Love Never Stops on Princess
Love Never Stops. Every year, there are approximately 2.4 million weddings. And of those, 16 percent are destination weddings. There’s no doubt that this trend is growing by leaps and bounds. Today, more and more couples decide to steer clear of traditional weddings and ‘get away from it all’, saying their vows at sea surrounded by family and friends.So Why Marry Away?
Getting married on a beautiful beach, at an Italian villa or even far out at sea simply creates once-in-a-lifetime memories. But if that’s not reason enough, destination weddings are far easier to plan than one would think.
They're Virtually Stress-Free
Resorts and cruise lines have made it easier and more appealing to wed on-site. Many have full-time wedding coordinators who will handle every little detail of your dream destination wedding. In fact, cruise ships are considered one of the best and most stress-free choices. Many cruise lines offer a choice of exotic destinations around the world to wed. But only one truly lets you marry at sea—Princess Cruises. Princess is the only major North American cruise line that has a unique “Tie the Knot at Sea” wedding program, where the ship captain will pronounce you “man and wife” (see inset for details).
They're Cost Effective
Size alone will save hundreds of dollars. Destination weddings are more intimate than a traditional wedding. Plus, traveling to somewhere exotic to get married doubles as a honeymoon. A couple typically spends on average $20,000 for a destination wedding. That’s a $10,000 savings over traditional weddings. That means, money left over to start their new lives together.
They're Perfect for "I do, take two"
Been there, done that. That’s typically the attitude of couples who are planning a second or third wedding. Encore weddings are typically smaller and more intimate. For the most part, uniting two families and building family ties is what is most important. Destination weddings encourage the involvement of children. And after the “I dos”, the children can continue their bonding experiences with all the fun activities on the ship.
They're a Once-in-a-Lifetime Reunion
Destination weddings are a great opportunity to bring close friends and family together. The experience alone is very intimate. During traditional weddings, there are many guests to attend to and after a few hours, they are gone. The conversations are quick and the memories, lackluster. Enjoy each other and the company of friends and family. After all, a destination wedding is a vacation for all!
