Gurl this is TOTALLY up to YOU, and how YOU work/plan it...................

Tipping can be from $20 and Up and then I have had people not give anything.. You dont know how All your services are going to go, SO I would but a amount (up to u & your Partner) and have someone that you Truly Trust ready to give out OR not give out the Money... You ALSO need to think about your Pix Package as well (IF ) you are getting them...

DO you Drink, Yall Smoke, did you add in Your Tip for the Stateroom/dinning room people (some folks pre pay that), (miami) When yall go out for Dinner will You Go alllllll out OR something small,,, (i would check living social, etc for coupons too.. there are just sooo many things to think about..

THIS IS MY ANSWER: AT LEAST $2500. AT LEAST!!!!! It can be cheaper or higher, depending on what u cut or add.. DONT FORGET YOU WILL BE GETTING GIFT'S AT YOUR WEDDING!!!!!!!! WE LADIES FORGET THE $$$$ GIFT'S THAT COME AND HELP.. OR YOU CAN TELL SOME PEOPLE TO GO ON CARNIVAL.COM AND GIVE YALL CARNIVAL BUCK/ OR BUY YOU A BOTTLE/ ETC

Hope that help.. Congrats and have a FAB Wedding..

HEEEEEEY EVERYONE,

It's been a min since I have been up here.. (KEEPING IT REAL) Once YOU do get Married you really wont be up here that much.. BUT I did meet some WONDERFUL BRIDE SISTER'S DURING MY TIME HERE. (It's like season's you talk and bond for a year or plus OR less, then you get Married and the next set of Brides move in on the board's). I Got Married on the Breeze Back on Sept 8, 2013.... Sasha was Really Good.. I have a Review Some where on this Site, But if U go to my Name and search ALL comment's or something u should see it.. IF i can help any of you, PLEASE let me know.. In case im not up here just email me.. allaboutthis04 at yahoo dot com...

REMEMBER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS DAY IS ABOUT YOU AND YOUR PARTNER, NO1 ELSE.. FRIENDS WILL/CAN BACK OUT, HAVE THEIR WAY THEY THINK THINGS SHOULD RUN, AND YOU EVEN CAN LOOSE SOME FRIENDS, BUT GUESS WHAT A REAL FRIEND WILL BE RIGHT BY YOU ASKING YOU THE WHOLE WAY WHAT DO YOU NEED ME TO DO, AND MEAN IT :)

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE, AND CONGRATS TO THOSE THAT ALREADY GOT MARRIED..

Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im so very happy for you... I got married on her sept 8, 2013 and it was wonderful.... Ty for your review...

1/3 IS MY BDAY SO YALL HAVE A BALL. I WILL BE CRUISING ON BREEZE 1/11/2015 BRING HER BACK IN ONE PIECE PLEASE :) LOL..

Awwwwww, Thanks Boo.. This is what its all about . Supporting each other.. Im Just happy I could help you in any way.. Ok now Im gonna finish this Review. CONGRAT"S Bride Sister..

Aww- thank you all so much! I've been working on the review for a few hours. A lot of the pics are still uploading to shutterfly, but I'll go ahead and start with the boring stuff. :P

 

As most of you all know, we went all out planning our wedding. I love planning events and making people happy, and our cruise wedding was the golden opportunity. I spent countless hours scouring forums, pinterest, and every other avenue I could imagine planning. I'd really like to thank my fellow brides here on CC (Shatima and Cruisebrides come to mind) for all of their hard work posting and answering every question. :) I've decided to do a planning "blog", starting from the very beginning, in hopes that I will help other brides and grooms as much as they've helped me. :)

 

Our Story:

 

Bill and I started dating in November, 2011. Everything was going fabulous, but shortly after, in January, 2012 I was offered a job as a civilian contractor in Afghanistan. It was a big opportunity for me that I couldn't turn down. Much to Bill's dismay (and secretly mine), I deployed to Afghanistan in February to support Operation Enduring Freedom as an administrator for the postal contract.

 

This is me, in Ali Al Salim, Kuwait. I was waiting to board my flight to Afghanistan.

Um Where is YOUR Review Doll?? I want to hear about everything Breeze..

For all the money they charge, they should edit all pics!

My Business has been going great!!! I saved my Last customer $450 on their Cruise... Word Of Mouth is everything, And how U treat people :)///

I did wear my Shorter 2nd dress on dinner night....

Party Buss~ OH I got ALLLL Of what I was suppose too, trust that.. I think it ended up coming to &7 ish almost $800 (bad mind, lol) I wished I would have put the whole total in..

Please dont forget I DONT get up here alot, BUT since the cruise is coming up I will be here until Jan after it.. But yall know u can ALWAYS reach me on my personal email allaboutthis04 at yahoo dot com......Everyone Take care and Safe Travels, Im going to READ & RE READ some Breeze Reviews...

