I was recently the maid of honor at a wedding on The Royal Princess this past May. Rob and Leslie took such great care of my cousin's wedding and made it an extremely special day.
Rob and Leslie were great to work with. They took the time for us to visit the boat and go over everything we needed to including layout of the space, timing of the event, set up, and things such as use of linens and silverware. They were also able to coordinate everything with the decorations, DJ, and cake we had agreed to provide ourselves
When myself, the bride, and mother of the bride arrived on the day of the event, we were greeted by the Matre'd Carol who took us to the beautiful bridal suite and asked if we needed anything such as a beverage while we were getting ready. Carol was amazing the whole day and kept asking the bridal party and groomsmen if we needed anything and had the event running smoothly the whole time.
The set up of the tables were amazing and done just as the bride had hoped for. The linens were spotless and pressed and the silver and glassware were polished. We had also brought our own decorations and they set everything up perfectly to how they had discussed.
The actual event was amazing! Guests were lined up at the dock once it was boarding time and a red carpet was rolled out for them to walk onto the ramp to get into the boat. Everything was timed perfectly and went off without a hitch. I have been a part of weddings before and the coordination and effort made on Rob, Leslie, and Carol's part were not only appreciated but really made the difference. We ate, drank, danced, and enjoyed my cousin and her husband's amazing wedding on the Royal Princess. It was 5 star service in...
Read moreNY Boat Charter created the perfect day for Miranda and me. The team's attentiveness and ability to adapt to our needs and wants was remarkable during the planning phase. The night was executed flawlessly. One might think that having the event on a boat would make accessing the venue difficult, but Rob and Lezlee made it available to us whenever we needed, from the time we picked a date until the big day. They talked us through our various floor plan and menu options, but were very receptive when we wanted things a certain way. Lezlee's ceremony is wonderfully authored and was delivered perfectly. We wrote our own vows and pairing that with Lezlee's ceremony left very few eyes dry in the audience.
Our expectations started off very low for the food quality... thinking... "this is a boat, how good could the food possibly be?" Much to our satisfaction and surprise, the food was the best we've ever had at a wedding venue... and the buffet is the right option. It is a very nice touch having the food brought to your bride&groom table as well.
Our expectations were exceeded with NY Boat Charter. Planning had some minor hiccups, but nothing worth mentioning. The Royal Princess's crew took care of us, took care of our guests, and gave us a lifetime of...
Read moreWe can’t say enough wonderful things about the Royal Princess. Rob and Lezlee truly gave us our dream wedding! The yacht is gorgeous, spacious, yet intimate. We had 75 guests and wherever you are on the yacht you have an incredible view of the nyc skyline. We had our wedding ceremony on the top deck then sailed around New York for a 5 hour reception. The yacht has 3 large floors, the bottom for dining the middle deck has an awesome dancefloor with indoor/outdoor bar set up and a beautiful top deck our guests didn’t want to come down from! The yacht takes you under the Brooklyn bridge and right up next to the statue of liberty, our photos are unreal. Lezlee and Rob are such a pleasure to work with, they take so much pride and joy in their yacht and really want you to have the most incredible wedding and wedding planning experience. You absolutely can not beat the view of NYC skyline during sunset on the top deck of a yacht. If you are looking for a luxurious, memorable and Affordable venue this is by far the best choice. Our guests were blown away by our wedding, it was such an experience our guests will remember forever. I can not thank you enough...
