The open deck overlooking the historic harbour.
The covered lower deck, set up for dinner and the party.
The on-board bar, staffed by the crew themselves.
The mooring spot among the historic warehouses of the Wolwevershaven.
“We held the ceremony on the upper deck overlooking the harbour, and as soon as the sky turned grey everyone moved downstairs without the party feeling interrupted. Corina had clearly run that scenario before.”
“The boat just stays moored at the quay, so no seasickness worries or a schedule built around the tide. With 95 guests the lower deck was exactly full enough without feeling crowded.”
“Our own caterer worked through the fixed partner on shore, which I expected to be complicated beforehand but in practice just ran smoothly. The food arrived hot.”
“Corina Bakker replied within a day to our first email and stayed just as quick throughout the whole planning process. The on-board sound system was more than enough for our DJ.”
“The crew staffs the bar themselves, which set a pleasant, informal tone for the whole evening. None of them ever seemed rushed, even once it got busy.”
“We had our civil ceremony on the upper deck before sunset, and the warehouses in the background gave exactly the Dordrecht atmosphere we were looking for.”
