Tomorrow is our wedding anniversary! Well, the legal one, the ceremony was in March. We would have had them together, but Royal Caribbean decided to make it impossible to get married on the ship which resulted in a quick trip the courthouse a few months before the ceremony. I'm kind of amazed that it's been … Continue reading One Year!
One of the nicest things about our wedding was that we actually had time to spend with friends and family (since we were on a week-long cruise). It was great to get both sides of the family together and gave us plenty of time to actually enjoy everyone's company. Craziness included (but was not limited … Continue reading Shipboard shenanigans
The last port on our wedding cruise was in Willemstad, Curacao. It was my favorite port! Maybe because I was able to actually relax and be lazy for the first time on the trip. We got off the ship and wandered around a bit. It was just like being in Europe, but warm! I loved … Continue reading Beach day in Curacao
The day after the wedding we were in Aruba and a whole bunch of us decided to go snorkeling. I actually hate snorkeling, but I like my friends and family, so I went along. We had a fun boat ride out, and got to snorkel around a reef and then around a really cool shipwreck. … Continue reading Aruba – Snorkeling and Adventure
After the wedding ceremony was over we had a "photoshoot" and then it was time to party! We really just wanted a fun reception with no dancing since Anthony and I hate dancing in front of people. The last thing we wanted was people staring at us during our "first dance" or whatever. So we … Continue reading Wedding Reception
I was totally dreading our wedding ceremony. 1) We didn't get to practice and 2) I hate people staring at me. Fortunately, the wedding director understood and helped keep it short and simple. I walked down the aisle to an acoustic version of Iris (Goo Goo Dolls), and we stuck to the "default" ceremony words … Continue reading Wedding Ceremony
The morning of the wedding I was less than thrilled about having to dress up and be stared at. It's kind of my least favorite thing--a bunch of people staring at me when I'm just supposed to stand there. Awkward. I put off getting ready for as long as I could, but eventually I had … Continue reading Before the Wedding
I was excited to get to Saint Kitts because I heard that they had beautiful beaches and a rain forest. And who doesn't want to go in a rain forest?! But I have to say, my first impression was not good. As soon as we got off the ship we were bombarded with taxi drivers … Continue reading Saint Kitts – Rain Forest and Beach
One of the things I really wanted to do on the cruise was go ziplining. We missed the signup deadline before the cruise, so when we got on board the original ziplines we'd planned on doing were sold out (in Saint Kitts), and we had to re-arranged our plans. Anthony, Eric, and I went ziplining … Continue reading Ziplining in Saint Thomas
Here are just a few photos from our wedding! Despite all the stress and drama before the wedding, the wedding itself turned out pretty well, and we had a lot of fun! I do think that if it had been JUST the wedding I would have been really disappointed because things still went wrong... But … Continue reading Wedding Snapshots
