Whether it’s your birthday, your wedding, your anniversary or any other celebration, gathering your group together to celebrate at sea provides an ideal setting to ensure your entire group is taken care of. With so many inclusions like meals, entertainment, transportation, activities for adults and children and exciting destinations, it’s the perfect way to combine your celebration with a vacation.
Once we had decided that the topic for this month’s newsletter would be Celebrating at Sea, I began to think about our cruise consultants as they talk with clients about cruising plans and the stories and pictures that come back to us after our clients cruise. I had a revelation – cruising is always a celebration at sea. Let me break down my thought process for you.
Now all of the three major contemporary cruise lines, Carnival Cruise Lines, Norwegian Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean International, offer some form of an alcoholic drink package. These packages allow cruisers to enjoy an alcoholic beverage onboard without breaking the bank. It also allows cruisers to enjoy their vacation just a little more. Gone are the days of worrying that you are spending hundreds of dollars at the poolside bar or doing the mental math when you purchase wine with your delightful dinner.
The wonderful thing about river cruising is that you are immersed in the your destination, experiencing the history and culture of each town. At every stop the cruise director, who also serves as one of the tour guides, lead the group through cities like Cologne and Strasbourg visiting castles, magnificent churches and walking the streets of quaint towns like Mainz and Koblenz.
Aside from gathering with family and friends, sharing meals and exchanging gifts, the holidays are also a special time to give back. This year, we at The Cruise Web decided to raise funds and help out some local families that seek services from the College Park Youth & Family Services.

For decades, couples have decided to break with tradition and get married on a cruise or in a far away destination. Now, with Royal Caribbean, couples can actually get married while sailing in international waters. The Commonwealth of the Bahamas recently passed a Marriage Act that will allow marriages that occur in international waters to be recognized by the Bahamas.
One thing I keep coming back to about the Celebrity Reflection was how innovative it is. I just returned from a 3-day trip on this new ship and I know this is a ship that I will recommend to clients and cruisers. Celebrity is known for a very modern look with clean lines.
