The Yacht
If you own a yacht and Lighthouse Point Yacht Club is your home port, you are ready to begin planning your impressive yacht party. If you don’t yet own your own yacht, you can still have a yacht party and impress your friends and family with an event they’ll never forget. Of course, you’ll need to find the yacht. Yes, you can rent a yacht for your celebration from any number of providers in South Florida. You’ll need to decide whether you want to go modern or vintage which will go a long way to create the atmosphere and provide the backdrop for your party guests. Keep in mind, yachts make the perfect party venue and allows you to choose a unique location for your event.
The Location
As previously mentioned, planning your party on a yacht opens the door of opportunity for any number of locations, whether at sea or in port, you gather your guests and moor where you like for the party. Always consider your guest list and whether they would prefer to be sailing into the sunset during the party or if a scenic port would make the party more enjoyable. While choosing your location, you will also want to consider the amenities you’ll be providing – catered foods, beverages, and entertainment, and the number of provisions your yacht can handle if at sea.
The Guest List and Dress Code
Given that your party will be aboard a yacht, your guest list will be somewhat limited considering the staff aboard. Choose your guests with care, selecting those who already know one another and who will enjoy one another’s company. Once your guests are selected, you will prepare your invitations, telling them the party details including the dress code. You want your guests to be comfortable and confident, and selecting a dress code and following it yourself will ensure everyone is appropriately dressed and has an enjoyable evening.
Set a Theme
While a theme isn’t necessary, having a theme based on the time of year (New Year, Christmas, Independence Day) can make your event more fun and entertaining. It can also help determine the dress code, the food and beverages you’ll be serving, and your décor.
The Menu
The guests at your yacht party will expect a luxurious menu as well as decadent cocktails to make the celebration complete. This means working with your catering team to craft a menu for your event that considers the limitations of being aboard the yacht.
