Why Choose City Cruises for Your Boston Wedding-Related Event
In a city like Boston, picturesque waterfront views are an enviable addition to any wedding event. A floating venue serves as the ideal choice for hosting. Compared to traditional settings, it offers the unique experience of being immersed in scenic surroundings and inherently enhances celebratory vibes and good times (not to mention photo ops and videos). With this picture-perfect backdrop, couples and their guests will be surrounded by beauty as they make memories to treasure forever.

Types of Wedding-Related Events with City Cruises
Now that you know floating venues are a top choice for wedding-related events in Boston, let’s dive into what we offer. You’ll discover plenty on our Boston Wedding Events page—starting with engagement parties. For this special soiree debuting the couple as being betrothed, a cruise party combines a romantic ambiance with a celebratory atmosphere—especially when the event is a sunset sail. With bridal showers, daytime gatherings can be an intimate and stylish event that features customized and personalized décor and themes. Meanwhile, rehearsal dinners become a different meal when hosted on the water. Once the practice run is done, brides, grooms, families, and friends can sit back, relax, and savor exceptional cuisine as the sun goes down and the stars light the sky. Wedding ceremonies and receptions are also designed with memories in mind since hosting the main event on board can range from intimate to grand, indoors or out, with numerous amenities to enjoy stunning views. Last but not least are post-wedding brunches. Once the big day is over, these events mark the perfect time to unwind from months of planning (and hours of celebrating) in a charming, leisurely way while showcasing scenic Boston Harbor views.

One of the most exciting days in any couple’s relationship is getting engaged, and once they do, celebrating the big news with an event to mark the occasion is definitely in order. Bringing friends and families together in a fun, festive way helps usher in the wedding experience in the best way possible. No average event will do, especially when you’re hosting an engagement party in Boston. To make the most of the city’s beautiful sights, booking a boat on the water is a no-brainer—yet not just any vessel will do. City Cruises is the ideal option for couples who want a unique and memorable choice, as we offer top-notch amenities and packages, stunning city views, and a seamless planning process from booking to boarding.
