Arwen cannot stay till Aragorn's death and later take a ship. (daeron)

Why not? Sam, Legolas and Gimli all took a later ship, and I think that was after Aragorn's death. (Kath)

I think Legolas was the last known Elf to leave Middle-earth, and he had to make his own ship--by this time the Grey Havens were closed, and Círdan had already departed.
However, Arwen could not leave Middle-earth whether there was a ship to bear her or not. She had chosen to be mortal when she plighted her troth with Aragorn in Cerin Amroth.

I've heard of this story, but nothing more than the couple's names and races. Where can I read it? (Elianna)

I first saw their names in
Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth, in
HoME X.
My brain's currently in a weird place, and it won't be back for some time, so I'll have to address some points later.
