Looking for a uniquely memorable party venue for your wedding reception? Boat lovers seeking an excuse to get back out on the water should consider a yacht reception. Not only does a yacht have plenty of space to make room for all of your beloved guests, but it lends to a number of beautiful themes that are sure to wow the crowd and look incredible in the wedding photos. Not sure which theme is right for you? Check out these three ideas.

3 Unbeatable Themes to Incorporate Into Your Yacht Wedding 

1. Beach 

Few things are as relaxing as spending time on a sandy beach, so why not incorporate the same feeling into your wedding? A yacht reception offers views of the perfect scenery to work in a beach theme and will make your guests feel like they’re on a luxurious tropical vacation. Love the idea of a beach wedding on the water, but don’t know how to address the decor? Try using sea glass or seashells in candle votives, or line the perimeter of the dance floor with fine, white sand. 

2. Voyage 

Many say marriage is comparable to embarking on a sea voyage, making a yacht the ideal place to begin your trip with loved ones. A “voyage through life and love” theme is likely something your guests have never seen before and will be the talk of the town for months. If you decide a voyage-themed wedding or reception is right for you and your partner, you may consider incorporating maps or compasses into the setup, noting you and your betrothed would cross the seas for one another. 

3. Nautical 

If you love the idea of hosting a wedding party on a yacht, it’s worth delving deeper into the boat theme and using it in every detail. A nautical theme is easy to play up on a yacht. Choose decor with tones of deep blue and green to reflect the depth of the sea and your love for one another, and use anchors as a way to say your partner’s love keeps you steady.
