A unique and special ‘floating’ wedding experience!

Right now, although we may be buttoning down the hatches as we face some pretty inclement weather, many brides-to-be, are already planning a beautiful Spring or Summer wedding. It seems, however, like all the usual venue choices are pretty much the same.

Well, imagine a unique and special wedding experience – one that you’ll never forget as you say your ‘I do’s’ literally floating, not on air, but on water! This is no ordinary water though. You are on a glorious, luxury yacht in one of the world’s most iconic tourist spots, the V&A Waterfront in the shadow of magnificent Table Mountain. Yes, you are tying the knot at a rate of knots in the city of dreams, Cape Town, on The Tigger 2 Royale – a unique and special floating wedding experience!

Versatile Wedding Experiences Aboard Tigger 2 Charters

As much as it may feel like you would be limited in such a setting, the reality is that on Tigger 2 you have many options from which to choose for your special day, from small, intimate affairs, to lavish larger celebrations with plenty of add-ons. We cater for both the cost-conscious and the extravagant, and we accommodate same-sex weddings with specialised ministers.

We have hosted many wedding ceremonies consisting of only the wedding couple and the minister, so this is a popular choice for those visiting from abroad, or those who would rather not share the moment, but make it as intimate as possible.

For those who want more elaborate affairs, shared with family and friends, Tigger 2 Charters can accommodate a maximum of 65 guests for the buffet and canape menu – or up to 40 guests for a plated dinner.

Customisable Wedding Packages for Every Budget on Tigger 2 Charters

For the thrifty, on a tighter budget, this special experience is not beyond your grasp and, as previously stated, we can offer a basic charter that consists of only the vessel hire and an arranged marriage officer. Take it from us, the ambience and the unique experience are still just as special and unforgettable.

For those with a more elaborate budget, we have a more extensive charter that includes all (and more) of the following:

  • Bridal bouquet and buttonhole for the groom
  • Floral arrangements
  • A selection of plated or buffet-style menus
  • A selection of canapés platters
  • A selection of wedding cakes
  • Hair and make-up stylists
  • Photographer
  • Videographer
  • Bridal Car
  • Theme Decor
  • Sunset Wedding Ceremonies
  • Professional DJ etc.
