The deck where the ceremony takes place, with the river as the backdrop.
The covered lower deck, set up for dinner.
The quiet landing dock where the boat moors for dinner.
The boat's own galley, where the hot dishes are prepared.
“We said our vows while the boat quietly cruised the Merwede. The water gliding past made the moment far more special than a venue standing still.”
“Kees timed the route to match our ceremony exactly, so the light was perfect during the vows. You do not see that kind of attention to detail often.”
“The lower deck as a rain fallback turned out to be well thought through: dinner simply continued and nobody missed the outer deck.”
“The galley delivered hot dishes as if we were in an ordinary restaurant, despite being out on the water. Compliments for how well things ran on board.”
“We moored at a quiet landing dock for dinner, far from the usual city noise. Exactly the calm we wanted after a busy ceremony.”
“With 90 guests aboard the boat never felt cramped, and the outer deck gave everyone room for photos while underway.”
