By: Charlotte Horsfall The study, conducted by http://www.CruiseCompare.co.uk, initially asked the respondents the multiple choice question ‘What is your idea of a perfect wedding?’ More than half, 53%, stated a ‘white wedding’ was their idea of perfection when it came to their big day, whilst a further fifth, 19%, admitted that their ideal wedding would be held on a ‘cruise ship.' Furthermore, 23% of the respondents cited that their ‘perfect wedding’ would take place on an ‘exotic beach.' Only 2% of the engaged couples asked stated that getting married in a ‘registry office’ would be their idea of a ‘perfect wedding.' The respondents to the study by http://www.CruiseCompare.co.uk were asked to explain their reasons for choosing their ‘perfect wedding.' Of the 19% who stated that getting married on a cruise ship was their idea of a ‘perfect wedding’ the majority, 47%, said it was because of the ‘luxurious surroundings’ A further tenth, 11%, of the respondents who admitted that getting wed on a cruise liner was their ‘perfect wedding’ stated that the ‘experience’ When asked by http://www.CruiseCompare.co.uk ‘Do you think you will actually have your dream wedding?’ less than a tenth, 7%, of those who dreamt of getting wed on a cruise ship answered ‘yes,' whilst a further 16% admitted to being ‘hopeful’ of achieving their ‘perfect wedding’ on a cruise ship. Danielle Fear, Managing Director of http://www.CruiseCompare.co.uk, had the following to say, “A wedding day is one of the most important days in a person’s life and most of us have dreamt about it for years and hold the perfect day in our minds. After previous research that revealed many engaged couples want to honeymoon on a cruise ship, I wasn’t surprised that a fifth dream of getting married onboard; it would certainly be luxurious and very different!” She continued, “I am sure that more than 7% can achieve their dream wedding on a cruise ship, as it's certainly doable and fairly affordable. After the ceremony, newlyweds can simply relax and make the most of the experience. What is a better way to start married life than sailing into the sunset?” Previous research, conducted by CruiseCompare.co.uk, revealed that 34% of young engaged couple’s ideal honeymoon would be on a cruise liner. ***ENDS*** For more information, please contact Charlotte Horsfall, 10 Yetis PR Agency on 01452 348 211 or Charlotte@10yetis.co.uk EDITORS NOTES • CruiseCompare.co.uk is the UK's largest cruise comparison website, comparing more than 10,000 cruise holidays on more than 200 cruise liners. • CruiseCompare.co.uk has partnered with leading agents so offer cruises from the leading brands including P&O Cruises, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Celebrity Cruises, Princess Cruises, Costa Cruises and Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL).
