The Grand Lady is ideal for couples looking for a nontraditional yet beautiful setting for their special day. There is no more scenic a location than cruising aboard the Grand Lady. Imagine your wedding against the backdrop of the blue sky and waters of the Buffalo River and Lake Erie. It will be a day you and your guests will long remember.
Having shared in the special day of over 250 couples since 1998, our experienced and professional Captain and crew will work with you in planning your wedding, making sure your special day is exactly how you've always envisioned it.
Whether you decide to have your ceremony, your reception, or both on board, the Grand Lady's superior amenities, climate controlled cabins, and beautiful furnishings will offer you and your guests all the comfort of any shore-side facility. The Grand Lady's also perfect for rehearsal dinners, engagement parties, or bridal showers.
For the ultimate enjoyment of you and your guests, we recommend the following capacities for ceremonies and receptions aboard the Grand Lady:
- Ceremonies: 60 for outdoor ceremony; or 80 for indoor ceremony
- Receptions: 70 to seat all guests on main deck; or 88 using both dining areas
Two of our licensed captains are also ordained ministers and are able to perform a civil ceremony on board for you for a fee of $150, or bring your own minister, pastor, or family member along for a more personal or religious ceremony for no additional fee.
