A Nautical Yacht Wedding at Yacht StarShip in Tampa, Florida

Since Becky Arnold and Rob Strawder met on the beach, it only made sense that the pair would plan a nautical wedding filled with navy, white and yellow details. To top it off, the couple made their already memorable day even more unforgettable by choosing a yacht from Yacht StarShip as their wedding venue. Becky and Rob were married on the deck by the ship's captain as their guests watched from white folding chairs. After Becky and Rob said "I do," their family and friends waved yellow and blue streamers for a fun and colorful recessional. The celebration then moved to a private room below deck decorated with sea-inspired details, like wooden sailboats and rope-wrapped white lanterns filled with seashells. Becky, Rob and their guests took a lunch cruise, which allowed them to explore the ship for two and a half hours. Before returning to shore, all enjoyed a two-tier blue and white wedding cake with rope accents as well as anchor-detailed cupcakes in the wedding's color palette.

Starship 2 is one of 4 ships of Yacht Starship Dining Cruises. Starship 1,2, & Yacht Sensation are docked in Tampa and the newest yacht, Yacht Starship 4 sails out of Clearwater Beach. It is an ideal venue for a wedding, one that your guests will not only enjoy the sights, but also the delicious food and the friend staff. The captian is always great on helping the photographer with putting the ship the Downtown Tampa Convention Center/Harbor Island area when it is time for Ceremony or pictures afterwards.
