Testimonials

It’s been a few days since our wedding on The Royal Princess Charter Yacht this past Sunday, October 2nd, but Sean and I continue to hear great feedback from our guests. Everyone has raved about the hors d’œuvres, the main meal, the enthusiasm and professionalism of the staff and crew, and quite simply how much fun our wedding was. To judge from all the people who mentioned it, the candy table you put out was a huge hit. So was the goat cheese and fig spread during the cocktail hour (how did I miss that?!). The music was perfect, with the processional and recessional music coming off just right. I’m glad we went with your recommendation of Langdon for the flowers: everyone remarked how great the arrangements looked. But the one comment I keep hearing again and again is just how fun and friendly and just plain nice the staff were during our cruise. Having attended a fair number of boring weddings myself, it’s nice to know that our guests never wanted our event to end, finding the whole experience unique and fun. My only regret is that it all went so fast. Oh, and that we didn’t eat more of those great hors d’oeuvres.

Thank you so much for making Time Warner Cable’s 2011 Summer Corporate Event such a success.  I have gotten nothing but great feedback from all of the employees. Your staff did such an outstanding job ensuring that this event went without any glitches.  Captain Rob was so amazing in the process of ensuring that our staff felt welcomed!  What a great team you have.

Thank you

For a very long time, we have envisioned what our dream wedding day would look like… On June 26, 2011, our wedding cruise in NYC aboard the Royal Princess met and exceeded any visions we had!

First off, the staff was AMAZING! Not only did they take special care of me and the Groom, they also made each of my guests feel like VIP. They were attentive, friendly and made sure each person aboard the ship was comfortable and taken care of.

Often at weddings, the food is simply “edible”. But I must say, the food not only gets an A+ for presentation but it was also outstanding! Everyone had nothing but compliments for the chef.

We wanted something different for our wedding and we got just that. Our guests were on all 3 levels of the boat and no matter where you looked, there were smiling faces. I don’t think any of our guests sat still for very long because there was so much to see and so many places to go aboard the boat. You could sit at your table, lounge on a leather couch, enjoy the fresh air on the top deck or dance!

For days after the wedding, we received calls from guests raving about the staff, food and overall experience. And each person said it was so special to see New York City the way they did that day. I know that our wedding day not only brought us memories that will last a lifetime, but it also was a wonderful experience for our guests.

Thank you to the Royal Princess for making all of our dreams come true!

Lezlee,
I am still in the clouds over how wonderful the day was. Everything at the Bat Mitzvah was perfect. The food was better than I expected, the staff was lovely, the set- up worked perfectly for the flow of guests throughout the boat.
Everyone was great! I especially want to thank you for putting me in touch with Kathleen—she was amazing. Katie was as sweet as can be, and the male dancer she hired was terrific with the kids. He really knew how to draw them out. It was truly a wonderful event!

The event surpassed my expectations.  I knew it would be a special affair but this party was beyond what I had imagined.  All had a great time.

I loved having a direct line to the owner of the boat.  You don’t find that with most boat/yacht companies, in fact, I searched a while before finding the actual owner of the boat who walked me through every step of the planning process; with patience!  I enjoyed all conversations with Lezlee and loved having her cell phone; it was nice to know she would always answer!  On board, the Maitre D, Katie, was most helpful.  She was great to work with the day of the party as was Captain Rob.  We used him for a few photo opportunities with the Captain’s wheel and it meant the world to both my children that they were able to go and actually drive the boat!  They will NEVER forget that!

One more note, the chef, Anatoli, was terrific too.  He checked with me several times to make sure that I was satisfied with both the amount and the quality of the food.  Sabrina will never forget her communion celebration aboard the Royal Princess! I would love to do my son Jimmy’s communion party aboard the Royal Princess, that will be Spring, 2012!

Dear Lezlee and Capt. Rob

Rob was right.  How can we describe what a wonderful job you both did to make Cathy and Gregg’s and our day so fantastic.  The food displays, dinner, and fabulous desserts were outstanding. We and our guests will be long remembering our wedding boat charter in NYC and even the weather cooperated.  We wish we could have a “do over” it went so fast! Thank you again so much and good luck in the future.  You can use us for references anytime.

Sincerely, Barbara and Jim Melitski – July 11th, 2009

“All of my guests were overwhelmed by the hospitality and service from your staff at our private yacht charter birthday party.  The phone calls have not stopped. They want to send me a thank you for inviting them. Keep doing the Statue of Liberty pause in the tour. Everybody has so many comments on how excited they were.  Make sure you keep the chef. The food was excellent. My guests were truly surprised. They never expected to see our favorites!  You were right about how good your D J would be to.”

A fun filled night, seeing amazing sights of the NY skyline and in good company.

We have booked our annual New York  corporate event boat cruise with NY Boat Charter for many, many years.  Each year, the planning has been taken care of seamlessly, the attention given to the detail and the special requirements of our group has been wonderful.   Each year, even on different boats, we have enjoyed a fabulous night that is memorable by all.  Our group is typically people from Britain, and without exception, they all say, this is the best night they spend in NY.  Watching the NY skyline float by, sipping champagne and eating dinner cannot be topped.

Thank you for such a wonderful night (again!).

The boat was wonderful & the set up great! The food was good & the dj was AWESOME! We had a fabulous time. The weather allowed folks to enjoy the upper deck and just relax and have a good time!

WONDERFUL & PROFESSIONAL & ACCOMODATING

This is our 2^nd year and chances are – we will be back next year!

My fellow co-workers had an amazing time on our corporate event cruise on the Hudson – the boat, the food, the dj – everything was wonderful; the only complaint was that the trip was not longer! I have already recommended NY Boat Charter to other people looking to schedule corporate events.
