Reviews for Caliber Yacht Charters
GUEST
This is going to be a mixed review since the coordinator, ceremony, catering and venue were all part of what was offered. We got married on the Cloud 9 IV yacht which was really exceptional. Everyone had a fantastic time, just the fact that we were out on the East and Hudson Rivers enjoying the NY views. The servers and maitre d were great. The person who helped coordinate works with you from the day you look at the yacht as a possible venue all the way through the event itself. They were extremely nice but the responsiveness wasn't great and I found I had to constantly follow up on inquiries which made me a bit nervous. I do have to say that about 10 days prior to the event this did get better. The cocktail hour was excellent. We did a sit down dinner instead of a buffet. The food was of very good quality but we did get feedback form at least 50% of our guests (about a week after the event) and they said their food was cold. If we would have found out about this during the event we would have let the maitre d know and I am confident he would have taken care of the problem. Why none of our guests sent the food back I am not sure. Maybe they were just being polite. They do all of the cooking aboard and this is one of the many reasons we chose this venue, so I am surprised about the temperature of the meals. There were also 3 tables that got their main meals much later than everyone else. I would recommend this venue, just make note of the comments above. If you are a high maintenance person, this or any yacht is not for you. This is for a couple looking for a fun, casual and somewhat easy to plan wedding with yet a bit of elegance at the same time. The captain also performed the ceremony for us aboard the yacht prior to departure which was a nice touch!
