!!!!!!! i thoroughly recommend them! if you are planning on staying in the carribean, do a Royal Carribbean - they have so many on board activities! and now is the time to buy because so many of the tickets are dirt cheap now! Also, around the time you get married, its not really peak season anymore so you should be able to get them for cheaper, if not, FM me because i have several sites that give you awesome deals instead of booking directly with the company itself! you can experience so many different countries/cities and still have a world class hotel at your fingertips! and food is included!!!!!!!!!
i though you guys were going to do a 'snowy' HM?

Re: Cruise Question....
I would DEFINITELY saw Norweigan! They have 'freestyle dining' so you can eat whenever you want with whoever you want--no set time, and you don't have to eat with other people if you don't want to! I wanted to do a cruise for our HM but FH wanted to do something new, since we've been on cruises before. They are awesome!
I always book with this website:
www.vacationstogo.com
Also, I would recommend not going on the cruise that only goes to Port Cavaveral, Nassau- Bahamas and Great Stirrup Cay--the ports of call weren't that great. I would say do one to Mexico or the Carribean!

I totally agree with this! if you are going to the Carribean, then do the southern islands, like Aruba, St. Lucia, St. Croix, St. Thomas, St. Marteen (the Dutch side)..etc...or Mexico!
those islands in the Bahamas really kinda suck

Re: Cruise Question....
Thank you all so much!!!!! We were going to do a snowy HM to go boarding and snowmobiling and stuff but FH said we can easily do that anytime during the winter which is true so I agreed to do a cruise since neither of us have ever been..
We want to do a Carribbean Cruise but Im also worried about Hurrican Season, Our Wedding is September..
What are the 'safe' months?

Re: Cruise Question....
technically, Hurricane season in from May to November but you can't worry about stuff like that. buy trip insurance and your covered against natural disasters. although the islands in the southern carribean do not get hit by hurrican'e like the bahamas and like PR do.
anything can go wrong at any time, so just think positive and have fun!

Re: Cruise Question....
wait, what happened to the icy honeymoon?
FH and I cruise ALL the time! We've been on about 6 together. I personally love them, but you need to be someone that doesn't mind being held to a schedule. FH loves it bc he can eat as much as he wants, no questions asked. Feel free to FM me if you have any questions!

Re: Cruise Question....
We absolutely love Princess!!!!!!!!!! If you like an older crowd do them. The food on Princess is amazing!!!!! They also have movies under the stars where you can layout in the lounge chairs by the pool and jacuzzi and watch movies on a massive screen. They also have popcorn and blankets for you!!!!!!! If you want any advise on other lines I will be more then happy to share my experiences! We booked our HM cruise through cruisecompete.com. We got the best deal from them and we got a great travel agent from it. I would not worry about hurricane season, I have went on cruises during hurricane season and everything was fine.

Re: Cruise Question....
I've been on Norwegain and Royal Caribbean and I have to say the entertainment is better on Royal. My parents have been on the above 2 mentioned as well as Carnival which they said sucks and Celebrity which they said was the best cruise line out of those 4.
