The new Seven Seas Grandeur® will be christened on December 10, 2023 by none other than Sarah Fabergé. The leading luxury cruise line has announced that the founding member of the Fabergé Heritage Council and great-granddaughter of Peter Carl Fabergé will be godmother of the new ship.

Regent Seven Seas Cruises, the world's leading luxury cruise line, has been delivering an unparalleled experience for more than 30 years. With a maximum of 732 guests, the spacious and stylish ships sail to 450+ worldwide destinations.

The Seven Seas Grandeur is the newest ship in the fleet, which will enter service in November 2023. The ship is inspired by the past and ready for the future and is, in its own words, an excellent example of the Heritage of Perfection from Regent Seven Seas Cruises – the unprecedented space, the unparalleled service, the culinary delights and the transformation that happens to guests as soon as they step aboard. 

Baptismal Gala in Miami

Sarah Fabergé will christen the ship on December 10, 2023 during a stylish and exclusive gala in Miami, Florida. Actress and singer Kristin Chenoweth, who has won both an Emmy and a Tony Award, will perform for this occasion. After the naming gala, the ship departs for a three-night Caribbean cruise. After returning to Miami, the Seven Seas Grandeur will begin her first cruise season in the Caribbean. 

“Sarah symbolizes the ethos and qualities that characterize our two outstanding luxury brands”

Constant perfection

Sarah's choice as Godmother of Seven Seas Grandeur stems from Regent Seven Seas Cruise's partnership with Fabergé. The two companies previously unveiled a handmade Fabergé x Regent Seven Seas Cruises Egg Objet, the first Fabergé egg that will be permanently on display at sea. Andrea DeMarco, President of the shipping company, sees many similarities with the jewelry house: “Seven Seas Grandeur is inspired by the past and ready for the future. The ship is an example of the perfection that is woven into our heritage, and represents unprecedented space, unparalleled service, lavish opulence and the transformation that happens to guests as soon as they step aboard. Fabergé is also known for its constant perfection, unparalleled craftsmanship and constant pursuit of excellence, which is entirely in line with the core values ​​of our own renowned luxury brand.” 

Andrea continues: “As a founding member of the Fabergé Heritage Council, Sarah exemplifies the ethos and qualities that define our two outstanding luxury brands. She is therefore the ideal godmother for our newest ship. We are extremely honored that Sarah Fabergé has chosen to take on this role and welcome her to the Regent Seven Seas Cruises family.”
