We recently had our ceremony & reception on the Ovation yacht and it was over and above our expectations. The entire planning process was easy and well communicated. Day of - fantastic! Coming from someone who is usually the orchestrator of events, giving that up to someone you just met was not easy, until we met Christie & Faith, they both took care of every last detail throughout the night. Faith gave us phenomenal service and everything was perfect! Our guests are still raving about our wedding and the delicious food.

I highly recommend this wedding venue! We had our wedding on the ovation and it was the best experience. Rachel was great with helping us plan our wedding and the day of team made sure the day went smoothly. I especially loved how attentive they were to myself and my husband on the day of. They had food waiting for us after the ceremony and made sure we never had an empty drink. I couldn’t have had a better day!

My husband and I just got married last week on Thursday and celebrated our reception on the infinity yacht, docked out of Port Detroit. Being completely transparent, I have very mixed reviews regarding the company. Our actual wedding night was fabulous; Christie was our cruise director and she was amazing! She was very prompt and straight to the point, she met all of our wants and needs! The boat itself was beautiful and the tour of the Detroit river was spectacular!
However, literally one week before our wedding, the infinity accounting department, specifically Dominique, reached out to us stating our final bill was due when we had multiple receipts that stated our final bill was due after our tour date. My husband and I both don’t work in the industry and when we signed our initial contract, dated well over a year prior to our wedding, the contract stated our final bill was due after the wedding/tour date and we financially planned around those bill due dates. When I brought this to the attention of the accounting department, I was met with a rude response to which I had to screenshot multiple statements showing our bill was due later. Ultimately after pulling my husband into the email thread, we “resolved” the issue- to which Infinity still did not honor what they put in print on our contracts and they supplemented by offering us free champagne and cookies upon boarding and exiting the boat. This whole ordeal left a horrible taste in our mouths of how this company runs their business, and ultimately they are in the business of money making- not necessarily wedding and event making. If you want to move forward with this company for your wedding, please be warned to triple check all of your paperwork and due dates as this definitely added an unnecessary amount of stress to my husband and I literally days before we got married.

Outstanding service. Very attentive to details and our vision. My husband and I are huge procrastinators and aren’t the most organized, but they kept us on track with deadlines and what all we needed to do! They made the already overwhelming wedding planning incredibly easy, especially Rachel Joseph!!! 10/10 recommend!

If you are looking for a unique wedding venue that will blow your guests away, the search is over. If I could rate this venue 10 stars I would. First and foremost, the cost. When we were favoring Infinity & Ovation, we quoted 10 other venues to try to beat the cost, and we couldn't come close. The fact that they have a package including DJ, floral, linens, cake, food, alcohol, basically everything you need, makes planning so much easier and affordable. The only outside vendor we brought in was our photographer and videographer, they took care of the rest. Next, the planning. You get a wedding planner, Rachel, included. She touched base with us monthly to make sure we were on track with everything (planning meetings with the vendors, paperwork, etc.). If there was ever a question we had, her responses were quick and detailed. She made us feel so comfortable and organized, everything a bride needs to feel, so our planning process was fun and exciting. Now for the big day, it was PERFECT! We had our ceremony there on shore, it is such a beautiful setting and our pictures turned out so amazing with the water as our back drop. The rehearsal planning was so easy and gave us great confidence for the big day. The reception on the Ovation yacht, so much fun!!! Our guests are still talking about how much fun they had. Many married couples wish they chose the Ovation as their venue for their weddings. I have had a lot of bad wedding food over the years, but the food on the Ovation was delicious! Great variety, something for everyone. The bartenders kept drinks flowing smoothly. The DJ kept the party going and the dance floor full (something very important to us). Our day of coordinator, Sydney, made sure my groom and I had everything we needed (drinks, water, food, lipstick, everything!) we never had to lift a finger and felt like a king and queen on our special day. Sydney even collected all of our wedding supplies and loaded them up in our family's vehicle so no one had to worry about a thing.
The customer service is top notch. The communication with your planners is so efficient. Plus, you will wow your guests with a day on a large, beautiful yacht.
Just book it, you know you want to.

The Ovation team did a fantastic job at our wedding celebration on June 8, 2024. The food was great, and the staff were super friendly. Faith, the coordinator for the day, worked with genuine effort to ensure everything went smoothly. I highly recommend the Ovation team and venue for your event.

