Just a quick break from our South America vlogs to share this insanely awesome few nights we just had pre-xmas cruising! Much love, and MERRY CHRISTMAS from us🥰
Hi & thanks for sharing a great review. Can you please let me know about the dress code as I am looking at a14night cruise ex Sydney? Hubby is not an aussie fancy dresser (jeans, polo shirt or shirt sleeved collared shirt is ok) & I am worried he may feel out of place for night time dining?
Sorry for the delay - we were off getting married ❤ The main dining halls are a bit more strict, but the buffet is always available and anything goes there really. But he will need some kind of dress pants or at least tidy jeans and a collar shirt to be safe!
Thank you for sharing this vid,my wife and I are going on the Celebrity Edge Feb 2025 on a 2 week cruise to the Bay of Islands,Fiji,Samoa and American Samoa for our 30th wedding anniversary,we have an ocean view cabin but after watching this we have decided to upgrade to the infinite veranda cabin,thank you again for showing the ship and the cabin
I promise you won't regret the upgrade - there's such a beautiful serenity from having that sea breeze in the room from the veranda! You're going to have an amazing time!
Hi, we'll see you and your wife onboard hopefully as we're boarding at Auckland in Feb 2025 on the same cruise. We have an inside cabin. Who knows we might bump into you both. Stacy & Jackina from Napier
Love the Edge. We were on it with Capt Kate in Aug 2019 and are going on it again in mid-Feb and we even booked the exact same cabin as last time, reason why ? - it's only about 45 seconds away from the best Bar on the ship, The Martini Bar. Had quite a few terrific nights there. Looking forward to it so much !!!!!
You'll be pleased to know he's just as nice in person! Stace has watched the show, I haven't, but he was just a nice guy and we hung out quite a few nights (and drinks 😂)
Thankyou for your video abt the Edge It’s absolutely a beautiful couple in beautiful ship , cruising the beautiful country. We did land travelling in NZ 2 times but this cruise made me think want to go back.
Lovely ship i can fully understand the overwhelming feeling , its huge 😮 . 😂in 3 days you probably eat a lot with all the choices on board . I hope that my hubby and i can do a cruise at some point to Norway Iceland . Thank you for taking us a long lot of fun.
Norway or Iceland would be SO epic! The food on this cruise was really great, we got to try only half of the different places over our time - easily could have done a full week
Hi guys! I love New Zealand & i love cruising! I’ve been in NZ back in 2010 for 3 weeks and i had so much fun in your country! Celebrity Cruises is my favourite cruise line, my next one is booked in April 2024 cruising around Japan with Celebrity Millennium. Ciao from Italy!
If I were planning on doing a cruise for 10 or so nights how much should I expect to bring for activities and what not (excluding the cruise fees and drinks and food on the boat)? Lmk thanks :)
That mostly depends on if you have the all inclusive package or not, that makes things much more relaxed and easy while onboard because premium drinks/alcohol is paid. The great thing with a cruise is you don't really need to spend any money if you don't want to - don't pay for the excursions, just walk and explore the cities for free, don't get alcohol, eat at the buffet and included restaurants etc. Just depends how you'd like to travel!
Edge would be the perfect first ship! It's not as large as others so that means a lot less 'things' and a lot less overwhelming. Despite that, it never felt packed and overcrowded like others we've been on and heard about - we highly recommend! Easily our fav.
I don't think so sorry, at least not at the moment. This ship will be based around NZ and Aus next year though so check their website, there might be some goodies!
Aww l ove this makes want to do this for my birthday in August. Whats the Weather like in in NZ then? Where you guys in the Isles in Scotland a few years back you made me visit them even though I live here had never been. Anyway thank you got the video and congratulations on your marriage, wishing you both a long happy union. P.S is a veranda the same as a balcony? 💕
You got a good reply below, but from what we were told the crossing was easy as. Edge has a unique hull design so it's more efficient and has great stability even when it's listing
So do we, it was amazing! Haha you'll be pleased to know he's just as nice in person! Stace has watched the show, I haven't, but he was just a nice guy and we hung out quite a few nights (and drinks 😂)
What do you think about 18 days Tahitian Treasures cruise from Sydney to Honolulu? My wife thinks it's too long a cruise from our 7 - Day Carribean cruise last year. What's there to do inside the ship for 18 days? Any input/advice from anybody here would be much appreciated. Thanks!!
What a cool ship & great trip! The penguin encounter was amazing! ❤ We are doing Alaska via Holland America for our 20th Anniversary next May after taking a train across the US. We've already had to book excursions and some are sold out. Hopefully someone will set up a FB group soon just for our sailing. That seems the way to go for most questions - FB groups. 🎉 I'm pretty sure it's illegal to diet on a cruise. 😉 Impending wedding or not, just sayin'. Thanks for sharing. -western NY Troy & Aimee
SO jealous of your Alaska cruise! Some friends did one recently and their photos were jaw dropping - we gotta get there some time. HAHA yeah we broke every rule in the book by not embracing the food as much as we should
Celebrity is a nice cruise line, I wouldn’t call it a luxury cruise, there are higher end and there are smaller ships that IMO . Smaller ships from HAL is what we prefer, we have done about twenty five Celebrity cruises of the forty five we have done.
That's a lot of cruises! You're right there definitely are some smaller more luxurious options, but hopefully you agree that of the larger style ships Celebrity is definitely up there in terms of quality?
I have been on celebrity before but it definitely is trying to position itself as a luxury brand now days, have you priced some of the suites or even normal cabins lately? It’s insane, especially their ship within a ship suites, crazy prices

