P&O Cruises - Ceremonies, Renewal of Vows, Engagements
A ceremony with P&O Cruises is a truly unforgettable experience. From the moment you step on board, we're here to make every detail feel effortless and every moment feel magical. Whether it's your wedding day, a vow renewal, or a commitment ceremony, we take care of everything so you can relax, celebrate, and soak up the joy of the occasion.
Legal weddings and commitment ceremonies are available on all seven of our ships. We also offer Renewal of Vows and Engagement packages across our entire fleet. To find the perfect ship for your celebration, visit the website or speak with our Ceremonies team.
When it comes to romance, many say the sandy beaches and swaying palms of the Caribbean provide the ultimate backdrop to your 'I do'. If that sounds like the dream destination for your special day, you can choose a barefoot beach wedding or a private ceremony on the beach or in the garden of the luxurious Fairmont Royal Pavilion resort in Barbados. And we'll help make this dream come true with a Ceremony on Shore.
Our Ceremonies team are here to help you book your special day. You can reach them Monday to Friday, 9 am–5 pm, via telephone or email, so we can help you make your dreams come true.

Ceremonies on Shore- Barbados
A P&O Cruises holiday is the ultimate way to unwind before taking your vows on the warm white sands of Barbados.
You'll have time to relax, enjoy both ship and shore, then get wedding-ready in the spa and salon. You can have fun together and, if guests are joining you, celebrate with your loved ones before your big day. If you join your ship in Antigua, you'll have your Barbados ceremony mid-way through your holiday, giving you plenty of time to relax and prepare for the big day, and to celebrate afterwards. Or, if you choose to board in Barbados, you'll have your ceremony on your last full day away, so you'll have time to soak up the sun before tying the knot and flying home to celebrate with family and friends.
