Unfortunately, when a citizen is incarcerated, they lose all rights and priveleges. That is the point of being incarcerated. So, technically, yes... a warden can stop a prisoner from doing anything that is not absolutely required to survive. Weddings are no different. And, in fact, weddings are conducted under law. If the prisoner wanted to do something in accordance with the law, they should have thought about that before breaking it. Generally, though, the act of legally marrying someone is not prohibited while in prison, though it may not be a traditional "wedding", per se.

YES!! The warden has the power to delay, postpone, or cancel any event within the prison walls. The only person above him administratively is the Govenor.

Yes, for a 100 reasons. The warden has the last say inside the walls.

If he wants to, he can. The warden is your temp Daddy and if Daddy says no, he means no.

No . HOWEVER< this wedding might not be taking place in person. If he is on death row, i doubt they will allow him to be with anyone in person outside of the prisoners or guards, lawyer etc.

He can do as he pleases. If the convict is not happy, he can contact his union rep:)
