If you are looking for an elevated, unique wedding experience at a reasonable price point look no further than Yacht StarShip. We truly could not have asked for a better wedding day. Our sailing aboard the YSS II went so smoothly thanks to the incredible team. Eric and Wendy were amazing to work with from start to finish for planning. We did a mix of traditional and nonconventional things and everything we wanted was accommodated. We had very little stress about the venue/event itself side of things because of the fantastic team. I want to specifically shout out the bartenders, DJ, servers, captains, and everyone on board for our wedding because WOW. I have never been to or hosted an event with such kind, attentive and helpful staff. The food is also FANTASTIC! There is a wide variety of menus and all of our guests raved about the quality of the food. My wife and I will be YSS fans and customers forever because of how happy we were with our entire wedding experience. If you needed a sign to book here for your wedding, THIS IS IT!

I cannot recommend the Yacht Starship Tampa enough! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely flawless. Wendy in sales made our booking effortless, guiding us every step of the way with professionalism and a friendly touch. Eric, the wedding planner, was truly exceptional—he didn’t miss a single detail and made our dream wedding come alive in ways we couldn’t have imagined. The food was outstanding, with every dish perfectly prepared and beautifully presented. And the DJ kept the energy high all night, making sure the music flowed seamlessly and everyone stayed on the dance floor.
From the impeccable service to the unforgettable atmosphere, Yacht Starship Tampa exceeded every expectation. It was a magical experience we will cherish forever!

Wendy, Joey, and the entire staff was unbelievably helpful, knowledgeable, and understanding to our needs. Yacht Starship also offers everything you need for your event, so we did not have to shop for additional vendors. I highly recommend Yacht Starship, as our event went perfect, and I have only had top tier experiences on my many cruises with them. I will be a lifelong customer!

The Yacht StarShip fulfilled all of our wedding dreams. We wanted a unique venue that highlighted why we love Tampa for all of our out of town guests. Being on the water was the perfect way to show off the city.
The entire process was streamlined and stress free all the way from the beginning of securing the charter, booking the vendors, setting the menu, planning the details to the actual day that was beautifully organized by our wedding planner Joey.
They made it easy by including everything in the charter contract and upfront about the costs of add on details. There were no surprises or last minute fees.
All of our guests could not stop raving about their experience, especially how friendly and attentive the staff was. The food was amazing and the DJ kept the party going the whole night. We wouldn't change a thing!

My husband and I were married on November 22, 2025 aboard the Yacht StarShip II, and from start to finish, our experience with Yacht StarShip was wonderful.

 We worked with Wendy during the planning process who  was incredibly kind, accommodating, and patient. She took the time to meet with us and speak over the phone on multiple occasions, answered all of our questions, toured us through the ships, and walked us through the contract details thoroughly. We always felt supported and informed.

Leading up to the wedding, our coordinator Eric was amazing. He was organized, detail-oriented, and incredibly thoughtful with his questions, which gave us so much confidence that we were in great hands.

 Our wedding day was even smoother and more beautiful than I could have imagined. Eric and the rest of the staff truly catered to us and guided us through every part of the day—we didn’t have to lift a finger. Months later, our guests still talk about the delicious food, the beauty of the venue, and how well-planned the entire day felt.

 The captain and crew were friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the event. A special shout-out to our captain, who graciously gave my grandfather his hat to wear. My grandfather has skin cancer on his head and had forgotten his own hat, and the captain didn’t hesitate to help. My grandfather was absolutely over the moon by this thoughtful gesture.

 We can’t say enough great things and would highly recommend Yacht StarShip to any couple looking for an affordable, beautiful, and seamless wedding experience.

Amazing! The boat, the food and most of all the staff! It was so effortless and enjoyable! 

This was absolutely worth it, from making sure all of my guess stayed together and received all the reservation promptly, the space was beautiful and the service that my guess received was top notch, wendy and Jo made this day memorable, they were so quick to respond, friendly and attentive. I've already refered friends and family members to celebrate their special day at the starship. Thank you so much for everything we are beyond satisfied.

Our wedding on Yacht StarShip was perfect! From the very first tour with Wendy during planning to the warm chocolate chip cookies for our guests at the end of our reception - we enjoyed every second!

We brought all of our decor to the rehearsal and the staff did our entire setup, letting us have a stress-free night before the wedding. Everything was exactly as we had pictured it when we showed up on wedding day and we didn’t have to worry about any details!

The captain led a beautiful service, the dining experience was wonderful, food was delicious, and the staff was attentive and fun-loving!

Our wedding aboard Yacht StarShip Tampa was even better than we could have ever expected or imagined. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was seamless and stress-free. We are so incredibly thankful for the entire team who made our day unforgettable.

A special thank you to Joey, our amazing wedding coordinator, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. He kept everything organized, calm, and fun—which made all the difference for us.

It rained at the beginning of the evening, but the boat was so smooth you’d hardly even know it. Thankfully, the rain stopped just in time for our ceremony—and as if it couldn’t get more magical, we were greeted with a rainbow right before we said our vows. It was absolutely surreal and something we’ll remember for the rest of our lives.

From the incredible service to the delicious food, to the kind and attentive staff, everything was top-tier. Our guests are still messaging us raving about the food, the views, and how much fun they had.

Yacht StarShip gave us a one-of-a-kind experience that we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a unique and unforgettable wedding venue, this is it. Thank you again to everyone who made our day so special!
