Can you get legally married on a cruise ship?

How does getting married on a cruise work?
A legal marriage falls under the rules of a country, so your ceremony won’t be on the open seas. Having it onboard a ship at your home port before the cruise sails lets you pick the clergy and invite guests who can’t join you on the cruise.
What cruise lines can you get married on?
Carnival Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, and Royal Caribbean all offer wedding packages that include ship access for non-sailing guests who wish to be present during your ceremony.
