Q + A
The reception is on a yacht? Explain this please.
Our wedding ceremony will be held at 6pm in the marina next to the Ovation yacht. After the ceremony is complete, our guests will be invited to board the yacht for cocktail hour + reception.
The yacht will depart for an evening cruise at 7pm, returning to the marina at 11pm.
Is the yacht actually going to cruise on the water?
Yes! Barring any storms, the yacht will depart the marina at 7pm and return at 11pm. There are no stops during the cruise. Bathrooms, food, drink, and fun are all onboard the yacht :)
Can I leave the reception early?
Our reception is on a yacht. We will be departing from the dock in Saint Clair Shores at 7pm and returning at 11pm. If you choose to join us for the reception, you will be able to disembark when we return at 11pm.
Can I arrive late to the reception?
We understand the logistics of a Friday wedding can be difficult. There is no need to attend the ceremony at 6pm, however, the yacht WILL DEPART AT 7pm whether you are onboard or not. Please ensure you are parked and on the yacht by then if you wish to attend the reception.
What is the parking situation? Can I leave my car parked overnight at the marina?
There will be a valet to park cars at the marina before and after the ceremony. You are able to leave your car parked overnight at the marina but please be sure to grab your keys from the valet before departing for the night.
You will need to get your car by 11am Saturday morning.
Where is the room block and will transportation be provided to the hotel?
We will have a room block at the Westin Book Cadillac in Downtown Detroit. Transportation will be provided from the hotel to the boat and back to the hotel at the end of the night. The room block pricing will expire on June 11th so please make your reservations by then.
Can I take the transportation provided from the hotel to the marina if I'm not staying in the room block?
Yes! We are happy to include anyone who is interested in transportation from Downtown Detroit to the marina and back. Please be sure to include your interest in transportation during the RSVP process.
Can I bring my kids or a plus one?
Unfortunately due to venue capacity, we are unable to accommodate any guests beyond those listed on your invite.
I have a question that’s not covered here.
Reach out to Jackie or Drew. We are happy to help!
