Wedding Boat Hire on Sydney Harbour
Exchange vows with the Opera House and Harbour Bridge as your backdrop. A private yacht gives your wedding a setting no venue on land can match: the water, the light, and the people who matter most, all to yourselves.
Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement or a full reception, we’ll match you with the right vessel and take care of the details, so the day feels effortless from the moment you step aboard.
Ceremony, reception or both
Many couples hold the ceremony on deck as the sun lowers over the harbour, then carry straight into dinner, speeches and dancing without anyone needing to move venues. Others come aboard after a ceremony on land for a relaxed reception cruise. Your celebrant is welcome on board, and the captain can plan the route so you’re anchored in a quiet, scenic spot at the moment that matters.

- Intimate weddings and elopements: our small yachts offer a private, personal setting for a handful of guests.
