Wedding

A romantic and beautiful way to celebrate a wedding is aboard one of the decadent and luxurious Chicago yacht charters. The reflection of the windy city's twinkling lights around you as you glide effortlessly across the water is a magical experience. The music across the wide open space resonates from shore to shore and you feel as if the whole world is there just for this moment. Receptions on the sea expanse is a great way to distance your reception from the noise and hubbub of the busy city and give you some personal space. In addition, you can find many Chicago yacht charters that are equivalent in price range to that of any reception hall. Some even provide firework services to add even more character and entertainment to your wedding. Find the wedding reception of your dreams on deck of a Chicago cruise ship.

Figuring out how many guests you're expecting is necessary before choosing a yacht for obvious reasons. Yacht and cruise ship size vary from boat to boat, and even the larger ships still have a passenger limit to which they accommodate. They also differ in style and décor, and you should try to schedule a tour of the ship before reserving. Some yachts have more of a modern theme while others have Victorian décor. The variety is endless. Keep in mind that website pictures make the ship look larger than it actually is. You don't want your taller guests ducking every time they stand up! You can have guests seated on most deck areas but you'll also need a space for the dance floor, band or DJ, and the bar. The ship will most likely already designate a certain spot for each reception detail, so go over the layout with them so that you get a better idea of what it's all going to look like in the end.

The beauty of having your wedding reception on the high sea is that there's nothing to obstruct your view from the horizon. If you have your guests board an hour before sunset they'll be able to enjoy the brilliant colors of the night sky as it changes from pink to red to orange. The natural beauty of the Chicago city and sea is enough to make the reception a wonderful and memorable experience. There are many private yacht charters in Chicago and each one offers there own special amenities and accommodations. Do a lot of research before settling on one. If you're not more than completely satisfied, keep looking.

The cuisine on most yachts is pretty tasty and usually provided. If they do provide their own menu, be sure to look this over and get a sampling of their food. You don't want guests leaning over the railing all night long. And keep in mind that not everyone will want to eat seafood, which tends to be a popular main dish on most cruise ships. Be considerate to your guests as you plan this semi-aquatic wedding. If you know that many of your guests have a tendency towards seasickness, then you may need to reconsider reception location. If this is out of the question, be sure to send some sea-sick pills along with your wedding invitations!
