My brother in law is 21 and marrying a girl who is 19. They want to go on a cruise for their honeymoon but all the policies say that if you are under 21 you need to be accompanied by someone older than 25. Is she not going to be allowed to go on the cruise or will they make an exception since she is married and accompanied by her husband?

Carnival does make exceptions for married couples.
Below is the info from the www.carnival.com webpage regarding the exception.
However, you should check your specific cruise providers policies.
Be sure to understand what documentation will be required to travel, ie fully executed marriage license...It takes time to get this back after you get married....
How old do you have to be to travel alone?
Guests are required to be 21 years old (on embarkation day) to travel. Guests under the age of 21 must be accompanied in the same stateroom by a parent or guardian 25 or older. The exceptions Carnival will make to this policy are:
Married minor couple - The booking must be documented that the couple is married. The couple must have proof of marriage at embarkation or they will be denied boarding without the benefit of a refund.
Domestic Partners/Same-Sex Union minor couple - The booking must be documented that the couple are legal Domestic Partners/Same-Sex Union. The couple must have legal proof of partnership/union at embarkation or they will be denied boarding without the benefit of a refund.
Guest ages will be verified at embarkation. Guests not conforming to this policy will be denied boarding and assessed a 100% cancellation penalty. NO exceptions will be made at embarkation.
The Group policy is slightly different because of stricter group terms and conditions including mandatory chaperones, damage deposits and other considerations.

You are definitely going to want to call the cruise line on this one. You don't want to get information that is not accurate and then your brother in law not be able to get on the cruise with his new wife.
It is really hard telling what they would do. Since he is not 25, they very well could refuse them to board. But, since she is married she may be considered old enough to go, that could be the case in some situations, but possibly not a cruise.
If I were to guess, I would say that the cruise line will not allow her on, if it is in their policy. But, I would definitely verify either way before hand.

Most cruise lines make exceptions for married couples.
