We got married on Yacht Starship IV out of Clearwater Beach and our wedding day was absolutely incredible. Everything went so perfect and smooth. Joey, our venue coordinator, was phenomenal down to every detail and keeping things running smoothly. We can’t thank him enough for taking care of us on our day. The other staff and Dj Pharaoh were also incredible. We have heard from family and friends that it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to! We cannot thank them enough for making it so special for us. 

Marczak Wedding, June 2023

We wanted a unique all in one ceremony and reception, we were exploring downtown when we came across yacht starship we looked at each other and thought “how cool would it be to get married on the water”. From the moment we contacted the boat for a meeting it was a amazing experience. We first met with Chris D to talk about the details, guest count, date and our vision once that was in place and contract was signed 3 month out we were contacted by Joey O (our day of coordinator). We scheduled an in person meeting to walk through the yacht and decide seating arrangements and table placements and talk time line. Every time I reached out with a question or concern I had an answer right away. Honestly this takes the stress out of wedding planning they were so helpful with everything. We were able to do a rehearsal the day before on our boat as well as bring on any décor that we would need to have set up & Joey made sure it was done and reflected our vision. Our wedding was Friday, June 16th and was flawless. We are still getting compliments on the amazing food and service by the waitstaff. A huge THANK YOU to Chris D and Joey O for helping us plan & pull off a flawless wedding. Mr. & Mrs. Marczak

How to Get Married on the Water

Expert tips for setting sail to tie the knot.

If you and your partner love being on the water, then hosting your wedding on a boat may be your dream scenario. This is a unique option for those who love sailing or cruising, or simply want the ultimate venue to fit a nautical theme. Not to mention, the photos of open water views with cityscapes or tropical islands in the distance are sure to be stunning. But if you’re thinking of setting sail on open waters for a wedding ceremony, reception, or both, some additional, specific planning is required.

Planning for a wedding on the water not only means working within the restraints of the specific vessel you want, but it also means taking Mother Nature and changing weather conditions into consideration. Here, we consult expert planners to learn tips, tricks, and the most important things to consider before you set sail and tie the knot.

Consider Time, Location, and Weather

Whether you’re choosing to charter a boat, planning a yacht party, or hosting a wedding reception on a cruise ship, time, location, and weather are important factors to consider. “Weather can have a huge impact on a waterfront or boating event and can change the guest experience and comforts quickly,” says Nick and Aleah Valley, owners of Valley & Company Events .

In your planning, be sure to check on where you’ll be leaving from and what the weather may look like that day. “Many coastal areas have zones where gale force winds can appear quickly and unexpectedly. Having a backup plan for wind and chilly temperatures is imperative,” adds the Valleys. “If it's too windy, some boats or yachts can't sail, which could mean your event is docked or canceled completely until conditions improve.”

Nick and Aleah Valley are the founders of Valley & Company Events , an event and wedding planning company based in Seattle, Washington.

Boat Options for Getting Married on the Water

Getting married on a boat can come in a variety of different shapes and sizes. Depending on your guest list and wedding vision, one option may be better than the others. Pricing will vary greatly, depending on the size of the boat, the style, and the region where you’re booking. Yacht and charter boat weddings may only require a fee for use of the vessel, while a cruise ship wedding requires paying for the cruise , along with fees specific to your wedding.

Tips for Yacht Weddings

A wedding reception on a yacht provides the ultimate view for a great celebration! You can choose to either host your ceremony elsewhere and then board the boat, or plan for both your ceremony and reception on the water.

To find the ideal yacht for your wedding, think about guest list size first. “Keep in mind that many states have maritime regulations prohibiting the rental of yachts for events or guest counts past a certain number,” says Nick and Aleah Valley. “Contacting the local maritime office is a good place to start for suggestions on how to charter a yacht. They may have recommendations for finding a yacht unless you have your own or have a connection to one.”

Once you know that your guest list count is in line with area regulations for a yacht, it’s crucial to consider space to guest ratio as well. Are there enough restrooms to accommodate your group? Is there enough elbow room to allow for a great guest experience?

