ShedQueen77 Posted December 10, 2007 #7 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Our guest count is just the two of us. Our coordinator is Lisa at Weddings...Beyond Your Imagination in Barbados. Package including: Beach location Limo Transport License/Official Documents Steel Pan Player Officiant Cascade bouquet and buttonhole for groom Floral Arch for the ceremony Sand ceremony 40 5X7 photos in an album including CD Videography AND the video 2 tier cake decorated with matching flowers and necessary supplies Champagne Lunch for two at an upscale local restaurant 2 hour limo tour of Barbados Delivery insurance on photos and video Gratuities Total: $3665 It may seem like a bit more than the Carnival packages, but this included the video and photos which is a LOT cheaper than what Carnival could have ever given me. Just the 40 photos alone would have put us over their basic offshore beach wedding package price of $1995 which didn't include the costs of photos and video. They wanted $695 for the video on top of that and God only knows how much for the photos! :) This also included limo transportation (not a taxi like TWE gives), lunch, an island tour, the 'upgraded' flowers (TWE is just the basic ones), the floral arch, the steel pan player, etc.. Those are all 'extra' costs with Carnival. Just wanted to explain the costs a little bit more in detail! :) ETA- We can have up to 25 guests at no additional cost.

briseis23 Posted December 10, 2007 #8 Share Posted December 10, 2007 About $5k for 52 people, which includes roundtrip transportation to our ceremony site on the island (we didn't book through the cruise line). This is for all the legal docs, officiant, location, decorations, flowers, mini reception (cake, champagne, fruit platter), photo and DVD package, dove release, and a fabulous wedding coordinator (TWJ). We are also doing a ship reception after dinner with 2 hour open bar and a DJ for about $1k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbear2 Posted December 10, 2007 #9 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Ours was about $1450 I believe on the Carnival Fantasy. We got the ceremony and 1 hour reception. Includes everything for the ceremony and reception, but not the license, which is only about $30. This is for 20 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamster808 Posted December 11, 2007 Author #11 Share Posted December 11, 2007 I have roughly estimated that in total we will spend around $5K on our wedding/recpetion. I was shocked that it cost this much! I guess I am just cheap. But my father has given me the money and told me to do as I wish so I am trying to spend a little as possible and keep the rest :).

terryvet9 Posted December 12, 2007 #15 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Carnival Ecstasy 12/01/07 Deluxe package about $1500.00-includes 20 people $79.00 for the extra people. $105 for D.J This included our cake, Dj, officiant, coordiantor and buffet. We also paid for 16 of our cruising guests. But you can get out reasonable if you pay for the wedding and your cruise only. We had a budget and were able to pay for our family to come and still be within our budget.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
