Unforgettable Weddings on the Water
From intimate gatherings to grand celebrations, Starlite offers flexible wedding experiences designed around your vision. Charter an entire Starlite Dining Yacht or Calypso Tropical Cruise for a private daytime or evening event, creating a one-of-a-kind waterfront celebration for you and your guests.
Prefer to celebrate during one of our regularly scheduled cruises? Wedding events can also be hosted during public cruises, with options to reserve an entire dining deck, a private section for your group, or adjacent tables so your guests can celebrate together while enjoying the full Starlite experience. Our team will work closely with you to create a seamless and memorable celebration on the water.
✨ For couples seeking an elegant dining experience, our Starlite Dining Yachts offer a refined alternative to a traditional banquet facility. From the moment your guests step on board, they’ll be welcomed into a polished setting with waterfront views, attentive service, and a freshly prepared meal served with care. Each guest may choose from a variety of thoughtfully prepared entrées, made in our onboard galley and served by our courteous hospitality team.
🌴 For a more relaxed, tropical celebration, Calypso Tropical Cruises offer a fun, island-inspired setting with beautiful beach vistas, a festive buffet-style meal, and an easygoing atmosphere. It’s ideal for wedding events that feel fun, social, and effortless to enjoy. Calypso cruises also include complimentary beer, wine, rum punch, and soft drinks for your guests.
A Beautifully Planned Celebration from Boarding to Last Dance
From the moment your guests step aboard, your wedding celebration feels distinct, effortless, and unforgettable. Starlite’s beautifully appointed dining areas feature large picture windows with ever-changing panoramic views as you cruise the calm, scenic inland waters of the Tampa Bay area.
Whether you choose a private charter or celebrate during one of our regularly scheduled public cruises, our team will help create a seamless experience for you and your guests.
For weddings hosted during a public cruise, your guests may board before general public boarding, allowing your ceremony to take place in a more private setting. We’ll reserve adjacent tables for your group within one dining level, or, for larger celebrations, you may reserve one of several dining decks with exclusive seating by meeting the required passenger minimums.
Entertainment is included on board, and while our house entertainment is shared with all guests during public cruises, we’ll reserve a special private moment for your First Dance.
For private charters, house entertainment is included, and music selections may be customized to better reflect the style, energy, and atmosphere of your celebration.
