A wonderfully romantic venue for a wedding receptionFloat back in time and enjoy Coniston Water as the wealthy Victorians once did, travelling in style in Gondola’s opulent saloons or relaxing on her open air decks and taking in the spectacular scenery. What better place to celebrate your special occasion than a private cruise with family and friends to make your day truly memorable.

Gondola has a luxurious ambience recreating the atmosphere of a bygone era. The interior of the boat is divided into two saloons reflecting Victorian trains from the Furness Railway: a first class saloon with luxuriously upholstered seating and a ‘third’ class saloon with a rich mahogany ceiling and leather upholstery.

Seating capacityGondola has inside seating capacity for 50 and a total carrying capacity of 86 passengers. When catering is provided, the maximum number of passengers recommended is 50.The central seating in the saloons can be turned into tables for catering - the seating is fixed ‘bench’ seating around the perimeter of the saloons. We recommend a cruise of 1.5 to 2 hrs. The earliest charter time is from 4.45pm.

BrantwoodGondola is not able to hold official wedding ceremonies on board. However, we work closely with Brantwood, the home of John Ruskin on the shores of Coniston Water, which is licensed for weddings. Passengers can embark at Brantwood Jetty either prior to or following the ceremony, for canapes and champagne from Brantwood’s own restaurant. Visit www.brantwood.org.uk or telephone 015394 41396.

CateringTo complement your cruising experience, you can choose a catering package from one of our excellent local caterers. Menus for food and wine can be provided from:

• The Bluebird Café at Coniston Pier: www.bluebirdcafe.co.uk Tel 015394 41649• Steam Bistro, Coniston: www.steambistro.co.uk Tel 015394 41928• Wilfs Outside Catering: www.wilfs-cafe.co.uk Tel 01539 822329

Canapes and sweet light bites, afternoon tea or full buffet menus with on board service are available and can be devised according to your own tastes and dietary requirements. Please note that only cold buffets can be provided. If hot drinks are required, flasks will be made available. We regret that we cannot accept parties who wish to provide their own food but we may be able to work with the wedding venue that is hosting your ceremony.

EntertainmentYou are welcome to arrange your own entertainment on board Gondola, such as a jazz band or string quartet. And, with prior arrangement, if you wish to theme your wedding we can arrange for appropriate bunting to be flown.

Individual requirementsEvery wedding is different. We are happy to discuss your individual requirements and provide a quotation so please get in touch.
