From First Call
to Final Hand
Exactly how an event unfolds — week by week, milestone by milestone — so you always know where your night stands and what happens next.
Eight Weeks
to Perfection
This is the standard arc — faster timelines are possible, slower ones are common for charters. Your producer owns every date on this list.
Start Your TimelineDiscovery Call
A 20-minute conversation: occasion, guests, budget, dates. You describe the feeling; we describe three ways to build it.
The Proposal
Vessel, format, menu, styling and full costings in a single document. Revise as many times as it takes — most clients approve within two rounds.
Contract & Deposit
25% locks the vessel, crew and date. From this point your producer is reachable seven days a week — the real work begins.
Design Lock
Run-sheet, floor plans, menus and branding approved. Invitation link opens; guests register, dietary needs flow straight to the galley.
Final Briefing
Seating plans, speeches, surprises — every detail walked through on one call. You approve; we execute.
The Countdown
Weather monitored, manifests confirmed, boarding instructions to every guest. Your only job now: tell people what to wear.
Event Day
Load-in at noon, first guests at six, last hand at midnight. Your producer stays until the strike ends — then sends the photo album.
What We Need
From You
Remarkably little — three answers and a signature, and the rest is ours.
The Occasion
What are you celebrating, and what should guests feel when the ship docks? One sentence is enough — it steers everything else.
The Headcount
A range is fine — twenty to sixty, a hundred-odd. Numbers choose the vessel; the vessel chooses everything else.
The Date Window
A fortnight, a month, a season — we will hold dates provisionally while you consult the calendar. Holds are free.

Quick Answers
Can you work with a shorter timeline?
Often, yes — we have produced complete events in three weeks when a vessel was free. Call us before assuming the date is impossible.
Do we meet the crew beforehand?
For charters and salon bookings, yes — a walkthrough aboard is included in the fortnight before your event. Menu tastings are also available on confirmed bookings.
What if we need to postpone?
One free reschedule within twelve months — life happens, dates move. Outside your free reschedule, a modest rebooking fee covers the crew we have already held.