What a time we had on our special day on July 21, 2023!! We planned our ceremony in 4 months with Ms. Rachel and crew @ IOYC (which was insane, but we got it done, whew! LOL) Everyone was SOOOO accommodating and helpful. From decorations to food and beverages, music, and more, this company is beyond a well-oiled machine! Everything went so fast, the planning was superb and everyone was on point with every detail. My husband and I talk about it at least once a month; and family and friends are STILL raving about the fabulous time we all had. We were so blessed to experience the Ovation and our home reflects our special day with large portraits in every room! We also had a huge viewing of our ceremony and reception at our home, where we all relived the amazing experience. We wish to thank IOYC once again for making this moment in our lives the best and we hope to see you soon for our anniversary! We appreciate everything and kudos to EVERYONE involved! Yayyyyy!!!!

My wedding day, 8-26-23 was an amazing day and experience. Where do I began, the staff coordinating our wedding was so professional and amazing. Rachel, Dominique and Faith made my entire wedding a breeze in one way or another. The Infinity Ovation made sure that everything was in place and that my day would be as smooth and amazing as I wanted it to be, I recommend the Ovation it was absolutely beautiful, all the vendors were on point and was there to bring my idea’s to light! All my guests continue to speak on my wedding day, it was a unforgettable experience!

We had a great experience. The only other vendor we had to hire was the photographer. Every vendor in our package was excellent and worked well together since they had worked together before. The yacht looked lovely, the food was great and the staff was attentive. The day of the wedding we didn't have to worry about a thing except having a good time. One thing to note: unless you want nothing but chairs at your ceremony and you need no flowers besides the bride and groom then expect to pay a couple grand more for decorations.

Just had my wedding with them. So much went wrong. Let's start from the beginning. We booked a couple years ago and because of covid it was pushed back. Not their fault. What was their fault was their false promises. I was promised specific food and they later told us it wasn't possible. Very simple food for brunch. Was told there was a suite to get ready on. Was then told there wasn't. I ended up hiring a planner because the communication was so poor and needs were not being met.
Food was cold when served to us. Not an issue for guests as their food was warm. The way food was served was inefficient and caused our timeline to be pushed back. Bridal party had to wait in line for food. We went to a tasting and you were provided a sample menu that could most likely not be your menu. Was told the officiant was included then told a month out it wasn't. A month out told our numbers would need to be reduced. Reduced the numbers and weren't compensated. Communication about covid restrictions were not great. They waited until it was about a month out to tell us even though we had been in frequent contact.
Good things to know: Ceremony site is not private so there may be people wandering (this was not an issue for us but noticed during the rehearsal)
You have to use their dj services, florist, caterer, and bakery. No real issues with any besides the dj. Frequent issues with music not being queued, wrong songs played, music being played from a cell phone with poor quality and feedback etc.
The gazebo was dirty. We did not sail out to where we should because of timing. Didn't have people sign the life saver which was supposed to be the guest book.
The drinks were good. Open bar. Service for the bride and groom. (Us) was great and they were attentive. Decorations were great. Flowers were great. Customer service was decent. Guest say the service was good. Help for guest with accessibility issues was excellent. Guests enjoyed being on the yacht.
All in all we were not satisfied and feel if we had known about the hidden fees, the poor communication, and the false promises we would have canceled instead of rescheduling and feel their lack of communication and preparation could have been prevented and need major work. For the price you pay it was not worth it at all.

My husband and I enjoyed the Infinity Yacht very much. Despite the waves that day, it made for a super fun and memorable event. The staff was very organized and demonstrated excellent customer service from start to end. They made us feel so special on our wedding day; normally we would worry about "hosting" the event, but they truly made us feel like we were the main event! It was a day to remember for sure. Thank you, Infinity Yacht.

First time I seen the ovation, I fell in love with this for my wedding. We chose the infinity for our wedding and it was an amazing turn out. A lot of the catering is included and for what we paid, it was well worth it. Wasn’t crazy expensive. Melissa and her crew have helped us out so much when it came to planning our wedding. That was two years of planning. They are very responsive and will give you your wants and needs for your special day. We wouldn’t of had it any other way for our wedding day. Most amazing experience ever and sharing it with family is the best part as well. The crew that was on the yacht was very accommodating to what everyone was drinking and making sure everyone had everything they needed.

My daughter recently had her wedding reception on the Ovation. The service and food was good. Things seemed pretty organized. The photo booth guy did a great job.
However, a total thumbs down for their DJ. Songs that were requested (before the wedding) to be definitely played at the reception- well- never happened. He was in his own world. We also had requested Motown music, as a suggestion- forget it. Would have been nice, since our family is from Detroit. He had his own ideas and that was it. He was not interested in catering to the many over 50 crowd at all. Thank you.

