fwbpastor Posted January 30, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Hello! I am taking my wife on the Getaway May 24th. We are celebrating our 15th wedding anniversary while on board. I was hoping some of you could share some tips or ideas on how to make this cruise as romantic as possible! Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kdiamond55 Posted January 30, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Congrats on 15 years, it's my 15th later in the year as well. We're going on the Getaway in a few weeks. I plan on doing some romantic stuff also, I am thinking of renting a cabana in Vibe as a surprise. I'm also bringing aboard his favorite wine (Caymus). Does she like wine? Possibly have nice wine or champagne sent to the stateroom. Also, do one of the nicer specialty restaurants and tell them it's your anniversary. You can have the anniversary package delivered to your room, or maybe beforehand ask the restaurant to set up your table. No idea if they'll do it but it would be worth asking.

fwbpastor Posted January 30, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Thanks for the great ideas, a cabana would be awesome! As for the spa, we got a spa balcony room. I am hoping it will be great!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blondie008 Posted January 30, 2014 #5 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Crystal is the traditional gift for 15 years - perhaps a crystal gift (champagne glasses perhaps) from ship's stores? Or crystal jewellery - something swarovski? Congratulations - we renewed our wedding vows on our 15th - was very special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedoc29ca Posted January 30, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 30, 2014 We recently celebrated our 15th anniversary aboard the Norwegian Sky. I had ordered through myNCL a dozen roses for our arrival and chocolate covered strawberries for another day. Additionally when making the booking our TA asked if we were celebrating anything special. We received a complimentary bottle of champagne and cake during our first specialty dinner.

Rdtbank Posted January 31, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2014 We have a spa balcony for the November 8 cruise of the Getaway. I would love to hear all about your cabin and the spa. Pictures would be awesome along with your review. For some romantic ideas I would suggest flowers and wine which you could buy ahead of time and they could be in the cabin before you get there. Also a long, mushy note telling your wife how much she means to you would be a big hit! Hope you have an awesome cruise!

shepherdqueen Posted January 31, 2014 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Congratulations on 15 years! This year marks 12 for us. Our first cruise was for our anniversary. I had the room decorated and a cake waiting as a surprise for my husband. You can order that on the website ahead of time. :) PS Am I right to assume that you are a pastor? I am a church secretary for two parishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godiva830 Posted January 31, 2014 #9 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I celebrated my 40th bday onboard the Breakaway. My bf made my bday really special. Before our cruise he bought me a Louis Vuitton purse and somehow without me seeing it, brought it onboard and hid it under the bed. On the day of my bday he had the gift at the restaurant and he ordered a cake from Carlos's Bakery and arranged for a ship photographer to come and take pics of my gift and cake being brought out to me. Also, my parents ordered the bday package decorations for my cabin. It was all decorated when we got onboard. That bday was a very memorable bday. Celebrating onboard the Breakaway and being in Bermuda was the best bday ever. This idea can easily be done for an anniversary :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwbpastor Posted January 31, 2014 Author #10 Share Posted January 31, 2014 These are all such great ideas!! I hadnt thought of getting her something crystal! I will have to consider that. Sheperdqueen you are RIGHT! I am a Pastor :) We mentioned to our PCC that we were celebrating and hopefully she will take care of getting us something for the room. I am considering the romance package or the honeymoon package as well. Thank you all for welcoming me to the board!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sure you will love it! Just remember to keep an open mind (shouldn't be too difficult for a pastor :D ) Vacations are usually what you make of them. Have Fun and enjoy each other. Happy Anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
