Yes. Our Ceremonies at Sea package includes a ceremony performed by your captain, who can also legally officiate the wedding. They will also sign a keepsake certificate for you to commemorate your special occasion 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.

Can the captain perform weddings?

Yes. On selected Caribbean fly-cruise holidays, couples can get married ashore in Barbados from 8 October 2025. You simply have to choose between a barefoot beach wedding or a private ceremony in the Fairmount Royal Pavilion luxury resort's beach or garden. We will liase with the resort team on your behalf so you can relax and enjoy your cruise with us.&nbsp;

Can you get married ashore through P&O Cruises?

Those sailing from Antigua can choose a Ceremony on Shore in Barbados mid-way through their cruise holiday, giving time to relax and prepare for the big day as well as celebrate after. Guests who choose to fly into Barbados can indulge in two blissful weeks before tying the knot on their last full day of the cruise, flying home to celebrate with loved ones.
