Review summary

Our Honeymoon was amazing, thanks to the NCL staff.  We received a 'treat' daily to our stateroom; priority exiting at tender ports; priority exiting on return to Miami; and invitation to the Capt's reception.  And, at Cagney's we received a free bottle of champagne.

 

The wedding planner associated with NCL barely did their job prior to us getting on board.  12 days before departure she asked '...we have 14 guests attending your wedding..."  No, we had 41 and this info was provided 45 days in advance.  On day of wedding, in port, one couple was not on the list and had it not been for the Staff Captain on duty, they wouldn't have been granted access (after flying down fro Chicago).

 

The wedding was perfect once it got started and everyone had a great time.  We had 22 guests sail with us and we were even selected to play the "Not So Newlywed" game.  :)

 

Back to wedding, one minor complaint is that the photographs are expensive, and the photographer is one of the on board staff and NOT a wedding photographer.

 

Loved our cruise!!!

I liked the cabin except for the poor design of the closet door right next to the bed
