My wedding celebration experience
The Perfect Tampa Venue
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!
The experience was top-notch and we would recommend Yacht StarShip to any couple looking for an easy way to plan a beautiful wedding!
Yacht Starship Tampa
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!

We love the Yacht Starship! Every event, no matter the type or size, is given the utmost attention. There is nothing left to chance, the best food, beautiful sites, wonderful event coordinators, what's not to love?
We are BLOWN AWAY by our experience! The staff was so professional and sweet - class act, five-star service! And this is after they serviced a wedding earlier in the day! And the FOOD! Omgosh we were so pleasantly surprised! We eat a lot of catered food obviously lol and did not expect much for the food - but WOW were we wrong! Everything was DELICIOUS! Our favorites were the homemade salad dressing, prime rib and the creamy tomato soup. And the bread pudding!!!!! My goodness we felt spoiled! We are so very grateful for this experience. We truly had a lovely evening enjoying this experience and of course the beautiful boat ride and scenery. We even made it to the dance floor!