You’ll also want to check if the yacht has appropriate kitchen facilities for your culinary team to create the perfect menu for your reception, along with space for other necessary rentals.

Tips for Charter Boat Weddings

If you’re hoping to charter a boat for your wedding, keeping size in mind is crucial here, too. Be sure to choose a boat that can accommodate your guest list and your specific needs. It's also important to double-check that the boat you plan to charter will fit the aesthetic and type of reception you're hoping for.

If you’re chartering a boat, insurance will also be required. “Talk to your insurance carrier about your personal policy and what the needs are to cover the event, the boat owner, and your guests,” says Nick and Aleah Valley.

It’s also important to consider the timing when chartering a boat. “Most charter boats have a very specific timeframe for when they can depart a port or marina, whether it's based on tides, locks, or marina rules, so this can dictate your event timeline,” says Nick and Aleah Valley. They suggest building a buffer into your day-of timeline so guests arrive and board the boat at least 45 minutes before your scheduled departure time. This will give guests time to get settled on the boat, and you can welcome them with happy hour drinks and snacks to kick off the celebration.

Tips for Cruise Weddings

Planning a ceremony or a wedding reception on a cruise ship means you’re on a much bigger boat. Typically, that also means there may be other guests onboard that aren’t part of your wedding. If privacy is important to you, be sure to ask the cruise ship’s planning team what your ceremony or reception space will look like, and what your options are for keeping it private.

Depending on the cruise, you may not be able to get married on open water at all. Legally, you may be required to choose to either celebrate your nuptials before the ship departs, or you can choose to say “I do” at the port of one of the cruise’s destinations. Working with the right planner will ensure you’re following the proper legal guidance for a cruise wedding or cruise wedding reception.

“Keep in mind the guest experience and the logistics of what can take place on a cruise,” suggests Nick and Aleah Valley. It’s important to check if you can have events at your leisure, or if you will have to stick to the cruise ship’s strict timeline and events.

How to Keep Guests Comfortable on the Water

While a boat wedding may be dreamy for you and your partner, especially if you’re used to being on the water, it may be tricky for some of your guests.

“ Seasickness can happen quickly, especially when guests are drinking,” says Nick and Aleah Valley. “Have a solid plan, and if you have an opportunity, pass out seasickness patches to your guests the day before your event so they can be prepared for being on the boat.”

Consider putting together welcome bags that might include bug spray, water bottles, sunglasses, and sunscreen. Another helpful option? Put out a big basket of hats and fans, along with a well-stocked station of snacks and water. It’s important that guests stay hydrated to avoid heat exhaustion.  

Questions to Ask Before Booking a Boat for Your Wedding

• Will there be enough space for our guest list?
• Is there air conditioning on board?
• Is there a maintenance crew that can assist with potential mechanical issues?
• What is the galley kitchen’s capacity for creating a meal?
• Is there a refrigerated place to store our cake? Will it fit?
• Can we incorporate our own décor?
• How many life preservers are on board?
• Is there a specific timeline we need to follow?
• What insurance is required for use?

After ironing these questions out, you'll be ready to sail off into the sunset as a married couple!

Nautical Nuptials: The Ultimate Guide to Planning Your Dream Wedding on a Luxury Yacht

Embark on a voyage of love and luxury as we unveil the ultimate guide to planning your dream wedding on a magnificent yacht. Set against the stunning backdrop of the open sea, this nautical-inspired celebration promises an intimate and enchanting experience for you and your beloved. From selecting the perfect vessel to curating a bespoke menu and incorporating unique entertainment, our comprehensive guide will ensure your special day is a seamless blend of romance and sophistication. Let the waves of love carry you towards a truly unforgettable nuptial journey.

Choosing the Perfect Yacht

The first step in planning your dream wedding on a luxury yacht is selecting the perfect vessel for your nautical nuptials. The size of the yacht is an important consideration, as it will determine the number of guests you can invite to celebrate your special day. Whether you desire an intimate ceremony with just a few close friends and family or a grand affair with a large guest list, there is a yacht that can accommodate your needs.

