Virginia V Steamship

This was our most extravagant wedding expense and was 100% worth it. We had our ceremony and reception on the ship, which included a 3-hour cruise of Lakes Union and Washington. The Captain and the coordinators were fantastic, especially Kim and Lindsey who answered all of our questions and were super accommodating to let us and our vendors visit the ship weeks before the wedding. The only thing that was a pain was that after we signed the contract, they changed their policy on beverages and now you have to use their bartender. That was fine, and in fact a cost savings, but we weren’t informed until one week before. Also, the bartender doesn’t have Champagne Flutes which was a bit of an-hour-before-the-ship-left-the-dock crisis. But our caterer came through.

This venue was great, tricky but worked out in the end.
Such a great location you don't need much for decor, etc...
It was tricky dealing with the different floors of the boat and trying to get everyone in one space, but everyone loved it. Especially the kids and all granparents that are so into boats. I recommend it if you are a water nut like us!
