Imagine the world’s most magnificent skyline spreading before your wedding party in all directions. Stars in the night sky stretch endlessly above you, reflecting a million prisms of light on the waters of the majestic Hudson rippling beneath you. As the savory aroma of culinary delights tempts your guests to sit back, relax and raise a toast to your celebration, live music inspired by the occasion sets the perfect mood for an event that will truly be remembered and talked about for years to come.

This is the Spirit Cruise experience. It is a magical journey of cruising, dining and dancing around the tip of Manhattan with all your favorite people in attendance to share one of life’s greatest milestones. And Spirit has three beautiful vessels with three distinctive cruise experiences to help you find the perfect portal for your occasion.

From the sophisticated, gourmet elegance of Bateaux New York (pictured here), to the cosmopolitan chic of the Spirit of New York and the all-out festive fun of the Spirit of New Jersey, there is a Spirit Cruise made for each and every one of your bridal events. Let Spirit’s professional wedding planners help you create the perfect engagement party, bridal luncheon, shower, rehearsal dinner or ultimate wedding and reception on the water. From start to finish, the Spirit wedding team will handle every detail to your complete satisfaction. And whatever the bridal event, you can be sure Spirit Cruises will make it as inspiring as the city of New York itself.

In 2003, Bateaux New York was selected the ultimate wedding reception site by millions of television viewers on NBC’s Today Show.