Interior design plays a crucial role in creating the romantic ambiance you envision for your wedding. From sleek and modern to classic and elegant, there are yachts with a range of interior styles to suit your taste. Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by exquisite décor and breathtaking views of the ocean.

When choosing a luxury yacht for your wedding, consider the amenities available. Some yachts offer spacious decks for outdoor ceremonies, while others have luxurious cabins for intimate indoor celebrations. Additionally, ensure that the yacht you select has the necessary facilities to cater to your guests, such as a fully-equipped kitchen and a bar.

Location options are another factor to consider. Whether you dream of a tropical destination wedding or a coastal celebration, luxury yachts can take you to stunning locations worldwide. From the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, the possibilities are endless.

Finally, budget considerations are essential when choosing the perfect yacht. Determine your budget beforehand and work with a reputable yacht charter company to find a vessel that meets your requirements without exceeding your financial limits.

Selecting the perfect yacht for your dream wedding is the first step towards creating unforgettable memories. Consider the yacht size, interior design, amenities available, location options, and budget considerations to ensure that your nautical nuptials are everything you’ve ever imagined and more.

Creating a Nautical-inspired Theme

To create a nautical-inspired theme for your dream wedding on a luxury yacht, you can incorporate elements such as maritime colors, seaside decor, and nautical motifs. Let’s start with nautical fashion, which can set the tone for your special day. Think about incorporating navy blue and white into your attire, with striped patterns reminiscent of the ocean. For the bride, a flowing white gown paired with a navy blue sash or nautical-inspired accessories can create a stunning look. The groom can opt for a navy blue suit with a white shirt and a striped tie for a touch of nautical charm.

When it comes to decor, DIY nautical elements can add a personal touch and save you money. Consider using rope, seashells, and anchors as centerpieces or table decor. For a whimsical touch, you can also incorporate miniature sailboats or lighthouse figurines. To set the mood, nautical themed invitations with a navy blue and white color scheme can be a great choice. The invitations can feature intricate anchor designs or wave patterns to give guests a glimpse of the nautical theme they can expect on your special day.

Finding the perfect seaside venue is crucial for a nautical-inspired wedding. Look for a luxury yacht that offers breathtaking ocean views, spacious decks, and elegant interiors. This will create a luxurious ambiance while providing a stunning backdrop for your ceremony and reception.

Lastly, don’t forget about nautical-inspired wedding favors to thank your guests for being a part of your special day. Consider giving out mini anchor keychains, personalized compasses, or even small bottles of sand and shells as a memento of your nautical-themed wedding.

Planning for Your Ceremony and Reception

When planning for your ceremony and reception on a luxury yacht, meticulous attention to detail is essential for creating an unforgettable nautical-inspired wedding experience. One of the first decisions you’ll need to make is whether to have your event outdoors or indoors. Outdoor venues offer breathtaking views of the open sea, allowing you and your guests to bask in the beauty of nature. On the other hand, indoor venues provide a more intimate setting, shielded from the elements, ensuring your special day goes smoothly regardless of the weather.

Destination weddings have become increasingly popular, and a luxury yacht offers the perfect backdrop for such a romantic affair. Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by crystal-clear waters and gentle ocean breezes, while your loved ones celebrate with you in a picturesque destination of your choice.

If you’re working within a budget, don’t worry. There are budget-friendly options available for your yacht wedding. Consider opting for a smaller vessel or choosing a weekday or off-peak season for your celebration. This way, you can still have the dream wedding you’ve always wanted without breaking the bank.

To add a personal touch to your nautical wedding, consider DIY decorations. Incorporate seashells, starfish, and anchors into your centerpieces and table settings. Use marine-inspired colors such as navy blue, white, and gold to create an elegant and romantic atmosphere.

Lastly, don’t forget to honor wedding traditions and customs. Whether it’s a champagne toast, cutting the cake, or throwing the bouquet, these time-honored rituals add a touch of tradition and symbolism to your special day.

