Preparing for your first-ever yacht charter can be exciting and scary for beginners. After all, some of Hollywood’s hottest movies feature the world’s most beautiful people sailing on yachts for some of the most exotic vacations. This can make yacht charters seem daunting to the rest of us! Fortunately, these five fool-proof tips from Anita Dee Yacht Charters on how to plan a yacht party will help you get ready for the perfect charter. And best of all, there’s no need to break the bank.
Start Planning
Whether you’re hoping to charter the yacht of your dreams for a wedding, a business party, or a Sweet 16, planning in advance is key. Luxury charters tend to fill their calendars very quickly. The longer you wait, the less likely you are to book your preferred event date. Even if you don’t have an exact date for your yacht adventure, contact us at (312) 379-3191 when you have a general idea for your preferred month. We can help you find a date and the ideal vessel for your special day.
Planning ahead will also help your family and friends, as they’ll block out their time to accommodate you and your event. Finally, advanced planning will make it easier to change the date, if necessary, in case of a family emergency or an unusual weather event that necessitates cancellation.
Book the Right Yacht for Your Event
Not every yacht is right for every occasion. Our smaller yacht is right for you if your event is a small, intimate affair. On the other hand, our larger yacht is ideal for corporate gatherings and large-scale events. Regardless of your needs, Anita Dee Yacht Charters has the perfect ship. You and your guests will always feel comfortable on our yachts.
Before booking a yacht, it’s essential to factor in other things like budget, timing, date, and theme. A corporate event, for example, will have a much different theme than a wedding or a Sweet 16 party and require a different type of ambiance and dress code.
If all of this sounds confusing, it’s okay – you’re not alone, and that’s what we’re here for! Talk to us, and we can find the right match for you.
Pay Attention to the Details
Regardless of the nature of your event, the devil is in the details. Everything from the food, décor, and music must be just right. Moreover, you’ll need to get everything in order before you sail away, as changes can’t be made once your ship is in motion.
Inevitably, you’ll overlook one or two details on your first yacht charter go-round. You may even outright forget things that a more seasoned yacht party planner will remember. So, let us help you get it right the first time! Remember, your yacht charter is designed for your and your guests’ needs. Every element of the event has your signature – and we’re here to ensure you’re presented in the best possible light. We’re happy to entertain and accommodate all reasonable requests.
Pack Appropriately
Your yacht charter will undoubtedly have some fashion requirements based on your theme, weather, and preferences. Remember, you will set the tone for the rest of the party. Be sure to make the dress code clear to all your guests and uphold it yourself.
Feel free to ask if you need clarification on what gear is appropriate for a yacht party. Our team of experts will guide you every step of the way. Remember to take a spare sweater or wrap, as the weather can suddenly change while you’re on the ship, especially at night – and you don’t want to be too cold!
Have Fun!
Above all else, remember that a yacht party is all about having fun. It’s normal to feel stressed out on a “special day,” but don’t let the minor details – or your inexperience on a yacht – cloud your happy feelings. Instead, take it all in and make memories that will last a lifetime.