Let me start off by saying we had a wonderful time in spite of the weather. The day did not go as we planned due to the weather, but the staff was awesome. From Bridgette to Melanie, and Brittney you ladies are amazing and I could not have asked for a better event coordinators. The whole day you guys made me and my husband feel like Rock stars regardless if we could not sail we was able to still have a fantastic wedding. Brittney you and the staff that day was very accommodating even making a garter for me for my husband to toss. A special thanks to the VP Steven who spoke to us directly and we thank you for your kind words. The food was great and the Drinks were awesome. Thank you all for turning a not so bright and sunny day into a day of remembrance, with elegance and superb service.

I&O gave me the best night of my life. Enough said. I will try my best to describe how truly wonderful these people are and how I had a better wedding than everyone else. Do you want a venue that has the kindest people and ALWAYS respond to you in a timely manner? I think that I probably annoyed Laura 10/10 times, but you would never know because she always emailed me back when I had questions within 48 hours, usually sooner than that. She was always incredibly accommodating and made things happen. Even when I thought I had stupid questions, she would walk me through everything and treat me with so much respect. She was the best "wedding planner" (that is what I called her because it was basically like having a wedding planner without hiring anyone) that I could ask for. She then handed me off to Melanie, who was just as kind and just as accommodating, and made sure I had everything ready for the big day. Then, on the day of, I had Brittney who was the cruise director for my wedding. You would think this was annoying, because the two people who helped me through the whole year weren't even there. I thought it was annoying. UNTIL Brittney literally made everything awesome. On your wedding day, you're all over the place. You don't remember what you are supposed to be doing or what time it is, etc. Brittney made sure to find me every time it was time for something, take off from the docks, cake cutting, first dance, etc. That might not sound like a big deal to people, but none of that would have even happened if it weren't for her because I was being pulled in every direction that night. I literally forgot my garter AND bouquet to throw. This woman gathered resources and MADE me a garter out of medical supplies, and made me a bouquet to throw. The staff. OH MY GOD. Every time I didn't have a drink it my hand, they were right there handing me the next one. They danced with me, made sure I was doing okay, made sure I had food, desserts, etc. EVERYONE was amazing.

IOYC (Infinity and Ovations Yacht Charters) was the absolute best! I had to plan my wedding from out of country, so I didn't get to taste the food, cake, see the decorations etc. Was all done via email. And infinity and ovations went above and beyond in making my dream wedding come true! Bridgette was my initial contact, and was amazing on following up, Melanie was my contact so if i need anything or change anything, she was my go to girl. And Jill was my coordinator for the day, an amazing woman who got everything organized and running smoothly. Such an amazing team! I love how IOYC was all inclusive. For a bride planning an out-of-country wedding, it was a godsend that i found a venue i love, that is all inclusive, and the ppl are so helpful in helping planning your big day. Btw, the food was the most amazing food I've ever had at a wedding, and everyone talks about it! If I could redo my wedding, I would change nothing. Can't change perfectiom!

6/30/18 - Our wedding aboard the Ovation was spectacular. Our guests were floored by the first class service, food, and ambiance. Multiple guests commented on the uniqueness of the venue.
My coordinators, Laura and then later on Melanie, were both fantastic. Ovation takes the pressure out of wedding planning by having vendors pre selected (the baker, florist, etc) so we had to do very little planning. For any remaining questions, our coordinators responded to our needs immediately and were always thorough.
I would 100% choose this venue again, as the staff was remarkable, planning was simple, and family and friends left happy.

Incredible experience from the moment you step foot in the office until you’re headed off to your Honeymoon! Infinity and Ovation Yacht Charters (IOYC) has a wonderful team of coordinators to help you along every step of the way. Everything included in their packages (cake, catering, bar service, floral/decorations, ceremony, officiant, DJ service, and more) is booked, billed, and set up through them. They pick the best in the business, and since it’s all-inclusive, you only have to send payments to one place, which is quite convenient. Even for things that aren't included, like stationery and photography, they have tons of great suggestions and help you in any way they can! My wedding coordinator, Jennifer, promptly and thoroughly addressed every question and concern I had during the planning process – all I had to do was give her a call or send an email. They truly try their best to make planning a wedding as stress-free as possible. I was honestly dreading a lot of aspects of wedding planning (I’m generally indecisive and disorganized), but they made it all SO easy.
As far as the actual event, IOYC’s coordinators have weddings down to a science. If a problem comes up, they handle it - my husband somehow lost his boutonniere before the ceremony and my day-of coordinator, Ashley, made him one on the spot. When we arrived to the marina, everything was set up for us, and they took everything down at the end of the night. The staff even helped my father load our gifts into his truck before he left! The food quality was excellent (seriously, we all ate so much during dinner we barely had room for cake), the drinks were delicious and generously poured, the staff were courteous and attentive, and the evening was full of plenty of little surprises that made our evening memorable for so many. The yacht charter is a unique event, and I would highly recommend it for someone who wants something different than your typical wedding. You cannot go wrong with IOYC – they are worth every penny for the convenience, quality, and level of service.

