Using a local chartered cruise as the location for your next big event can save you both time and money. Boat cruises are easy to organize and cost-effective, whether you are celebrating a birthday, having a wedding, or hosting a seminar. Here are a few tips to help you budget for your big event with Empire Cruises in New York City.
Consider the Guest List
Your budget will depend greatly on the number of people you want to invite and the amount of space you will need to accommodate them. Empire Cruises offers different sized vessels and a variety of event packages to accommodate any budget or guest list. If you are looking to plan a more intimate event and are on a tight budget, choose a smaller boat, like the Lucille or Rendezvous. A smaller space and fewer guests will cost less than choosing one of our bigger ships. If you are planning a bigger event, consider one of our beautiful larger vessels, like the Harbor Lights.
Look at What’s Included
The majority of Empire Cruises’ packages are all-inclusive, meaning there are no additional charges for the food, bartender, drinks, or venue. For example, our smallest wedding package includes a five-hour boat ride, food, and drinks for just $89 a person. Our event packages may also include a DJ. Ask what’s included to be sure to get the most for your money.
Don’t Forget the Decorations!
Decorations are not required to make your party cruise beautiful. You could, however, add some themed decorations for events such as weddings, special birthdays, or anniversaries—just remember to include them in your budget! Keep in mind that party favors and decorations don’t need to be expensive or extravagant, especially when you’ve already chosen a gorgeous venue.
Using a boat as the location for your next event is sure to be a big hit with your guests! At Empire Cruises, we can assist in planning your next event on one of our New York City boat cruises. Give us a call at (646) 402-6975 for more information or to ask about our great upcoming deals.
