The perfect beach and boat venue! Cheap too!!!

We had a great time with Weddings on the water and the Sunset Watersports team! They were extremely professional and I hosted my wedding and receptions with them for around 50 guests, food and drinks included for under $6,000 in Key West.

Vow renewal done easy!

My husband and I did a little courthouse ceremony when we were 21 and 22. It was where we were in our lives at the time, but we've always regretted not doing the reception to celebrate with friends and family. We were looking for something with as many options included as possible since we knew we didn't want to do it in our little hometown in FL. I googled Key West weddings on a whim and I'm so glad I did! Working with Marisa was a breeeeeeze! We get a DJ, open well bar, and tropical buffet INCLUDED! Oh, and did I mention it was on a catamaran?! We are SO excited for this night and it's still two years away! Thank you for helping us plan the vow renewal and reception of our dreams!

Great Vendor

Great vendor to work with and excellent response time. I have been working with Marisa from afar for my destination wedding and she has been so helpful and professional during my wedding planning process. Honest answers and super helpful with things even outside of her job description.

Beautiful Key West Wedding

I knew we wanted to get married in Key West. We love the vibe and feel of island. We were looking for companies to help us with our beach wedding and came across weddingsonthewaterkeywest.com. They answered all of questions and we were able to add the things that were important to us to our ceremony. We had planned on having our wedding reception at one of our favorite restaurants. However, after of initial contact with the company, they told us about their boat receptions. We decided that would a perfect ending to our beach wedding since we spend time on the water when we visit. The beach wedding was beautiful and exactly what we wanted. The boat reception exceeded our expectations. The Party Cat boat reception was so much fun and our guests were blown away by the food, crew and DJ. Even better the boat reception cost less than the restaurant would have used, allowing us to spend more on the other aspects involved in a our special day. Thanks Weddingsonthewaterkeywest.com and Sunset Watersports for excellent service and making our day memorable.

Wedding and Reception on Party Cat

From beginning to end our wedding and reception on the Party Cat was a success! Our parents and guests were impressed by the quality of food and overall spacious feel of the boat. We had 62 guests attend the boat wedding and reception and no detail was missed. Some of our guests were worried about getting sea sick since it was windy that day but the boat ride was smooth and no one had any issues at all. Thanks to the staff at Sunset Watersports and the fabulous crew on the boat for making our day the best day ever!

Welcome Party for Wedding Guests

We did a sunset cruise on the Party Cat as a welcome party for our wedding guests. It was absolutely the perfect way to start our wedding weekend. The crew was friendly and very knowledgeable. The beer, wine, champagne & other cocktails flowed freely and
the dinner was delicious as well. The DJ played the songs from the list we provided and we danced the whole time. Beautiful views of the sunset and the harbor were enjoyed by all. We would highly recommend weddingsonthewaterkeywest.com and Sunset Watersports for your welcome party or wedding reception.

Perfect Wedding Day!

Can not say enough good things about Weddingsonthewaterkeywest.com. From the initial contact to the final day, they were on top of everything. We had a beach wedding followed by a wedding reception on the Party Cat. With 2 different locations were we worried how it would flow but the whole day went smooth. Our guests were treated like royalty and we danced the night away cruising on the ocean. We spend hours looking for the right company in Key West, not only did we find it, the price was reasonable compared to some of the venues we researched. If you are getting married in Key West, save some time and just go to weddingsonthewaterkeywest.com. Thanks again for making our day memorable! Megan

Happiest Day of My Life

Weddings on the Water made my wedding the happiest day of my life. From start to finish they were by far the most considerate and supportive company I dealt with. They went above and beyond all of my expectations with all the planning. The day of the event went super smooth because of their expertise. I can't say enough nice about this company I have 6 friends planning their weddings in the next few months and I have recommending that they all use Weddings on the Water
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
