I also am single so do not want a family, romantic couple kind of place. A cruise? Europe too expensive. Mexico, Alaska, U.s.? I live in CA. Thanks!


Answer
How about small ship cruise? They are more expensive than the giant resort ships but there are always singles and everyone mixes well because they are of similar mind set! You also don't get drunks, morons and screaming out of control kids!

Dragged on to our very first cruise (Princess, Vancouver to Anchorage) by my wife kicking and screaming I would hate it. Loved it!

Tried the big lines for several cruises. HOWEVER we didn't like the crowds and missing the "real world" you pass by on the way to the next money making tourist stop, complete with 2+ other cruise ships also docked!

Have been all over the world visiting remote/fantastic sites (impossible for big ships to get at) in small ships since.

Went on 100 person ship Anchorage to Vancouver 2011.
Never saw a big ship!
Never stopped at a tourist trap town!
No dancing girls or casino.
No crowds or queues!
Visited back of beyond small towns - bet you have never been to a hammer museum - we have now!
We spent most of the time out in the Zodiacs seeing the best show on earth - NATURE!
In front of a glacier having a 10,000 ton calving (mini tsunami moved us all around).
Standing in a salmon spawning stream with the fish swimming through our feet.
Being one side of a river watching bears catching salmon on the other side!
Spending 2 hours drifting with a pod of about 20 humpback whales bubble feeding - something you never expect to see other than on TV.
Sea otters, Sea lions, humpback breaching about 50ft from us!
Barbecued on a spit of land surrounded by nature/mini icebergs/Eagles!
Drifting with a pod of Orca whales as we approached northern Victoria Island.
Total sensory overload all the time etc. etc.
You don't compromise comfort or good food!
The choice is yours! We never go on big ships now!

Yes they are more expensive - but worth it!

Our next trip (this year it is in an 80 person ship) will be staying within the Glacier Park area and we will not visit any towns but we will be trekking / exploring / whale watching / kayaking / glacier watching. Hope not to see another ship!
This is the company we are going with.
Not as luxury as some of the other small ships, but we also choose by outstanding itinerary!
Best time for whale watching is last 2 weeks of July.

what is your opinion on wedding videography?

A must-have?
An expensive luxury?

Also, do you know how much something like that can cost?
Memories are more important than money, but honestly I have NO idea what that kind of thing runs!

Did you have or do you plan to have a videographer?



Answer
My opinion is that it's an expensive extra (not really a luxury). A couple most likely watches their wedding video a handful of times early in their marriage. Except for close family and friends, I can't imagine that anyone would be interested in watching it. Wedding albums with beautiful stills are more impressive. I would rather beef up the photography package and forego the video.

Millions of couples were married before video cameras were invented. They have beautiful photographs and don't feel like they are missing anything.
