Tranquil beachside locations and lush tropical wedding bookings gardens are what clients often dream of when planning a wedding abroad, but a cruise can provide a perfect venue, with all of their wedding party and guests in one place plus a stunning ocean backdrop.

Its something Galway-based Fahy Travel has cottoned on to. Manager Caroline OToole and consultant Fiona Flaherty have invested time and energy into growing the agencys cruise business and have booked a wedding with MSC Cruises every year for the past four years.

“You can get a basic cruise wedding package for about €3,000, whereas a land-based wedding will typically set you back somewhere between €20,000 to €30,000.”
