Can the captain perform weddings?

Yes, our Weddings at Sea and Renewal of Vow packages include a ceremony performed by your captain, who can legally officiate the wedding. They will also sign a keepsake certificate for you to commemorate your special memories for years to come. In the unlikely event that your captain is unavailable, your deputy captain will be happy to conduct your ceremony and sign your certificate.
