ORIANA, Hamilton

For 26 year old Oriana Mees there could be no other place on earth that she would want to spend her wedding day than on board her namesake P&O Cruises finest ORIANA, a ship she has known about most of her life as she explained to The Argus newspaper "I knew all my life about the ship because people would say when I told them my name, 'oh, like the ship"
However it wasn't until 2 years ago when she and her partner Tom cruised on board for a romantic break that she would one day share another name with ORIANA, Hamilton Tom's surname, " It was as though it was meant to be " she said

"ORIANA, HAMILTON"

So when Tom proposed to her last year there was only one place she wanted to spend her special day,
Initially wanting to be married on this would not be possible unless the couple were cruising on board due to maritime law not allowing weddings until the ship is at least 12 miles out of territorial waters.
However not to be put off from enjoying her big day on board ORIANA she contacted The Argus paper to see if they could help to arrange something with P&O.
To which they replied  "We were delighted to hear Oriana's story. Our ship of the the same name is a very special one and we will do everything we can to help Oriana celebrate her big day on board."
