Ready Made weddings!

So much goes into planning a wedding. Flowers, the cake, the dress, the waiter staff, the venue etc as the list goes on. Its enough to drive anyone insane. So Today I want to make it easier. Why? Because not everyone is a DIY genius. Because your wedding should be the happiest day of your life. Because thats what I'm writing about...darn it!
so here we go!
1. Destination: NO HEADACHE!
As you know destination weddings are the biggest craze. Beautiful beaches, soothing water and everything already done is what to expect when you say "oui" to a destination wedding. The quest is not to go into debt and although most cruises are "affordable" it takes the internet savvy to find the best deals. My advice: BOOK EARLY! Its important, two ladies can be on the same boat and one could've spent thousands while the other booked early and spend a few hundreds. Same boat , two different ladies...it makes a difference. trust me.
Here are some good deals for the anti DIYers:
The Ships:
Carnival Fun Ships.
Have your wedding shipboard or pick a destination, either way is good with Carnival. With Packages starting $1,195 depending on the ship and ports, it meets the Under $2000 wedding requirement. Packages include pretty much everything: "ceremony preformed by a non denominational officiant, bridal bouquet with matching boutonniere for the groom, wedding cake with keepsake topper" and more! Call the "Fun Ship" Wedding Department at 1-800-933-4968 or email: weddings@carnival.com! Score!
Another cruise option is Royal Caribbean Cruises.
Wanna try rock climbing on a Rock Climbing Wall or ice skating in the ice skating rink? How about getting married like a celebrity on an Alaskan glacier? With Royal Caribbean Cruise you can get do it at an affordable price. Most packages start at $1395.oo which again gets the seal of Under $2000 wedding approval.
There are tons more but you gotta look.
