Knowing that so many of you know EVERYTHING there is to know about cruising (!), any suggestions on getting married on board?

We have booked a Spring Break cruise on the Imagination in March and one of my sons is interested in getting married before we sail.
Has anyone done this on the Imagination? If the ship doesn't have a chapel, where do they hold the ceremony? About how much does it cost?
She's a Canadian citizen, does she need anything other than her passport with her?

Any insight and things we should know beforehand? I know we need to contact the Guest Services at Carnival and we will, just would like some first-hand information from the experienced.

Thanks in advance!
Excited as I can be..

I can not help with info on the Imagination,but my sister-in-law was married on the Carnival Glory May 2007. The Glory had a small chapel on board. Everthing about the wedding was very nice. You can arrange for a band, flowers, etc.
The photographer did a great job. And they only paid for the pictures they chose to keep. No sitting fees.After pricing what it would cost for a normal church wedding and reception at home, the wedding aboard ship and their cat. 11 suite was cheaper. By the way, if you want them to marry abord ship, it has to be at the pier before the cruise.

My friend is getting married in April on the Inspiration. All I know at this time is that we have to be at the ship by 10am. The wedding will be held in one of the fancy rooms on board.
The cost of the wedding is significantly less than a "traditional" wedding. I'll get more info and post at a later date.
