Cruise weddings

Cruising has long been thought of as being synonymous with romance! It is not surprising therefore that a number of couples destined for the alter enquire as to the options of being married on a ship.

There are basically two options:

1. Being married in a chapel aboard the ship at sea by the Captain! There is only one major cruise line that provides this service – Princess Cruises. Princess ships such as Grand Princess, Golden Princess & Star Princess offer an onboard wedding chapel. Depending on the time of year these ships sail the destinations of the Caribbean, Europe, Alaska, Mexico, South Pacific (repositioning) and Australia/New Zealand.

A basic wedding package commences from approximately NZ$1500 and there are a large number of package options to suit your desire. For further information on Weddings at Sea packages please contact your iCruise Consultant or local travel agent.

2. Weddings in Port. This refers to those passengers that get married pre-departure or in a chosen port within their cruise itinerary. There are a host of things to consider with this option including obtaining marriage licences, witnesses, who will/can be present at the wedding, catering if required etc. The best advice is to contact iCruise who will work in conjunction with you to best facilitate your every need.
