 He slips the
ring on your finger. You whisper, "I do". A light breeze fills the canvas as he
takes you in his arms. The Captain gives the order to kiss the bride. This isn't
an excerpt from a romance novel. This is your wedding. Your every fantasy come
true...
Whisper "I do" from the deck of a tall ship
Weddings - Tie The Knot
 Tie the knot simply
means to be bound by love. And now that you have found your perfect mate, it's
time to begin planning the perfect wedding. Our barefoot bride and grooms have
celebrated their unions with informal celebrations on the top deck or formal
affairs on the beach.
You may decide on a legally binding ceremony performed by a
non-denominational minister. Or, choose to take care of the legal paper work
back home and simply have a wedding ceremony officiated by your ship's Captain.
No matter your preference, leave all your worries to us. We offer wedding
packages to suit your budget and the complimentary service of a Wedding
Consultant who is here to help plan your perfect day.
Vow Renewals
 Say, "I
do" all over again. Your years together have been unforgettable. We invite you
to celebrate your life and commitment to each other with a vow renewal ceremony.
Officiated by your ship's Captain, you will cherish every memory as you look
back through your lifetime together. A renewal is also about new beginnings...
you have the future to look forward to-and many more years of sharing your lives
together.
Honeymoon Cruises
 A
Caribbean cruise is the perfect dream honeymoon... romantic, exciting and as
active or relaxing as you want it to be. Choose from our spacious,
air-conditioned honeymoon suites and nine exotic itineraries Windjammer's
honeymoon package includes a complimentary bottle of champagne, honeymoon gift
basket and two "barefoot honeymoon" t-shirts. The icing on the cake is the 50%
off discount Windjammer offers newlyweds on their first year anniversary cruise.
Elopements
We love them! And while we can't offer you a tacky little drive through
wedding chapel, we can guarantee sunny days, swaying palms and moon filled
nights. Oh... and the occasional Elvis sighting too.
Something Borrowed, Something Blue
How small or large of a wedding party can I have?
No hard and fast rules. From just the two of you, to your closest friends and
extended family, Windjammer can manage all of the travel arrangements for any
size group-at sizeable discounts too! Your Windjammer Wedding Consultant works
closely with Windjammer's group and charter department to ensure that all of
your travel needs and those of your friends and family are met. Flights,
transfers, and hotel and cruise accommodations-we make every aspect of planning
your wedding as easy as saying "I do."
What should I wear?
Wear whatever makes you feel comfortable. Windjammer brides dress
in everything from white gowns to bikinis and sarongs. Some grooms have worn
tuxedos with tails, others Hawaiian shirts and khaki shorts. Bare feet are
the preferred foot attire!
How do we obtain a marriage license?
Once you have firmed up your plans with Windjammer's Wedding
Consultant, she will put you in touch with the local island wedding coordinator.
This capable individual will advise you on all of the legal requirements
necessary to request a marriage license. She also handles all of your wedding
details, from flowers to photographers; she's your "go to" gal down island.
When can my wedding take place?
You may get married Saturday or Sunday before the cruise, or on
Monday morning prior to the ships departure. Ceremonies officiated by Windjammer
Captains can take place on Monday or Tuesday during your cruise.
