Carnival Cruise Lines is excited to announce the FIRST ever Cooper River Bridge Run wedding in Marion Square- a FIRST for Charleston, a FIRST for the Run, and a FIRST for Carnival! Carnival Cruise Lines is inviting interested couples to submit an application for a chance to be the first to tie the knot or renew vows at Carnival’s “beach” in Marion Square, after racing to the altar in the 2011 Cooper River Bridge Run. Carnival Cruise Lines’ Race to the Altar fundraiser will benefit MUSC Children’s Hospital as part of a year-long partnership.
“We are very excited to be a part of such a unique first for both the Cooper River Bridge Run and Charleston,” said Jim Berra, senior vice president and chief marketing officer for Carnival Cruise Lines. “This is a great opportunity to create a wedding experience that really captures the spirit of spontaneous fun that we provide during a Carnival cruise, while also raising money for the patients at MUSC Children’s Hospital.”

Funds raised during the Bridge Run through participation of the Charleston public will be donated by Carnival to MUSC Children’s Hospital. The partnership includes several in-kind and monetary donations and fundraisers, as well as bringing smiles and fun to the patients of the MUSC Children’s Hospital with quarterly visits by Carnival Fantasy crew members.
