HAVING THE CAPTAIN OFFICIATE Have your heart set on the boss performing your marriage rites at sea? If so, you’ve got only one choice: Princess Cruises. Their Diamond-, Coral-, and Grand-class ships are currently the only ones where the captain himself does the honors, performing six or seven civil ceremonies a week. Adorned with fresh flower arrangements and stained glass, the ships’ charming wedding chapels seat about three dozen. Assistant pursers in dress-blue uniforms are available to escort a bride down the miniaisle.

On Holland America, for example, couples can renew their vows at a special group ceremony at sea, catered with drinks and cold hors d’oeuvres; the $129 package includes a floral arrangement in your cabin, a photo and photo album, a certificate presented by the captain, and dinner for two at the Pinnacle alternative restaurant. Princess offers souped-up vow-renewal packages for $205 and $485 per couple. The former includes the ceremony, an orchid bouquet and boutonniere, a bottle of champagne and AC T I V E T R AV E L & A DV E N T U R E C R U I S E S 35 souvenir champagne glasses, a framed formal portrait of the ceremony, a commemorative certificate signed by the captain, and a framed photo of the ceremony; the latter adds a champagne breakfast in bed, two terry-cloth robes, a visit to the spa for half-hour massages or facials, canapés or petit fours in your stateroom every evening, and a personalized invitation from the captain to visit the bridge while in port.

Oceania Cruises operates four even smaller vessels, carrying only 684 passengers apiece in a country-club type setting. NCL also still offers a couple of midsizers, though they’re the older ships in their fleet and are already on the chopping block. ) Among the true ultraluxury lines, midsize is about as big as it gets, excluding Cunard’s megaliners. Crystal and Regent Seven Seas both operate ships in the 50,000-ton range, carrying 700 to 940 passengers—a telling figure when you consider that MSC and NCL’s similarly sized ships pack in twice as many passengers.
