Princess Cruises will celebrate the launch of its new ship by holding a wedding during the naming ceremony, it has been reported.
Danielle Vurpillat and Kip Hickman from California are to get hitched on November 6th during the ceremony to name Princess Cruises' newest addition, the
Ruby Princess liner.
Television personalities Trista and Ryan Sutter will serve as attendants and former captain of the Love Boat Gavin MacLeod will be giving away the bride.
The couple entered a competition to win the unique prize, writing in their
submission that it was their dream to create their very own "romantic milestone" by getting married aboard the Ruby Princess.
Jan Swartz, senior vice-president of Princess Cruises, said: "We aim to make this a fantastic romantic milestone for Danielle and Kip as they begin their life together as husband and wife."
The new Ruby Princess liner will offer guests a Lotus Spa and fitness centre, a number of different restaurants and a children's centre - and those caught up in the romantic mood could even get wed in the onboard wedding chapel.
