I had the worst wedding in the world.  Full Stop. No Questions Asked.
 
My (now) husband and I made the horrible error in entrusting our special day to the less than capable hands of a cruise ship.  Because we lived so far away from each other, we believed this would be a great option. 
 
We were promised greatness and got crap.  Seriously.
 
From day 1, we requested 'no bars', we didn't want a bar for the ceremony cite, a bar for the photos, no bars.... we're religious people, we wanted a special day.  So, what does the cruise line do?
 
They put us in a 'bar' cleverly described as 'lounge' - but not just any bar - our bar shared a common wall with the "Goth Party" next door.  As a result, during our 'special' ceremony, we had goths walking into our room, and we could hear them cheering during our vows and prayers.  This was after the cruise promised us that we 'wouldn't hear a thing'!
 
The people who were suppose to 'help' us that day were 45 minutes late in picking me up, as a result of their horrid tardiness our guests were kicked off the boat before the meal was completed.  There was no toast to the bride, there was no 'welcomes' to the families.  It was 'they have to leave, now, you're done'.
 
Our professional photos, (the professional photographer had to be provided by the cruise ship) were taken - in bars!  Attached is one of the 'best' worst romantic pictures I have ever seen.  The large hands and tattoos take away from my dress...
 
In dealing with the company in the time that followed we've been given nothing but the run around... no explanations just 'oh we're sorry'... as if a 'sorry' can make the wedding day any better.
 
Moral of my pathetic tale... stay on land and trust no one with wedding details.
