Love Aboard: Redefine Romance with Unforgettable Expedition Ceremonies

This Valentine’s Day, Swan Hellenic set hearts aflame with the launch of Love Aboard, an exclusive new way for couples to celebrate their love in the most breathtakingly remote regions of the world. Whether exchanging vows for the first time or renewing cherished promises, Love Aboard offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to mark these special moments amidst the spellbinding beauty of nature’s most untouched wonders.

Imagine saying I do as towering icebergs drift by, as the calls of Arctic seabirds echo across the fjords, or while the sun sets over the African coastline, casting golden hues across the water. Love Aboard transforms a romantic getaway into an unforgettable adventure, blending Swan Hellenic’s signature luxury with the thrill of exploration.

A New Era of Romantic Travel

Modern love stories are evolving. More and more couples are embracing the concept of the endless wedding—celebrations that extend well beyond the traditional ceremony. With Mega Moons, Buddy Moons, and Re-Do Moons rising in popularity, couples are seeking extraordinary experiences to share with loved ones. Love Aboard delivers exactly that, taking romance to the farthest reaches of the earth in the refined comfort of Swan Hellenic’s boutique expedition ships.

Each ship’s elegant Scandi-inspired design creates an atmosphere of sophisticated serenity, seamlessly connecting guests to the awe-inspiring landscapes that surround them. Whether it’s an intimate elopement or a grand celebration with family and friends, Love Aboard ensures every couple experiences an unparalleled journey of love and discovery.

The happy couple can step aboard knowing everything has been taken care of—they need only have eyes for each other, the extraordinary panoramas, and their loved ones.”