5 Stars, without hesitation. We would do this again, and have already recommended it to our friends and family. From the very start, Bridgette Haas was knowledgeable and professional, and she answered every question with assurance and friendliness and experience. The event was a wedding reception and the entire day was flawless. Our cruise director, Rebecca, and the whole staff made us feel very special. The venue was elegant and the food was impeccable. We would not change a thing.

Words cannot explain how much I appreciated working with this team. The entire process was so smooth and my wedding day was incredible! I did not have to worry about finding a vendor because they provide the floral company, dj, cake company, recommendations for entertainment, and the food was delicious! Most of my guests came from out of town and they were so overwhelmed with how unique and beautiful the venue was. Laura, my wedding coordinator, what's the best. She followed up with everyone and I always felt as if I was the only bride she was working with. I will give them 10 Stars if I could!

I had the most amazing time at my wedding. Everything was perfect. It rained and the staff was quick to do an indoor ceremony that was beautiful and probably better than the outside ceremony would have been. The staff was very attentive throughout the whole night and made sure that my husband and I were well taken care of. The drinks were fabulous in the DJ kept the party going on night long.the food was amazing and multiple guests told us that the food was some of the best that they have ever had at a wedding. I could not imagine having my wedding anywhere else. I would choose this place again and again. there was absolutely nothing I would change about my wedding or reception.

The team here was so friendly, helpful and organized. All of our family lives out of state and I can't tell you how wonderful it was to have a team that helped with the cake, the catering, the flowers and the music all in one place. It was like having a wedding planner!
Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great the food was and the venue itself is simply stunning with the boat and the lights and the view. It's such a unique experience that will make our wedding even more memorable. The staff there was extremely helpful also. At the end of the night they had everything ready for us to go and they loaded it into the car for us - they would hardly let us lift a finger to help.
There's so much happening on the wedding day and as a bride, it was so reassuring to know that I had someone there who was in charge of when things were happening , what to announce, where the flowers would be dropped off at, when things needed to start, etc.
My experience was everything I was hoping for.

I can't say it enough-if you want a unique reception, this is the place to go! Our reception aboard the Ovation was beyond perfect and the 5-star service made us feel like royalty. Honestly, if anything went wrong, I still have no idea because our cruise director Ashley H. did an AMAZING job. It rained on our day, so Ashley moved the dancing to the 2nd floor and would run everything by me before making a final decision. We worked with Jennifer R. throughout our planning process and she was the best ever; quick responses, always willing to help, and explained everything to us. The entire Ovation staff made the reception perfect. It is literally worth every single penny we spent.

Planning our wedding with IOYC was a great experience overall. Planning long-distance has the potential to be very stressful, but IOYC makes it so easy to not worry. They took the hard part out of planning, all we had to do was set up meetings and show up to make it our own. The service leading up to the day was excellent. Jennifer made sure I had all the information I needed to make it great. She fielded my many questions, and made sure that I was good to go. However, we hit a few snags with the rehearsal. In the week leading up to the wedding, I checked in with Jennifer to make sure there was a back-up rain plan for the rehearsal, which there was. Feeling confident, we all showed up for rehearsal, where it began to sprinkle, then downpour. I had to stop the rehearsal coordinator and ask her to switch to the back up plan. She said she was not able to, and wanted to continue rehearsal in the pouring rain, while all of our bridal party got soaked and was freezing cold. The rehearsal coordinator eventually agreed to move us in to the gazebo and just verbally go through the process. She seemed confused by my plan for the bridal party entrance, and couldn't quite seem to get the point.
After I left the rehearsal, I made a call to Jennifer, who got back to me right away. I told her what had happened and my concerns about it, and she was very sympathetic to the issue. She took it upon herself to try to make the situation right.
Wedding day: The service was great. Our guests were blown away by the professionalism of the staff. The food was incredible. From the sound of it, some people did not get cake/desserts, as they did not see them being served. I felt that the service fell a little flat for the bride and groom, but overall, they did a great job with our other guests needs. The end of the night seemed like the staff was a bit confused. We ended up with 3 boxes of cake, and told that they were all the top layer of our cake. Still not sure what is in all the boxes.

