We are so glad you chose Landmark Event Co. for your upcoming celebration! We know how fun—and stressful—planning an event can be. We are here to help make the planning process just as great as the day itself. Our dedicated catering and venue coordination team is here to help bring your vision to life! To assist us in preparing for your event, please review the following details and start planning on your own before your first logistics meeting.
The boat is ADA accessible on the first floor, we have a wide ramp leading onto the boat and an ADA accessible bathroom located on the first floor. Upstairs is not ADA accessible but the main wedding action is on the first floor.
We provide a comprehensive range of equipment to ensure your event runs smoothly. This includes everything from tables and chairs to catering equipment. For a detailed list of the equipment we offer, please click here to view our full inventory.
We have two “Skansonia” marked spots available to use anytime for tours, meetings and rehearsals. We are lucky enough to have access to the private lot from Waterfront Construction, this is only available for customers and guests to use during the evenings and weekends. The lot has up to 17 spots and there is plenty of street parking in the area as well.
Unfortunately we do not currently have AC but we do have a total of 6 ceiling fans that keep the air flowing and being right on the water generally keeps it cooler! For those colder months we have heating inside the boat and we have 3 propane outdoor heaters available to rent if you would like to utilize the outside area.
We have an inhouse sound system available to use for background music and you are welcome to plug in a phone/tablet/laptop and use our AUX cable however you would need to provide the adapter (if needed). We also have 1 in house corded microphone available for general announcements or use during the ceremony if not provided by DJ/Band.
We do not have projectors or screens available on site, this would need to be provided, please ask your venue manager/coordinator for our partner AV vendor contacts. projectors and screens will not be operated by any Landmark Event Co. staff.
We do have a rain back up plan (it is Seattle after all!) Incase of rain we can move the ceremony inside on the cocktail hour/dance floor side of the boat. We can usually make this call 3 hours prior to guest arrival so we have enough time to set up the chairs.
We have 1 ADA bathroom and 4 stalls upstairs
Unfortunately we have a strict no open flame policy so only flameless candles are allowed. We have an LED tea light package available to rent in house!
She does not move unfortunately, The MV Skansonia stays permanently docked on Lake Union. She has been out of commission for many years and enjoys her retirement permanently docked on Lake Union enjoying the beautiful Seattle skyline!
Absolutely! We love the doggies at the MV Skansonia and they are welcome to join for photos and the ceremony but we do ask that someone takes them home during cocktail hour before food is served.
Yes and it is complimentary! Ask your venue representative for the network and password!
