Silver Fleet
Thames river cruisers for wedding receptions, from Savoy Pier, London
Silver Fleet runs five river cruisers from its private Savoy Pier in London, hosting wedding receptions from an intimate dinner for 16 to a lunchtime cruise for 400 guests.
Silver Fleet operates river cruisers on the Thames from Savoy Pier on Victoria Embankment in London. The fleet includes the Silver Sturgeon, Silver Barracuda, Silver Dolphin, Silver Bonito and Royal Nore, which allows a reception to be matched to the size of the party, from an intimate autumn dinner for 16 to a lunchtime cruise for 400 guests.
The events team helps plan each element of the reception, including colour themes, cocktails, menus and the wedding cake. Couples can meet the head chef and a wine specialist for a consultation and, if they wish, the company's florist, McQueens. The wedding party can be collected from any central London pier, including the private Savoy Pier, which can be decorated with flags, flowers and ribbons. Legal wedding ceremonies are not currently permitted on board river boats, so a list of recommended riverside venues is available for the ceremony. Four wedding packages are priced per head and cover the main elements of a lunch or dinner reception, with extras such as a photographer, fireworks or Tower Bridge opening.
