Question about planning Vow Renewal on RCCL


Recommended Posts

For those of you who have already done your vow renewal or are planning there vow renewal, I have a couple of questions for you.

 

My wife and I and two kids are taking a cruise the 4th to 11th of June. (West Car. Rhapsody out of Galveston) we are celebrating several things, Son's graduation from High School (May 23rd) wife's birthday (May 29th) 14th Anniversary (June 6th), and my birthday (June 10th).

 

My question is this!! while on this cruise I plan on asking my wife to renew our vows on our 15th Wedding Anniversary, while on a RCCL Cruise of course. The reason that I am asking, is that while we were planning our wedding I was in the military and out of the country while she did all of the work planning the wedding. Also, for the first 10 years we were married, I was still in the service and drug her all over the country. I was constantly traveling while she was the rock that kept our family running. I retired in 2003, however since then, it seems like we have been in constant turmoil with finding jobs, buying our house and getting everrything together, etc. etc. etc. I want her to know how much I appreciate all she has done to keep this family so stong.

 

I am usually pretty good about coming up with something romantic or fun at times like this, however this time I just cannot decide. Some of the ideas that I am thing about are as follows:

 

1. On the first formal night, 5 June, asking her if she will marry be again, during dinner in the dining room. Of course I would set something up with the waiters, etc. such as having them deliver an ring, while I get down on my knee to propose.

 

2. On the date of our Anniversary, we will be in Key West. Last year we were there and went on the most amazing sunset cruise, I was thinking of booking the sunset cruise again, and during the cruise right about sunset, getting down on one knee and asking her to marry me again with the sunset in the background.

 

3. Having sort of a scavenger hunt on the first sea day, sort of along the lines of "The Amazing Race" without racing. Some of the items on the Scavnger hunt would be a spa treatment, with massage, facial, etc. A trip to one of the on board shops for dresses, etc. A trip to the Salon for hair and makeup, followed up my before dinner drinks.. and then to the formal night, possibly having the waiter deliver something to her that there is a special event in one of the lounges where we would go and then I would propose.

 

So what do you all think? Any suggestions that you all might have for me to make this the most special occasion.

 

Thanks
