Going way back and slightly off-topic...
I can remember when my sister was married back in the 70's. (Of course, I was but a child at the time...)
After the reception, she & the groom headed to the pier for a Bermuda honeymoon cruise, with a group of 20 or so of us in tow. We boarded the ship with a couple/few cases of Champagne & Asti and partied in the main hall until sail time. Since it was also the ship's "sail away" party, we were served by waiters circulating with hors d'oeuvres for everyone.
No one made arrangements in advance, no one checked ID, no one asked for a cruise card, and we all got off when they started blaring the "all ashore" whistle. Life was good. 😊
