Rebecca was so easy to work with through the whole process and made planning just so much more enjoyable. Our day was wonderful! We had our ceremony on the top deck and there was plenty of shade and seating. The oyster man was a hit and the most sought-after person during the cocktail hour. We had an absolute blast at the reception! Our Flyers themed cake was awesome! The food was great and the service was top notch. The staff went above and beyond all day; they were truly fabulous! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

I cannot recommend the team with the Gateway Clipper more highly. A "one stop shop," the professionalism of the staff took my breath away. Guests didn't have to coordinate transport between locations, nor did they have to find their own entertainment during photos. I chose to have the ceremony and reception all aboard the ship - so once boarded, everyone had options of activities against a backdrop of the city skyline. Those from out of town were in awe, and those living locally remarked on how much fun it was to see the city from so many new angles. My contacts (Hannah!) offered a tasting early in the year for all questions to be answered, and were in constant accessible communication up to the day. I was lucky enough to have the most beautiful summer weather, but could rest easy knowing there were rain contingencies. I marveled at how full the boat felt - a whole cruise full of my favorite people. I could move between tables, to the dance floor, the second floor where the cookie table and photo booth were (highly recommend), to the rooftop deck where you could catch your breath with a cocktail. The wait staff were masters of invisibility and efficiency. Shauna, the coordinator, and Charles, the DJ, orchestrated every moment. Since the date, my guests have done nothing but remark on how much fun they had. Our date coincided with a Pitt Game and a Steelers Game the following day. Yet, it felt as though the whole river was our own. Your photographer will love all the unique opportunities to capture the lighting from golden hour, to sunset, to the night stars. I will take every opportunity to rave about this experience!

When I tell you, the staff was exceptional. My wife had left the wedding certificate at our house which was 25 minutes away and she only had 15 minutes to get to the board before it took off, the captain of the boat waited the extra 10minutes. Because of him my day was amazing we got married , laugh and enjoyed the Cruise. thank you so much.
