| Events and Parties
We know how to keep you entertained, and have been doing it strong for 20 years. Here are some of the events and parties we're planning for you. Join your fellow RSVP Cruisers as we sail away from Ft. Lauderdale. Wear a T-Shirt from your hometown – meet your neighbors and lots of new friends. RSVP President Charlie Rounds will be on hand to welcome you aboard and introduce the RSVP Team. Well, this should be FUN! Our hats are off to the athletes who are competing in the Canadian cold as we sail the warm waters of the Caribbean. Dress as your favorite athlete or team for this afternoon event. Are you a gymnast, pole vaulter, high diver, skater, skier - what is your sport? Winter or Summer Games, whatever you prefer. Cop, sailor, delivery man, leather daddy - what ever suits your mood. Dress up (or down) as much as you like - it should be a HOT night for this late night party with music by one of our featured DJ’s. Everyone will be in disguise at this festive, afternoon t-dance. What’s in your closet? Bring a mask from home or swing by the local party store and pick up something fun that you could “customize!” And if you are concerned about the added Baggage Fee, make one from items purchased in port, get creative. Whatever your choice, all you need for this RSVP event is a mask and your T-dance ensemble - we will provide the music from one of our world class DJ’s. More fun and games... “Let the games begin!” Get your traveling buddies together to form a “Team” to compete in the RSVP “Olympic-style” Pool Games. Your team should include five members, plus a designated Cheer Leader. Have your team cheer ready to win over the crowd and influence the judges. Themed uniforms are encouraged; the judges will select the competitors and the RSVP Cruise Director will preside over the competition. Join in the fun - your team could walk away with the GOLD. In honor of Valentines Day, our first session will be Cupid’s “Red & White” Bingo. Dress in red or white, or both. Or you could dress up as Cupid - just watch where you shoot that arrow... Don’t be surprised if you see a few special Cupids flying around this event. Solo travelers are encouraged to meet at the same time / same bar each night before dinner (see the daily schedule delivered to your stateroom each day for the location and time). Enjoy some casual chat over a nice beverage and then off to the Dining Room for dinner - unless you have other plans...? All passengers sailing “solo” are welcome to this first night mixer – meet your fellow single cruisers and make plans for tonight or the entire week. *see “Name Tags”. This gathering is a perfect chance for the women onboard to meet the other women onboard. It’s simple - just grab a name tag and mingle. Welcome Aboard! *See “Name Tags”. *“Name Tags” - so, you know who you are, your friends know who you are - but that hot guy or gal over at the bar - they have no idea who you are. So, don’t be shy - walk over and introduce yourself. Sure, it may be your first RSVP cruise, but it might be theirs also - and you wouldn’t want a little shyness to stand in the way of a hot cruise romance? Or even more... We encourage you to be creative and make yourself a name tag to wear at the Single’s Party. No Holds Barred! Just remember, the room has a 10’ ceiling and 36” wide doors... Outside of that - anything goes. Something simple is OK, but why not let your “inner” self come out - you know you can do it. Show us. Not to worry, RSVP will have blank name tags available. Newbie? Is this your first RSVP cruise? No problem - just join the other virgins at this fun and informative gathering. Our Cruise Director will give you the secret tips you need to know to make your RSVP Cruise the best ever. It’s easy, it’s fun and it’s FREE! Over the years we have encouraged passengers to decorate their stateroom doors to let other passengers know something fun about themselves. Team RSVP is adding a “Door Decoration Contest” this year. Channel your “Martha Stewart” craftiness and be creative. ***Almost anything goes - keeping in mind three simple rules: Safety – Decorations should not obstruct doorways, hallways, nor create electrical or fire hazards. Taste – RSVP guests and ship’s crew come from a variety of cultural backgrounds. Please refrain from using offensive images or nudity on door decorations. Cleanliness – Respect ship property. Do not damage door surfaces. It is your responsibility to clean up your decorations at the end of your cruise. Did you pack your shit kickers? The floor is clear and the music is ready as our instructors put you through the paces of the 2-step, line dancing, waltz, and everything else country. Grab a partner or meet someone there - either way you won’t want to miss the fun. Seriously? What are we thinking? Gay people singing at the top of their voices - how fun is that? Free popcorn. Sinners Beware - you’re likely to spend (more) time on your knees repenting your sins (past and present). If you have transgressed, you must attend. Pious parishioners of every creed welcome. In conjunction with the very special Bingo, passengers are encouraged to dress up in “Southern Babatist Church Lady” attire. A special “parade” of ladies will occur and a prize will be awarded for the best church lady attire. What is it about our passengers? They just love getting dressed up - for almost every occasion. So, the RSVP Team has come up with yet another “fun” excuse to glue on false eyelashes and don a fabulous wig. The “Queen (and King) of Half Moon Cay” competition will certainly be visually entertaining, as well as a fun time at the Sea View Pool. Our Judges will survey the entrants and choose the Royal couple who will reign over Half Moon Cay. Contestants should be a pair (2 people), one vying for Queen and one for King (do we need to explain this?). Each couple will be introduced, allowed to strut their stuff and the finalists will be asked a specially designed question. The BIG prize will be announced on the ship - but it is worthy of Royalty. So, pack your Tiara and Royal garb and sign up for this new event. Late? No way... this Bingo session is scheduled for those passengers who like to stay up late and party. It’s a great way to ease into the late night events with some laughs and silliness - and maybe a BIG load of ca$h to cover your beverage bill. My Dad always told me, “you won’t win, if you don’t play.” Come on - it’s not Bingo like you remember growing up - this is RSVP Bingo! And - you can wear your “leather” - try that at your local bingo parlor! |
