Michigan Princess Riverboat
About
Michigan Princess Riverboat is a boat wedding venue located on the Grand River in Lansing, Michigan. The classic replica of a 19th-century steamboat is owned by the J & K Steamboat company which has been chartering passengers around Michigan’s rivers and lakes for over four decades. The Victorian-style vessel can provide a unique venue for a wedding ceremony and reception on the water against the beautiful backdrop of the Grand River.
