~ Everything was amazing! My wedding was just as I dreamed of ~

 

~ We had the most wonderful experience with flagship, and all of your staff was amazing! Looking forward to hopefully planning another event with you in the future! Thank you! ~

 

~ We had an amazing experience on the California Spirit. The staff were great, the boat was beautiful and the food was excellent. Scot was unbelievable in his communication and helpfulness for the entire time leading up to the wedding. I enjoyed working with him so much and could always rely on him to get me the answers I needed promptly. Scot is an huge asset to your company! So happy that we chose to have our wedding on the California Spirit! ~

 

~ Margie Wilson, was phenomenal. She kept in contact with me and walked me through all the steps (for over a year) to planing my wedding reception on the California Princess. She is an organized, professional, and friendly person - all of her positive qualities helped keep my anxiety and stress to a minimum. My day of coordinators, Chrissy and Heather, made sure my wedding reception went by as smooth as possible. They kept an eye on all of the details and fulfilled all of my requests. They definitely exceeded my expectations. Jonah was an outstanding server; he personally attended to my and my husband's table. He even checked on us as we were mingling on different decks to make sure we were comfortable or needed anything. The rest of the servers and bartenders impressed my guests - they had nothing but good things to say during and after the event. Needless to say, my husband and I are greatly impressed by Flagship Cruises & Events; we would recommend this company to anyone looking to throw a 5 star event. ~

 

~ I would not have changed anything about our wedding cruise. It was a spectacular event and the Flagship staff was excellent and very attentive. I am extremely happy with my choice to have my wedding and reception with Flagship cruises. ~

 

~ Everything was impeccable. The staff sevice was amazing! Everyones need was met. The way that they took care of our guests and us was amazing. We loved it all. The food was fabulous! From our first meeting with Margie to the last email, she was the best. She was so helpful and patient. She is what a sales person should be,she was no pressure. This was what sold us on Flagship. From the first meeting with Margie to when we walked off the ship the night of our wedding with Chrissy, our wedding day was everything we dreamed of. We can only thank you for this wonderful experience. Thanks and you can count on us to tell everyone to have their events on a Flagship Cruise! ~