From the first moment we checked out the ceremony site and the Infinity yacht, we know this is the place we want to get married (this is our first venue to check out). Since we really like the feel of get married near the beautiful lake since we are in Michigan!!! And from that moment, we have been taken care of. Everything is hassle-free. The team who helped out are very responsive and responsible. They helped out on every detail we paid and not paid attention to! On the day of event, they have arranged it better then we have expected. Some of things I brought for deco and did not give enough time for instruction. However, they have figured all of them out and put them in a better way than I have initially thought. Everything flows so well on the day due to their fantastic arrangement, and changes are quickly Incorporated. The vendors they have carefully chosen are also fantastic! Thank you very much, the whole team, Alison, Brittany, Michelle!

I can't even describe how fantastic this company is. Alison was perfect and stuck by my side the whole time and answered any question I had. I've continued to have my guests say what a wonderful time they had. Everything was perfect! We love Infinity and Ovation Yacht Charter!

There is no where else that I would have had my wedding. I dreamed of this venue for over a decade and when I was finally engaged, is was the only place we even looked at. Everything was perfect... the food was absolutely delicious, the staff was so attentive, responsive, and helpful, and the venue itself is simply breathtaking. Our guests can't stop raving out what a unique wedding it was, and coupled with my own DIY details, it could not have been more perfect. I loved every minute of my experience from the first tour to the last moment I stepped off the boat and left for my honeymoon.

I planned my wedding from overseas so it was really important that we worked with a flexible staff. Everybody we worked with was fantastic (we worked with Laura Stewart with the Ovation who was enormously helpful with recommendations and all the vendors were top of the line. Everything went smoothly and we had a blast!

I couldn't have been happier with how my wedding turned out with Infinity and Ovation Yacht Charters. The staff was absolutely incredible. It rained on our special day which made me a bit nervous at first, but when I showed up I was super impressed that they already had their plan B put in place which put me at ease. It was such a beautiful day and I can't thank the staff enough for being so amazing. One of my favorite parts was when all the staff came together on the dance floor and did a dance! Special shout out to Gabrielle, you are a rockstar!

This venue was absolutely amazing. Not only was it beautiful being out on the water but they provided everything in your package so I didn't have the hassle of looking for all the different vendors you need. I was impressed with how nicely everything flowed the day of the wedding and how well the company planed everything. Before the wedding my groom and I were invited to a party on the yacht our wedding would be on so we could get a taste of everything. I couldn't be happier with picking this venue.

Wedding preparations can be daunting, horror stories , sleepless nights and countless items to remember began leaving us anxious early on. After trusting ovation yachts with our big event our stresses literally melted away. Alison and Ashley simplified the whole process with 5 star vendors, a tested and true timeline and a one on one customized approach. As event coordinators, they were exceptional and the day went off without a hitch. Ovation yacht charters saved us a lot of time and left the guests thinking the opposite, not one item was overlooked on the day of and everyone on the boat left feeling special. leftleftfefeelinspecial.special.Wghaven't stopped Gettin

Infinity and Ovation Yacht Charters is the way to go if you want to have a perfect wedding! All of the staff are so professional. The food is absolutely amazing. Besides, who doesn't want to party on a yacht sailing down the Detroit river? The premium vendors that were included in our package (cake, Dj services, flowers) are absolutely amazing and made our day so special! We would recommend IOYC to any one and everyone!

We had our wedding with Infinity/Ovation Yacht Charters last August and it was awesome!!! Our wedding planner was Melanie and she was great! She was readily available whenever I needed to speak with her about anything, especially in the weeks leading up to our wedding. I bounced ideas off her and she always gave me honest feedback. A couple weeks before our wedding we were apprehensive about moving forward with their DJ and she did everything possible to make us feel comfortable for our big day! Britney was our wedding coordinator for the evening and she was awesome! She was so friendly and she definitely made sure everything ran smoothly. Ms. Corey (I believe that’s her name) was super fun and sweet! She went above and beyond to make sure our experience was great! She danced with me and even gave my family treats to take home ;-). All of the IOY staff he night of our wedding were great including Jordan who coordinated our rehearsal (took only 20 minutes). It rained about 45 minutes before our ceremony and the IOY crew made sure not to let any of our guests sit until the chairs were completely dry! They also had some hold the train of my dress so it would get wet. All the vendors were great (except for the DJ service but we were able to hire our own DJ)! Emerald Designs created beautiful floral arrangements for our centerpieces, Baked Impressions was delicious and were awesome, and the food was delicious!!! Throughout the night IOY and the vendors had small yet thoughtful surprises for us . I would definitely recommend IOY to future couples!!!
