Amazing, intimate, and meaningful are just 3 words I use to talk about our wedding and the crew! September 2020, my husband and I hosted our ceremony on The Yacht America. This venue, and it’s crew, create such meaning and connection with eve...

ry part of the experience that you cannot get a typical venue. Raising the sails as brothers and groomsmen, walking down our aisle with an ocean view, and saying I Do with a view of the City we fell in love in, were just 3 high points of our wedding. Do not let the yacht fool you, our ceremony included flower grandmas, a unity ceremony, and even a first dance. This venue is perfect for intimacy topped with amazing views and fresh ocean air. There is ample space to achieve your wedding ceremony dreams. We finished the night with a tray passed champagne toast which made us feel like the most important couple in the world. I cannot say enough praise of this venue, from the crew helping make your event run smoothly, to all the boat has to offer, you will not be disappointed in choosing this venue!
