There is no better pleasure than being on the water, and no finer place to mark a special occasion and make an event an affair to remember.
A Site for Special Occasions
Celebrating an occasion at sea blends the best aspects of many worlds, including those of luxury, adventure and natural beauty. While on board, every moment of a destination birthday party, reunion among friends or special family gathering is infused with serenity and elegance — from intimate dinners on deck to private wine tastings for your group to custom spa treatments and shore excursions. Imagine spending an afternoon snorkeling with your family among the hidden coves of Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands; canyoneering with your closest friends toward the 27 waterfalls of Rio de Damajagua in the Dominican Republic; or hiking with your wedding party through remote, rustic villages in Northern Europe and the Baltics, traipsing through fjords and glaciers just a few miles from the Arctic Circle.
No matter where you set sail to, everyone in your party will find something to enjoy, revel in, remember and celebrate — both on board and ashore.
Start the Journey of Your Life Together
There is nothing more romantic than the sun shining down on a tranquil sea and being on the water is the perfect setting for celebrating an engagement, honeymoon, anniversary or romantic getaway for no reason other than the joy of being together.
You already have the blue sea all around you, so you’ll only need to borrow something to fashion a traditional wedding ceremony — from small, intimate nuptials to larger, sumptuous ones that take over the whole yacht.
But perhaps the most romantic thing you can do at sea is get married. You already have the blue sea all around you, so you’ll only need to borrow something to fashion a traditional wedding ceremony — from small, intimate nuptials to larger, sumptuous ones that take over the whole yacht. And with the help of The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s at-the-ready event planners, florists and Michelin-inspired meals with menus planned by some of the world’s top chefs, there is nothing you can plan on land that you can’t have at sea. Plus, the yacht’s captain can serve as your wedding officiant.
After the festivities, you and your spouse — or your entire party — can enjoy the rest of the voyage and all the onshore excursions and activities that you’ll find, or create, in your chosen destinations, like wine-tasting throughout the storied vineyards of Bordeaux in France; hiking among waterfalls in Ísafjörður in Iceland, one of the most dramatic landscapes in the world; immersing yourselves in geothermal baths in Japan; or climbing fairytale towers, turrets and gables in Ålesund, Norway.
However you choose to celebrate your once-in-a-lifetime romantic occasion, you can marry all of these at-sea accouterments with storybook locations and breathtaking views as the backdrop, creating an unforgettable collection of memories.

When we experience our life’s greatest moments, our favorite people are usually by our side. Add a superyacht as the setting for such an occasion and you have a venue where every moment feels like a celebration. Whether marking a special birthday, milestone anniversary or even exchanging vows — for the first time or renewing the originals — a celebration at sea provides a place for unforgettable memories amid stunning landscapes, spectacular vistas and remote island hideaways.
