A formal wedding has to be performed according to religious rights.There ought to be a priest who has to finalise the wedding.Here we have what is known as a registered wedding which is completed in the presence of two witnesses.I don't think a captain of a ship can perform a wedding.

A marriage should be conducted by those who is accepted by society
