Ryan/Molinaro Wedding, May 2024

I cannot say enough about the amazing day Wendy, Eric, and the rest of the staff provided for us. They go above and beyond to make sure their clients wedding days are perfect. All of our friends and family were amazed at the quality and professionalism of the staff. And the ride in the yacht was pretty awesome too!! Thank you again everyone!! 

Terea Rehearsal Dinner, March 2024

I can’t say enough good things about our rehearsal dinner on the Yacht StarShip.

Taylar, November 2023

We got married on Yacht Starship IV out of Clearwater Beach and our wedding day was absolutely incredible. Everything went so perfect and smooth. Joey, our venue coordinator, was phenomenal down to every detail and keeping things running smoothly. We can’t thank him enough for taking care of us on our day. The other staff and Dj Pharaoh were also incredible. We have heard from family and friends that it was one of the best weddings they have ever been to! We cannot thank them enough for making it so special for us. 

Marczak Wedding, June 2023

We wanted a unique all in one ceremony and reception, we were exploring downtown when we came across yacht starship we looked at each other and thought “how cool would it be to get married on the water”. From the moment we contacted the boat for a meeting it was a amazing experience. We first met with Chris D to talk about the details, guest count, date and our vision once that was in place and contract was signed 3 month out we were contacted by Joey O (our day of coordinator). We scheduled an in person meeting to walk through the yacht and decide seating arrangements and table placements and talk time line. Every time I reached out with a question or concern I had an answer right away. Honestly this takes the stress out of wedding planning they were so helpful with everything. We were able to do a rehearsal the day before on our boat as well as bring on any décor that we would need to have set up & Joey made sure it was done and reflected our vision. Our wedding was Friday, June 16th and was flawless. We are still getting compliments on the amazing food and service by the waitstaff. A huge THANK YOU to Chris D and Joey O for helping us plan & pull off a flawless wedding. Mr. & Mrs. Marczak

    We found Yacht Starship and thankfully they had same day booking availability. It was around $275 for all of us but with dinner, open bar and a beautiful sunset cruise the cost is well worth it.

    This was our third sailing on Yacht Starship. The July 4 Cruise was very disappointing. We were put on a smaller boat with limited fireworks outdoor viewing area.
