From caterers to florists to photographers to organizing things onboard the schooner, we can help you put together a unique wedding. Since her launch in June of 1997, the Schooner Lannon has been the stage for engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, wedding ceremonies, post wedding brunches, anniversary celebrations and lots more. The Lannon provides a most unusual stage for your celebration.
We are happy to report that we have had numerous engagements on the Lannon. In each case, it was a great surprise and they were happy to say yes! Keep it in mind: The Lannon is a very romantic place to pop the question.

What’s Included
A private charter includes the exclusive use of the vessel, captain, crew and someone to serve your drinks. Food and beverages are additional. You will have the boat to yourselves. There will be no other passengers other than your group. Group size is limited to 49.
Catering
Your menu can be as simple or as lavish as you like. We can even arrange and serve a lobsterbake while we anchor in a quiet cove in the harbor. Or, how about “clam chowda and a fresh lobsta roll?” We also have lots to choose from off of our À la carte catering menu, all provided by the Gloucester House Restaurant. You can use our caterer or your own. The menu selection is entirely up to you.
Alcohol
We have a liquor license, so you cannot bring your own alcohol onboard. We offer water, soft drinks, beer, ale, wine, prosecco, sparkling rosé, rum punch, and an upgraded wine list.
