Have you ever thought of having your wedding on a cruise ship?

It would be a tremendously awesome experience for you, won’t it?

There are so many benefits. Beside providing yourself with a different wedding experience compared to your friends who have the ordinary weddings, I’m confident that your guests would have thoroughly enjoyed your special wedding.

You can also immediately have your honeymoon while your guests would be able to go for a short getaway on the cruise ship.

Hey! The night is still young after the wedding party and there are many options for a wild night get away before you retire to your room to rest.

I was browsing through the net and saw that now you can even book your cruise vacation online.

You know in wedding planning, one of the things you will plead for more is -not money, but time.

Booking online certainly help save you a day or two.

I am checking out the Princess Cruises, you can go for scuba certification, cooking demonstrations and Broadway-style shows.

Who say going for cruise wedding is bored?

Do you know the worst thing that can happen during your wedding?

It is definitely not that the groom will run away.

It is when your savings account run dry and you need to pay for something right now.

Do you face the same issue right now?

I remember I am always short of money during my wedding preparation, all the way from buying our engagement ring to paying for our wedding photographers.

And most probably, if you are planning your wedding right now, you are seeing the numbers in your saving account book decreasing by hundred of dollars as each week passes by.

You have already max out your own credit cards and you feel it is not right to borrow money from your in-laws.

So what can you do to get instant money by tomorrow?

Money has always been the primary issue of concern for wedding couples.

It is not a problem only if you have a mountain of cash prepared just for your wedding.

In most cases, the finance set aside for weddings is really tight.

9 out of 10 brides have always grumbled that their money is never enough.

They are always looking forward to their next payday and the next and the next.

They have never known how to get more cash into your purse and knew nothing about loans such as parents’ loans, online payday loans and loans from the bank.

Me too, during that time while I was preparing my wedding.

If you have never planned your own wedding before, you can’t really understand the frustration that we have gone through.

You have heard about sad wedding songs? And have you heard about sad bride stories?

Here is one I learnt when I was providing online email support for my readers.

There is this story of a bride I know and she was not a very happy bride.

When her boyfriend proposed to her, she was the happiest angel on earth.

She started to be really busy arranging appointments to meet wedding photographer, hotel and even planning her honeymoon.

She was looking forward to the most beautiful day of her life.

The funny thing was she was planning her wedding all by herself.

What was actually happening?

I had 2 incredible weddings in a roll for the past two days.

One of them was my neighbour’s and the other was my beloved cousin’s.

It was fun and very tiring in fact as I had to work in the morning till evening and had to rush home to get myself prepared for the wedding dinner on last Saturday. I only managed to catch a 45 minutes nap.

Somehow, I have yet to recover from the oversea travelling fatigue and I am still really tired, physically and emotionally.

I just feel drained.

However, I still dragged myself to attend both weddings as both were relaly significant for me.

Let me tell you more about the first wedding - my neighbour’s.

The bridal car with its envoy of the brother’s cars came at about 7am. The loud series of horn blasts woke the whole neighbourhood up. The horn was to signify the coming of the groom to fetch the bride and it somehow started the day with a “bang!”

The wedding games by the bridesmaids were simpler compared to mine. They just had a game of passing the rubber using straws and had to be done using the groomsmen’s mouths, guessing from a paper of full of kisses and signatures which of those belong to his wife.

Later, was the declaration of love by the groom and he had to read a signed contract done by the bride.

Some of the non-negotiable terms are:
