Congrats—you’re engaged! Choosing a venue or destination for your wedding ceremony and celebration is one of the most important decisions that you’ll make during the planning process. Are you thinking about having a destination wedding? How about having your wedding on a cruise?! This is possible and makes for an incredible wedding day full of lasting memories.
When you choose to have your wedding with Princess Cruises, you can tie the knot at sea! With this exciting option, you can get married by the ship’s captain. It’s possible to have a legal ceremony in the cruise ship library or wedding chapel. You can also plan to get married harborside or ashore if you prefer. Cake, flowers, appetizers, and drinks can be provided for your celebration as well!
Carnival Cruise Line also does weddings! They take care of much of the planning so that couples can relax and enjoy the entire cruise and wedding experience. When you decide to walk down the aisle with Carnival Cruise Line, you can get married aboard the ship while at port, while sailing at sea, or an incredible destination of your choosing. You can even have non-sailing guests join you to celebrate. There are options for all couples-—whether planning a more intimate celebration or a grand wedding.
Celebrity Cruises is another option if you want to get married while cruising. When you choose to celebrate your love with Celebrity Cruises, they can handle much of the planning details for you. They can provide music, entertainment, flowers, photography, spa services, and more! This will allow you to fully enjoy the day rather than trying to work out all of the small planning details. Many packages are available, and you can get married on the ship or once you arrive at port. They also do vow renewals and perform legal same-sex marriages.
You can also choose to have your wedding with Royal Caribbean. This cruise line offers packages that are meant to make your wedding stress-free and fun. Various packages are available for booking, whether you wish to say I do at sea, during embarkation day, or on port day. Royal Caribbean can take care of all of those important details like the cake, photos, salon services, and entertainment. When saying I do with Royal Caribbean, both small intimate ceremonies and large weddings are welcome.
You don’t have to have a traditional wedding. Instead, celebrate in an incredible destination or at sea while taking the cruise of your life. This experience will make for an exciting way to begin your marriage!
