Quick answer
In early 2024 the Gateway Clipper Fleet welcomed couples booked for 2024 and 2025 aboard for a wedding tasting and showcase with local Pittsburgh wedding vendors. Today's weddings are planned around the Premier Wedding Package: $165 per person for 4.5 hours, plus 24% service charge and tax.
Every year we like to give our couples a preview of their big day before they ever walk down the aisle. In early 2024 we welcomed our booked couples for 2024 and 2025 aboard to experience everything the Gateway Clipper Fleet has to offer, from the food to the views.
A tasting and a vendor showcase on the rivers
Alongside the tasting, we invited some of our favorite Pittsburgh wedding vendors on board to show off their products and services. Couples could sample the menu, picture their reception on the dining deck and meet the people who help bring Clipper weddings to life, all in one afternoon.
Planning made simple
We pride ourselves on how easy wedding planning is for our couples. At the time of this showcase we offered three inclusive wedding packages. Today, weddings are built around one all-inclusive option, the Premier Wedding Package: $165 per person for 4.5 hours, plus 24% service charge and tax. It includes a premium open bar, champagne toast, cocktail hour, dinner buffet, DJ, linens, up-lighting and a cruise director. See the full details, boats and add-ons on our Weddings page.
Saturdays from May to October book 12 to 18 months out, so it pays to start early. To check dates or arrange a site visit, email info@gatewayclipper.com or call (412) 355-7965, or send us your details. For more inspiration, see our Princess weddings and our notes on planning your wedding vendors.
