Pickels Posted February 15, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 15, 2014 We would like to tie the knot on the AOS on our next cruise. Can RCI provide this service? Does the captain still do weddings? Would they keep it private? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coralc Posted February 15, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Royal Weddings link: http://www.royalcaribbean.com/weddings/home.do?cS=NAVBAR I don't think the captain does them...but I don't really know for sure, as we have never attended one. Congratulations and best wishes in your planning. :D:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted February 15, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Congratulations. :) Yes, you'll need to call them at the number provided, looks like Monday would be the soonest. Hope they can do it for you, as it looks like you have less than a month to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldgirl2 Posted February 16, 2014 #4 Share Posted February 16, 2014 We did a vow renewal on the Independence last year. The cruise director did our ceremony. The Captain does not do weddings. We did it in the chapel and it was very private. RCI was wonderful through the whole process. They were extremely accommodating. I highly recommend it. every penny. We thought it was worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmf123 Posted February 16, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 16, 2014 (edited) From the Royal Romance at Sea package on the RCCL website (my bold): "Since the beginning of time, the sea has romanced explorers, poets, and lovers alike. Now it can be the awe-inspiring backdrop to your wedding. Get married at sea, with the ship's captain or first officer officiating, in a ceremony that incorporates special nautical vows. You choose an ideal location onboard – like the chapel, with sweeping sea views from atop the ship, or out on deck against the endless horizon. This unique package takes full advantage of the time you'll spend together while onboard, with more romantic extras for you and your partner to enjoy, together." Friends of ours got married on Magen's Bay beach (St. Thomas) through Royal Romance, and everything was perfect. And you may find helpful info on the Honeymoon & Wedding Cruises forum here: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=31. :) p.s. I see that you have a March sailing coming up. I believe that Royal Romance requires at least 45 days notice... Edited February 16, 2014 by jmf123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rock the boat Posted February 16, 2014 #7 Share Posted February 16, 2014 My wife and I were married in St. Thomas on a cruise back in 2007. It was also the second marriage for both of us. Since St. Thomas is a U.S. territory. we did not need anything special. We had to fill out our marriage license and send it along with the $200. fee to the courts in St. Thomas. We had already arranged to be married by a minister. We went to a private beach and were married barefoot in the sand. Our best friends stood with us and that was it. Best of luck whatever you decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