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey Every1,

Omgossssssssssssh I have been on Facebook, and starting up my Traveling Business that I havent been up here since Jan 30, 2014 gesssssh.. How is everyone doing.. Marriage life is well over her. for our DC date (which will be our MAIN date) we went to Las Vegas for our 1 Year, MAn we had sooooo much fun... I even sent some of my Friends down there on a 4d/3n deal for $99..

To all the Comments I miss Thanks so much, I'm glad U like it, and that I could help../ I'm always here if you need anything.. facebook dot com backslash travel time with shatima or allaboutthis04 at Yahoo dot com.. Sending Hugs & Kisses,,,

Sorry Im not on here alot like I use to.. Research has changed from Weddings to New Family.. :D:D I had TWO tables with fabric

For Lengths/Cake info You should for sure hit up your Wedding Lady at Carnival..

Please check out my Pictures to see. what I put on the Table.,,

Some quick questions...

 

How many tables did you cover with fabric? How did you find out the lengths?

 

When requesting your cake who did you email?

 

What items did you place on your tables?

Hey y'all just wondering if anybody had set up there own camcorder to record the wedding or if that would not be allowed. I mean if a guest is recording would it not be the same thing? I know they say no professional people from outside are allowed. I just don't want to have to pay for the videographer. Thanks

So Just have one of your Friends hold it for you.. They DONT know who is Pro and who isn't. They just don't want them to bring a lot of Equipment, But then again a Bride DID have some backdrops and she got away with it :) SO do you.. Good Luck..

Hee Ladies,

And NO TY Twin. Yall I have been SO SICK I haven't looked at a computer in 4 daysssssss... But Gurl Noo If you look at my pix on FB, YOu will see my Hair, nor my Make up was done b 4 hand.. lol Now My Sister (MOH) had her Makeup done b 4 hand. BUT we didn't get dressed until after some Drinks, and my make up.. She HAD PLENTY of time to run around for me,

That's what Im saying.. Any Soon to be Brides, PLEASE bring this up while they are taking pix (or before they start. .. I would even try to get something in written,,, Then You remember I told yall he said I through a couple of extra pix in for you.. got back to the room and they were the ones I look a "Hotttt A** Mess" he was being R E A L L Y NICE NASTY, and hateful bc they only throw them away.. but its all good, it is what it is...

For all the money they charge, they should edit all pics!

NO he didn't.. and that's why I was PISSED! don't edit a pix that U like, U not paying for them I am, and they are My Life Long Pix. He was such a A hole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Soo rude, I don't have to edit these pix U do know that right, is what we kept saying.. I will BRING my own next time!!!!!

They didn't edit any of your pictures?!?!

 

Our guy did nearly all of ours even though he knew we weren't going to purchase everything. He even included a couple of the before's so we could see the difference(s).

I will say Make sure you put Someone else you really can trust in charge of YOUR phone.. I was getting all kinda calls about where are you walking in the port at, how long do we have to wait for this, blah blah.. If you have someone that you can trust PLEASE do so..

UMM I Pray you get the same gurl I did. she was soooo nice and helpful, and set things up how I wanted them well I had my mom make sure everything was right..

Paper work.. If you don't follow nooooooo advice following this: Print everything out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They had some of my people off the list or the names backwards..

When you leave the theater u will have to walk through so many people to get up stirs to the Club, gurl get your Thank You's ready... You will get a million..

Oh take someone around with you when you are getting your pix done, and if they have a mirror to hold for you that would be great too.. They don't Photoshop all pix or NONE if they don't want to my smart mouth guy said.. But u just want to make sure your gloss is good, your hair is in place, the girls are up, extra,...

im sooooo Happy for you and I cant wait to see your pix boooo.. Now GO DO THAT!!!! and never forget your 5 mins to your self, it will be a million things going on but for you and your thoughts they need to get CALM, the day will go SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO fast trust US past Brides, time would be the only thing I NEEEEDED/ WANTED / WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE MORE OFF...

Sooo Shatima, I'm 5 days out and freaking out but very excited. I am on the Breeze with the same locations as you. Any last minute advice? I got my call from Sasha but haven't heard anything from the WE so I am calling them this morning.

AND keeping it REAL.. U shouldn't feel bad about it.... It's Truly ok..

I didn't tip either I feel my wedding was do expensive already just wasn't any more money in the budget specially for 3 coordinators!

Top of the Morning,

To be honest I Didn't!!!! There was one gurl that stood out to me and we seen her everyday!!!! WE drop some to her.. BUT be clear thisis TOTAL on YOU And your Partner If you want to give You can and if you don't, YOu don't have to... To make it easier on you.. I would have one person to hold $$$ envelope's for you.. at the end of partying and before they start to clear/pack up I would just hand them the tip that way..

Good morning Shatima

 

I have a question for you in terms of tipping how did you handle this? This is all new to me.
