The Bregmans planned a storybook wedding for their daughter on a Mexican Riviera cruise with a stop at Puerto Vallarta for the ceremony. Mother Nature had other plans as a hurricane rerouted the ship. That’s when crew member Mitchell Finke sprung to action, working with every department to ensure the couple would have their special day aboard the ship.
The crew designed and set up an aisle, backdrop, floral arrangements and seating for guests. The photo department captured the event. And the foghorn sounded when the bride and groom kissed.
After the ceremony, there was an exquisite dinner reception at Tamarind. After dinner, the group headed to B.B. King’s Blues Club. Upon entering, the lead singer saw the bride and said, “Stop right there, Cinderella…” and the band began playing in celebration. While it wasn’t the wedding they planned, it certainly became the wedding of their dreams.
Thank you to the officers and crew of Eurodam exceeding guest expectations. We wish Mr. and Mrs. Guerry the very best!
Not surprised that HAL made this happen. First class ships and crew all the way. Beautiful!
I love this story! May this couple always adapt to Plan B or Plan C as their life rolls out. They were able to celebrate with both families participating. Holland America cruise lines is my favorite. ❤️
Sounds just like HAL – LOVEly in every way. May God bless you all as well as this couple’s marriage!!
Good on you HAL! First rate as usual. Congrats to the happy couple on their beautiful day!
My husband and I loved our Holland America cruise a few years ago . The staff is exemplary and I can only imagine they wholeheartedly made this the most beautiful joining of two hearts and lives. Holland America is amazing !!
Leave it to Holland America, to pull out all the stops to make this a memorable day for this couple. You are always willing to go above and beyond for your guests….I have seen it time and time again!
Lovely.
Well done, Holland America! No surprise that your care of your passengers was “above and beyond” expectations for this couple and their families. Service and smiles are a daily part of sailing with you!
I was on that cruise (Eurodam) with my granddaughter! Very impressed with the staff and Captain for arranging a beautiful wedding for that young couple! Our Dining Room staff also went out of their way to ensure that my granddaughter and I continued to enjoy our cruise!
Felicitaties!! Great pictures.
