Can You Celebrate a Wedding on a Norwegian Cruise Line?: Yes. When a ship is in port, onboard weddings are normally performed in the ships chapel (if applicable), library, or lounge. Receptions are held onboard in one of the ships lounges. Weddings are not performed at sea. Ashore weddings are normally performed on a beach or at a garden. Each port of call has unique locations that a wedding planner can locate and secure for you.
Norwegian Cruise Line Wedding Packages : Wedding packages are tailored to a couple's needs and can range from a small ceremony and mini-reception, to a sit-down lunch, to a five-course meal when a ship is in port. Or bring family and friends along for a larger destination wedding and have the ceremony at a port of call.
Elements in a Norwegian Cruise Line Wedding Package : Norwegian Cruise Line offers two wedding packages, one for onboard ceremonies and the other for weddings taking place at a beach, garden, or gazebo. Both include an officiant, wedding coordinator at the ceremony, hour of photography, bride's bouquet and groom's boutonniere, and other perks. Available add-ons such as specialty flowers, music, videography, transportation, tuxedo rental, and reception menus increase the cost of the relatively low-cost basic package.

Vow Renewals on Norwegian Cruise Line: Vow renewal programs seem to vary from ship to ship and are included as part of the activity list at sea. On the Norwegian Sky, we joined in a free group vow renewal led by a Christian officiant. On the Norwegian Dawn, there was a fee to participate in the vow renewal ceremony.
