Creator's Key Takeaways
This cruise was not only put together by me to celebrate a milestone birthday, but also to celebrate over 40 years of friendship with six of my closest friends from elementary, junior high, and high school.
The imbarcation at Royal Caribbean Galveastston Cruise Terminal was so smooth that part of our group were already headed to the ship when some of us stopped to take these pics.
I don't remember waiting in any lines. Everyone had their boarding passes printed, passports, and proper ID.
I picked Royal Caribbean Mariner of the Seas because I had cruised her sister ship, the Voyager, in 2023.

Embarkation day for my birthday cruise on Royal Caribbean’s Mariner of the Seas was a breeze! 🚢✨ We sailed out of Galveston, Texas, and thanks to everyone having the cruise line app downloaded, passports and ID ready, and luggage tags secured, we barely had to wait in any lines. It made for one of the smoothest check-ins I’ve ever experienced! This was also my first semi-large group cruise, and I learned a lot about making Friends & Family group cruising an amazing experience. Many in my group were first-time cruisers, and I’m happy to say that 99% had a fantastic time! 🎊 I’ll be sharing tips and tricks in upcoming videos on how to organize a successful group cruise, avoid common mistakes, and make sure everyone has a great time. Since there’s not much info out there on how to plan and manage the group cruise experience, I want to help you set your group up for success! 👉 Have you ever cruised with a group?