Selecting the Ideal Menu and Drinks

For a truly memorable nautical wedding on a luxury yacht, careful consideration should be given to selecting the ideal menu and drinks. To create an intimate and romantic atmosphere, customized cocktails can be crafted to reflect the couple’s personalities and preferences. These signature drinks can be inspired by the sea, incorporating flavors like fresh citrus and tropical fruits, or even infused with herbs and spices for a touch of intrigue.

When it comes to the cuisine, gourmet options are a must. The menu should be designed to tantalize the taste buds of the guests, offering a culinary experience that is both elegant and indulgent. From succulent seafood dishes to perfectly cooked prime meats, every bite should be a celebration of flavor and texture.

To further enhance the dining experience, beverage pairing is essential. A knowledgeable sommelier can assist in selecting the perfect wines to complement each course, ensuring that every sip enhances the flavors of the gourmet cuisine.

It is also important to take into consideration any dietary restrictions of the guests. Offering a variety of options for different dietary needs, such as vegetarian or gluten-free dishes, will ensure that everyone can indulge in the culinary delights.

Lastly, dessert options should not be overlooked. From decadent chocolate creations to delicate pastries, the sweet ending to the meal should be a grand finale that leaves a lasting impression.

Incorporating Unique Decor and Entertainment

The ambiance of a nautical wedding on a luxury yacht can be elevated to new heights by incorporating unique decor and entertainment. To create a truly unforgettable experience, consider incorporating innovative lighting techniques that enhance the natural beauty of the yacht and create a romantic atmosphere as the sun sets over the water. Imagine fairy lights twinkling overhead, casting a soft glow on the deck, or strategically placed lanterns illuminating the pathways.

Interactive performances can also add a touch of excitement and intimacy to your nautical wedding. Consider hiring skilled artists who can engage with your guests, such as aerial acrobats or fire dancers, who can mesmerize everyone with their awe-inspiring skills. These performers can create magical moments, leaving your guests breathless and enchanted.

Customized tablespaces can further enhance the theme of your nautical wedding. Incorporate elements like seashells, driftwood, or coral as centerpieces, and use linens and napkins in shades of blue and white to mimic the ocean’s colors. Add personalized touches, such as customized place cards or menu cards, to make each table feel special and unique.

No nautical wedding would be complete without maritime music. Consider hiring a live band or a DJ who can serenade your guests with romantic melodies and upbeat sea shanties. The sound of music floating across the water will create a magical atmosphere, making your wedding a truly memorable experience.

Finally, surprise your guests with unexpected moments throughout the event. From surprise fireworks displays to releasing lanterns into the night sky, these unexpected surprises will leave your guests in awe and create memories that will last a lifetime.

In conclusion, planning a dream wedding on a luxury yacht offers a unique and romantic experience for couples seeking an unforgettable nautical celebration. From choosing the perfect yacht to creating a nautical-inspired theme, every detail can be tailored to create a truly magical event. With careful planning and attention to detail, couples can ensure a memorable ceremony and reception, complete with an ideal menu, unique decor, and entertaining surprises. A nautical wedding on a luxury yacht is the epitome of elegance and romance on the open seas.

Plan Your Perfect Wedding on a Boat

Getting married on land isn’t the only way to get hitched.

When we plan weddings, we are looking for absolute perfection. We are careful in choosing the destination, the venue, and the seating chart. Gardens and patios decorated with beautiful flower arrangements look amazing but if you want something more unique, you should have your wedding on a boat. Because as it turns out, getting married on the water is awesome! The overall impression of a wedding on a yacht charter is remarkable and at Boatsetter , we know you will cherish the memories forever. If you can have it all, why not set the date and have the most important event in your life on a yacht or a sailboat? So bring the reverend and don’t forget the rings, cause it’s time to get hitched!  

The Adventurous Wedding Destination 

Getting married on a boat can be far from regular and that’s the surprise element that everyone wants to achieve. People are used to regular weddings in great halls or gardens, but planning a wedding on a boat can bring excitement and adventure. Your guests will enjoy the breeze, beautiful sunset in the evening, and the magical moments under the starlight. You can even choose to say, “yes” at sunset on the deck, while orange sunlight covers you and your partner. 

