coach_anne Posted January 14, 2006 #1 Share Posted January 14, 2006 My son will be getting married on board RCCL Explorer OS in June. :) The wedding will be while the ship is in port at Cape Liberty, NJ. My MIL, who has neither passport nor drivers license, will be attending the wedding but not sailing with us. Has anyone any idea what other photo ID the ship will accept to allow her on board for the wedding, or where to find out? :confused: TIA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sas80 Posted January 14, 2006 #2 Share Posted January 14, 2006 She doesnt have an ID card? Even if she doesnt have a passport or a drivers licence - most states require at least an ID card. Best to call the cruiseline or the wedding planners and ask this question, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseshipbride2b Posted January 14, 2006 #3 Share Posted January 14, 2006 the other options they gave us were state ID cards, or your birth certificate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cusyl Posted January 14, 2006 #4 Share Posted January 14, 2006 You can get a valid state ID at the police station I believe. My grandson got one because he doesnt have a drivers license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coach_anne Posted January 14, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted January 14, 2006 She doesnt have an ID card?Even if she doesnt have a passport or a drivers licence - most states require at least an ID card. For what? As far as we know, she has no photo ID, not even a credit card with her picture on it. :rolleyes: I wonder if there's any NYState place to ask about getting a state-issued (i.e., official) non-drivers photo ID? Best to call the cruiseline or the wedding planners and ask this question, eh? Have asked TA, and will tell DIL2B to ask Royal Romance. TA has much more patience than I in dealing with RCCl customer service, and better connections, too! :D Will post answer here whenever I get one -- just in case other wedding parties have similar issue.

coach_anne Posted January 14, 2006 Author #6 Share Posted January 14, 2006 Will post answer here whenever I get one -- just in case other wedding parties have similar issue. My wonderful TA quickly replied: "From what RCCL says, any type of gov't issued photo id. If she doesn't have DL, she should be able to get a DMV issued ID card with photo. How does she normally board airplanes? <-- That's what RCCL asked me." That's a good question -- she HAS flown, albeit rarely and not recently. OK, time for DH to call his mother...

sd1029 Posted January 14, 2006 #7 Share Posted January 14, 2006 My 87 year old grandmother does not have a DL or ID card, Carnival called customs for me and told me that my grandmother can use her credit card that has her photo on it for an ID. I was also told that children did not need an ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree25 Posted January 14, 2006 #8 Share Posted January 14, 2006 My stepdad lost his wallet before our wedding aboard the cruise ship.. he had absolutely no identification and they let him on the ship for our wedding on the Ft. Lauderdale Pier. Just have to do some smooth talking He was also able to somehow buy an Airline ticket home without any identification either.. they will let him on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