Haha yeah we know the martini bar well 🤣 some great drinks there with a bit of a show and flair as well! Enjoy your next trip, but we know you will!
Love the NZ vlogs, home sweet home
Us too! We'll be aiming for lots more this year
What the hell, you're rubbing shoulders with THE capitan Jason?! 😮 This episode makes me want to go on a cruise now 😂 good episode guys
You'll be pleased to know he's just as nice in person! Stace has watched the show, I haven't, but he was just a nice guy and we hung out quite a few nights (and drinks 😂)
Thankyou for your video abt the Edge
It’s absolutely a beautiful couple in beautiful ship , cruising the beautiful country.
We did land travelling in NZ 2 times but this cruise made me think want to go back.
You're so welcome! It genuinely was such an amazing cruise, you will love it
Thank you for capturing and sharing your guys cruise! Really helps!! Definitely looking into the suites and comparison ❤
Our pleasure! Which ever cabin you pick you're going to love it!
Thank you so much! We are going on this ship in 8 weeks for 10 days. I really enjoy your vlogs ❤
We can say this with 100% confidence - you're going to LOVE it!
Gosh guys that boat looked awesome loved your room, thank you as always for taking g us along. Merry Christmas to you both 💕🎄
Same to you! Glad you enjoyed
We did Alaska this summer with Celebrity and it was AMAZING! Highly recommend
Oooohhh that's good to know! Though, to be fair after this cruise it's absolutely no surprise it would be magical - this one was amazing as well
I love cruising and celebrity are my favourite company…. So glad you enjoyed it
Us too! Glad you've been enjoying Celebrity as well, perfect balance of modern, good size and great staff.
did you do all of NZ or just part?
Just what we showed, it was a fe nights only
Looked like a pretty sweet ship & cruise!
It was! Now we know why some people just live on them haha
We’ll be taking our first Celebrity cruise on Apex in December. Caribbean out of Ft Lauderdale. We’re even more excited now. Thank you for the tour!
You're going to love it!
Was the sea rough at all? Will be on a March sailing
Nope, not at all! This ship is unbelievably stable! The team that did the crossing from Sydney also said it was really comfortable as well
Do you know if the solarium
Has family time hours?
Planning a cruise for my Mum 80th leaving Auckland for Fiji. And yay Captain Jason.
Do it! She'll love it 🥰 Jason is awesome by the way, great guy!
WOW what a journey you have been on, and nearly stayed with us. Have a great Christmas 🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
It was so epic! Cruising is just so stress free!
How did you swing that bridge tour?
We were with a group of media fortunately 👌🏼
Lovely ship i can fully understand the overwhelming feeling , its huge 😮 .
😂in 3 days you probably eat a lot with all the choices on board .
I hope that my hubby and i can do a cruise at some point to Norway Iceland .
Thank you for taking us a long lot of fun.
Norway or Iceland would be SO epic! The food on this cruise was really great, we got to try only half of the different places over our time - easily could have done a full week