The Wedding Ceremony and the Reception On the Boat

Some people choose to perform only a wedding reception on the boat. Apart from being very sophisticated, it can also be well received by the guests. They would all have to come at the marked time since the boat is set to raise sails. After the wedding ceremony family and friends are welcomed to enjoy the music since both the band and the DJ are allowed on a boat as your guests. Amongst the music, you can have an exquisite dinner, and enjoy the view over the subtle waves. 

Boats You can Rent for Your Wedding Reception

If you are worried that you won’t have enough space on your boat for your wedding, you don’t have to be when you hop aboard a Boatsetter boat . There are various types of wedding boat rentals, and you can choose between a yacht, a sailboat for an intimate wedding, or a catamaran which is a great option for larger receptions. If you prefer an intimate wedding or having just a couple of people onboard, you can choose either a small yacht or a sailboat. It will fulfill the scenario you wanted and you will keep the intimacy alive. Should you decide on a slightly bigger wedding, then a catamaran is spacious enough to host even large wedding parties. We guarantee that the impressions are strong, whatever your choice is.

The Perfect Wedding Photos on a Boat

Even if we don’t want to admit, we all want the perfect wedding photos. After all, you probably plan to show these to your kids and even grandchildren someday. Those will be lifelong memories, so imagine all the beautiful pictures you can take from a rented wedding boat. You will find the blue sky, warm sunlight, and the sunshine on the faces of happy guests during the day in your pictures. After all, when you get married on a boat, the atmosphere is genuinely incredible and it is definitely an option you have to consider when planning your wedding. So hop aboard, and get hitched on your Boatsetter boat rental !

Getting Married on a Luxury Yacht Charter

When combined with a full-service crew and exceptional cuisine, you can relax knowing that the attention to detail on board during your yacht wedding will be exceptional. Bespoke Yacht Charter has access to a large range of luxury charter yachts that are perfect for ensuring your luxurious yacht wedding is memorable for all the right reasons.

Benefits of hosting your wedding on a yacht:

• A complete yacht venue for the wedding ceremony and reception.
• Five-star cuisine and luxurious tailored wedding menus catered to your exact preferences.
• Yacht crew with impeccable service standards.

• Pre or post-wedding accommodation on board the yacht for the wedding party.

Please note that most charter yachts are only legally allowed to cruise with a maximum of 12 guests on board. However, Bespoke Yacht Charter has a selection of yachts available to charter for weddings for groups of up to 100 people at sea.

The 3 most crucial steps for Wedding Planning on a Luxury Yacht

• The first step should be determining what constitutes a legal marriage in your country of residence.
• Secondly, it’s crucial to research the legalities of marriage in the country where you will charter the yacht (the country you choose to marry in), especially if one or both of the couple is non-resident. This includes paperwork required, time frames and the procedure for marrying.

For example, in France you must have a civil ceremony at the Mairie (Town Hall) first, after which you can have a religious or secular ceremony anywhere you choose. Paperwork must be translated for non-French issued documents.

• Finally, combine the rules from both steps above to ensure whatever you plan meets all legal requirements.

Consult Your Personal Yacht Charter Broker

Choosing a charter yacht that suits your needs for your wedding can be daunting and a challenge for the unexperienced, so we strongly recommend consulting a yacht charter broker who has unrivalled knowledge about the specifications of each yacht in the charter fleet, crew insight and availability. Your broker will know which yachts will work for your wedding.

It’s important you choose a yacht charter company who is as excited about your wedding yacht charter as you are – this is your big day! If the company – and broker – are enthusiastic then they will source the perfect yacht and crew that will make your yacht wedding a memorable occasion.

A luxury yacht charter for a wedding comprises many elements beyond just food, décor, crew and a venue. Don’t hesitate to ask your yacht charter broker any questions around fuel, ports, taxes, yacht delivery fees and cancellation policies.

Your Wedding Day on a Luxury Yacht

It goes without saying that Bespoke Yacht Charter will bend over backwards to fulfil your wedding yacht charter expectations.

Hosting your wedding on a luxury yacht has several advantages, including the unique sense of adventure and exclusivity that being on a yacht provides. It is an opportunity to make your special day unforgettable for your guests.

