Perfect Wedding

Despite planning our wedding from New York and navigating everything virtually, Kristan and Amanda's unwavering support and seamless coordination made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect, creating a relaxed and problem-free environment for us to fully enjoy our day.

The entire staff went above and beyond to accommodate our guests, making everyone feel welcomed and attended to. As the bride and groom, we were relieved of any concerns, thanks to the outstanding care provided by the staff.
The culinary experience was a highlight, with the menu exceeding our expectation. The quality of the food left a lasting impression on our guests, many of whom are still raving about it 2 months after!

The Boathouse at Sunday Park provided a picturesque backdrop, and the ambiance was magical. The combination of the beautiful setting and the coordinators' expertise truly made our wedding day a dream come true. We are immensely grateful for the memories created at this extraordinary venue. Thank you to Kristan, Amanda, and the entire team at the Boathouse for making our wedding an unforgettable celebration of love and joy!

Most Perfect Venue

My wedding at the Boathouse at Sunday Park could not have been more perfect if the Pinterest fairy planned it herself. I can not express the gratitude I feel towards the Boathouse assigned coordinator, Johanna, and the Boathouse staff for the level of customer service and genuine care they took for my husband and me on our wedding day. They made every dream come true and, above that, every member of the wait staff and event team made me feel like I had actual friends running my wedding who genuinely cared about making everything perfect! It never felt like anyone was doing a job because of the graciousness and kindness of all involved - and trust me they were all working their butts.

Walking into the reception, I saw the party of my dreams with all of my plans and designs brought to life. There is not a single thing I would change about the day and I appreciate everything The Boathouse did to make it perfect... Including getting my parents packed up and out of there so fast my dad was in bed snoring before midnight. Bravo.

Breathtaking venue with great service

My day ran so smoothly. It was the best, most perfect day ever. Everyone at The Boathouse went above & beyond to make sure our day was special and ensured that our guests were happy. All of my guests raved about how beautiful the venue is and how great the food was. The staff, the food, the venue, everything...perfection. Amanda and Kristan were my "Day of Coordinators". Amanda was an excellent project manager and was super responsive with all of my questions related to the venue and reception. Kristan was with me on my wedding day and was so calm and organized. She kept the day moving a long with no issues. I absolutely would not change one thing about that day. If you want an absolutely beautiful venue, good food and excellent customer service, look no further than The Boathouse at Sunday Park.