So cool! We reaaaallly want to do Japan as well, cruising will be an amazing way to do it - have fun!
Saw you guys on the ship❤

I did love it you guys are amazing creators but when I saw you guys I was too nervous to talk I have adhd and autism
Glad you loved it too! We’ll next time don’t be shy, we stop and chat with anyone and everyone and would happily of said hi ☺️
@@DanegerAndStacey aww thanks for being understanding I love you guys

does the cruise supply wifi?
It’s paid from memory
It's fantastic cruise 🎉🎉best wishes from Levin north...🎉🎉🎉
Thanks! Happy holidays!
next try the Resilient Lady - as it's doing it's 1st season of AU NZ cruises * we're heading to those 3 NZ stops on ours in March
I have never been on cruise ship or cruised. Would Celebrity Edge be ideal for first-timers or would it be overwhelming?
Edge would be the perfect first ship! It's not as large as others so that means a lot less 'things' and a lot less overwhelming. Despite that, it never felt packed and overcrowded like others we've been on and heard about - we highly recommend! Easily our fav.
are they doing Auckland return cruises???......love my cruise
I don't think so sorry, at least not at the moment. This ship will be based around NZ and Aus next year though so check their website, there might be some goodies!

Hi,What deck is your room? Thanks x
How rough is the cruise from Sydney to Bay of Islands? We are cruising Nov 2024, on the 7th level midship
I went on tye recent Christmas cruise
Not rough at all. And the ship so large and stabilisers possibly not an issue when it is rough seas
You got a good reply below, but from what we were told the crossing was easy as. Edge has a unique hull design so it's more efficient and has great stability even when it's listing
This places so beautiful
It was! So modern and amazing! Happy new year!
Wow love this ship! ❤ ps you guys are friends with Captain Jason?? Jealous he is the man❤❤
So do we, it was amazing! Haha you'll be pleased to know he's just as nice in person! Stace has watched the show, I haven't, but he was just a nice guy and we hung out quite a few nights (and drinks 😂)
Currently on board. Would have been cool to have run itno you. Such a stunning ship isn't it?
Oh we were running around for a few days, but it's a big ship I guess. Hope you're enjoying - great ship huh?!
What do you think about 18 days Tahitian Treasures cruise from Sydney to Honolulu? My wife thinks it's too long a cruise from our 7 - Day Carribean cruise last year. What's there to do inside the ship for 18 days? Any input/advice from anybody here would be much appreciated. Thanks!!
Sounds like a pretty amazing trip to us! How many days at sea is that?
@@DanegerAndStacey9 at sea
It looks so pretty I wish I went there
Lifes short! Book that cruise!
What a cool ship & great trip! The penguin encounter was amazing! ❤

I'm pretty sure it's illegal to diet on a cruise. 😉 Impending wedding or not, just sayin'.

I was on the ship with you guys!
Hope you enjoyed too?
You didn't show buffet clearly. Can you tell me which types of food were available especially the Indian foods.
We couldn't tell you in detail sorry - but for each cuisine there was 5-15 different plates or options, it's pretty extensive
Do you get sea sick?
Not in the slightest - the ship is uniquely designed around the hull, it's crazy efficient and smooth even in big swells
Im going in 2025 Feb,wasnt too keen but now I am after seeing your review
That’s amazing to hear, you’ll have a great time, it’s not some cheesy cruise ship
Celebrity is a nice cruise line, I wouldn’t call it a luxury cruise, there are higher end and there are smaller ships that IMO . Smaller ships from HAL is what we prefer, we have done about twenty five Celebrity cruises of the forty five we have done.

How dare you talk about the wedding diet at the buffet 😂
Illegal move!
Hey!
Heeeeey
How are you Stacey