Imagine getting married and then sailing off into the sunset to celebrate your wedding day with your loved ones. Luxury yachts are extremely versatile and make for the perfect wedding venue. When choosing a yacht for your wedding, treat it like you would any traditional wedding venue by ensuring it can accommodate your needs. Then, let your heart guide you to the dream location to hold your yacht wedding.

Event Rental Testimonials

“We used Event Rent for all of our wedding rentals like chairs, tables, and tents. Event Rent’s crew made setting up our wedding seamless and we were extremely grateful to have their help. Their crew was extremely professional and accommodating to our needs. If you are in need of rentals, Event Rent is your team.”

"I am a photographer and own a small boutique event rental company in the area. This past weekend there was a miscommunication between me and one of the other vendors I was working with on a styled shoot and I ended up needing to rent 6 ghost chairs the day of. Fortunately, when I called into Event Rent, they graciously were able to accommodate my needs...and all within 30 minutes! Pickup and dropoff were quick and easy. I can't thank them enough for saving my day!"

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Event Rent for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with the services they provided. Event Rent proved to be a valuable partner in ensuring our special day was a resounding success. One of the standout qualities of Event Rent was their punctuality. They delivered the chairs, linens, and tables right on schedule, and their timely pickup was equally impressive. Their reliability allowed us to focus on other crucial aspects of our wedding preparations without any concerns about the rental items."

An Insider’s Guide to Yacht Party Rentals

Yacht party rentals are fun territory to charter. Whether you’re looking to plan an epic corporate yacht party , host a birthday party on a yacht , rent a boat for a wedding , or throw a retirement party on a yacht , yachts are unique and exciting event venues. 

With more than 43 years in the yacht party business, our experienced team of event professionals is ready to walk you through the process every step of the way.

Party planning has never been so easy – especially with our insider tips and an expert team to help ensure yacht party success. 

Set your budget (and stick to it)

Whether a grand soiree or an intimate celebration, your budget is at the core of your master plan. Establishing a budget early on will help you decide what you want to prioritize – and that will help guide your decision-making. Need help planning? Contact our team . 

Budgeting is not a sexy topic, but evaluating what matters most to you can be fun. Are you more focused on food? Music? Decor? An exclusive guest experience?

Budgeting helps you stay on track. For example, when tempted to splurge for a ten-piece band or a five-tiered cake, you can always reference your budget and see if that’s in the cards. If it falls outside your allocated costs, there’s your answer (and scapegoat!). 

Evaluate entertainment

One of the best parts of hosting an event is delighting your guests. Thanks to Pinterest, Instagram, TikTok and a plethora of event publications, the possibilities to entertain your guests are endless.

–  A DJ or band will keep your guests moving. – A magician or comedian will offer laughter. – Signature tastings create an exclusive experience – Games like cornhole and life-size Jenga keep the mood light and fun.  – Photo booths with props act as social stations. 

Whatever you decide, consider the demographic of your guests and the vibe you want to evoke. You’ll want to be sure it hits all the right notes. 

Theme, decor, and rentals

Consider whether you want a theme for your event. It’s not necessary but can be a fun attribute. And when it comes to choosing a theme , there are so many to choose from!

If not opting for a theme, decide on the tone of your event. Formal? Casual? Cocktail? Your dress code will set the tone and help temper your guests’ expectations. Theme or no theme, you’ll need to decide on event decor (e.g., centerpieces, balloons, floral arrangements, color scheme) and determine what rentals you might need to fill your needs. Consider this a reminder that your yacht rental might not come equipped with furniture, linens, dinnerware, and other necessities. To make it easy, we have a list of trusted vendors and partners that we’ve worked with over the years for no-muss no-fuss logistical (and creative) planning.

Know your fleet

We take great pride in showcasing our luxury yacht fleet to prospective clients. Touring the fleet gives you a true sense of a yacht’s look and feel and seeing it first-hand. It’s also a terrific way to envision how the space can accommodate your needs.

– A dedicated bar – A designated lounge area
