Everyone had a fun time. We served foods with an international flair, and served a festive fruit punch. Everyone got into the mood with the leis and the umbrella straws. I hope our guests will book furture cruises with RCCL, as a matter of fact a couple of guests just left for a RCCL cruise last Friday. Thanks houseparty for picking me to host this RCCL event.

We had a really fun time. It turned in to a great big luau party that I think everyone enjoyed. The children swam, the adults ate and had cocktails then we had friends put on a luau dance for the guests. I hope many of our guests plan to book great cruises with the information provided. The cruises we have been on and others also proved to be the large amount of the conversation for the day.

We had a great time getting together. My friends were all looking for some great cruise deals.... Moving forward we may look at booking a group trip in the future.

We had a great party! Lots of good friends, food and drinks. We used the decorations that came in the party pack plus some that we had from past vacations and parties. We all love cruising and are now looking in planning a group cruise!

Our cruise party was the best. Good weather, great friends, lots of good food and plenty to drink. Some of us have been on Royal Caribbean so we had lots to compare. We were all wishing we were on the real cruise ship and not a make believe one. This was one of the best times, we all needed a lift. Looking forward to another cruise ( the real one) real soon, only it has to be longer than 5 days!!!!!!

Our party was a big success. Everyone had a great time. Weather turned out beautiful. We had lots of food and games and everyone enjoyed themselves.
Just like on a real cruise I gained weight after it was all over. Thanks House Party.

We loved it...it was the best houseparty ever. My family and I all 19 of us are ready to take a cruise next year. The DVD and brochures were very informative and we loved the details on the ships.

We had to postpone the main party 2 weeks, just did not have enough repairs done from the flood to have room for a lot of people, but I did do a small party with some family. We got the pool done just in time and the rain held off, loved the wings recipe from the favors page. And talked my mom into possibly taking a cruise with me in January!

Whew!!! We had an amazing day. We had a nice intimate party with 15 people. A friend of ours was the "DJ" and we had a blast. It was a day on the Lido deck. We swam and the stuffed ourselves - like you would on a crusie. We have tons of pictures. The dollar store supplied all my needs so the items from the boxes were used just as decorations (leis and straws). The other "items" were given away as prizes for our games. It was an adults only party so we had some great games. A friend volunteered to watch the kids so inside the house was the "kids clubs". Despite this whole fiasco - it turned out to be a GREAT end of the summer party. We are planning to book the Oasis for a Christmas trip. Now I have to figure how to upload these pics.

We had a great time despite the Cruise Planners fiasco. 24 guests showed up. We ate and partied for 7 hours till the rain poured on us. Everyone enjoyed the 'boarding pictures' that I took. I used my own decorations (see my party photos if you can find them on the site) and even set up a seperate display of the Cruise Planners/RCL info. Several people asked about cruising and are planning to book.

I had a great time and so did my guests. The decorations were perfect and the food was awesome! We had a great ocean backdrop for pictures and a tiki bar. Every thing was perfect!

I'm not real sure how this party is going to go. There weren't many supplies in the boxes that were sent and I hadn't planned on spending a lot extra money since we also just had a birthday party. I haven't had anyone reply yes!! It may just be me and my family!

Does anyone want to help me clean! I think we had one too many frozen cocktails. Had a blast hopefully trying to get an all girl getaway next year. The Oasis out does any other ship by far! Funny thing is I go on vacation to getaway from NY and on the Oasis I will be in NY. My guest and I shared all our Cruise pictures and talked about many ships. I think we are all now convinced RC is the best out there. In six days I will be on Liberty of the Seas can't wait

we had a great time at our party last night. Apparently a lot of my friends thought there would be a cruise planner here.???

We are wanting to book a cruise for next month and it just so happens that there is this houseparty going on with Cruise Planners and they are out of the country in Mexico at a Conference. R u kidding me? I feel like I'm being strung along for the last 4 days.

Is anyone else booking a cruise in this booking window?

Had a great time. Watched a video about the Freedom of the Seas. Talked about the Oasis and ate and drank until we were stuffed. I put together a Cruise Compass detailing every part of the party. 8pm to 8:10pm napkin folding, 8:10-8:20pm black jack demo, 8:20-9pm video and on and on. It was fun rushing trying to do it all in such a short amount of time.

Beautiful day, we lounged by the pool, listened to music, had a drink mix game girls vs boys, grilled, the fishing net filled with leis, shells, fish and pirate swords fit in perfect. Scavenger hunt, and a lot of memories of past cruises. It was a great day and thanks to all who were in attendance. Look forward to another party soon.

We had a wonderful time. We played Cruisitude Bingo and Name that drink. Everyone laughed, learned, had fun, and decided we would take a group cruise in March. Yay! We are excited and ready to pack our bags. Big shot out to Arnie (agent) for stepping in and making the party a BIG success. You're the best Arnie

just finished our party- 11:00PM. Had a great time. Everyone liked my idea about visiting different countries via food from that country like we were on a cruise. Thanks

Our party is over! We made the best of it and partied big. I used my own supplies because we had way more guests than the supplies we were given.

We had a cruisitude and people took home the brochures and watched the dvd. But we mostly played games and relaxed and ate...just like on a cruise, minus the boat.

my cruise planner lady said she would send me a bouquet the day before the party which was yesterday and I still haven't received anything... That's not cool....
