Spring is in the Air!

Spring is in the air and warm weather is upon us, not to mention the beautiful blooming of flowers and trees. Our clients have been inspired by the season and have been asking us about color schemes for their spring events, so we thought we’d give our opinion on some great color palettes that will reflect on sunnier days and compliment any event.

When we think of spring, we think of yellows, bursts of orange, pastel purples and pinks, lively greens, and turquoise hues. If you are looking for a refreshing, energizing feeling for your event, bright and sunny yellows are for you. If you are looking for something soft and sweet, especially for sweet 16s, colors like pink and purple will emphasize the spring scenery and add an elegant touch to your event. For those looking to highlight a cool and casual atmosphere, try a nautical or nature-filled theme with blues and greens for a calm and relaxing experience.

Yes, we have spring fever here at Skyline Cruises.  It’s funny how the change of seasons can have such great colors that go along with it!

New Event Planner Onboard!!!

Simone Vega here (virtual wave) and I would like to introduce myself as the new Event Coordinator & Sales Representative of Skyline Cruises. I am fully enjoying helping others plan their special event aboard our awesome ship The Skyline Princess. Maybe it’s because of my background in Event Planning for the past 7 years but I love anything event related! Give me a dinner party for 20 and I will make it an UNFORGETTABLE dinner party for 20. With that being said, I am happy to be here and I look forward to working with some AMAZING clients to help make their event a success! So if you are planning a party, and not sure where to begin, head on over to the Skyline Princess and let’s get started!

Going Out With A ...Cruise!

Now that the year is coming to a close, we hope that all of you have enjoyed our cruises this month and are looking forward to our last big thing for 2011 – that’s right, our New Year’s Eve Gala Fireworks dinner cruise! What’s so great about this cruise, you ask? Well, just about everything, as a matter of fact! Our New Year’s Eve cruise is as awesome as its extra long name suggests, and I’ll prove it to you by giving you an idea of all the wonderful things in store for you should you choose to go on this cruise.

First of all, you get to hitch a ride on our warm and newly decorated-for-the-holidays luxury motor yacht and party boat, the Skyline Princess – to which, I might add, standing with a crowd of strangers in cold weather is no comparison! Next, as always, the cruise leaves out of the World’s Fair Marina and sails around to the Statue of Liberty and back, so it’s filled with all the usual Manhattan skyline viewing goodness…but this time you get an extra hour of party time PLUS a fantastic view of the Macy’s Fireworks!!

And we’re not even done yet! During the cruise you also get to enjoy an absolutely delicious buffet-style dinner, unlimited drinks, and dessert while either seated at your own private tables with family and friends or mingling with other fellow party-goers on the cruise. You’ll also be treated to party favors, a champagne toast at midnight, and our DJ and dance floor on the top deck, giving you everything you need to cruise the night away in a party atmosphere that is both casual and classy!!

Need any more reasons to go out with a cruise this New Year’s Eve?! Yep, I didn’t think so! Book now at this link - Skyline's Awesome New Year's Eve Gala Fireworks Dinner Cruise - to send 2011 off on its merry way and see why this special cruise is always so popular year after year.

Countdown to New Year’s

Now that we’ve had our fill of all the turkey, cranberry sauce, and stuffing we could eat and have given thanks for all the wonderful cruises we’ve helped to plan this year, it’s time for us to look forward to something new – the new year, that is! 

That’s right; we can’t wait to see all of the parties you guys can come up with next year. That’s why our full public dinner cruise schedule is already up on the site for 2012! We’ve also been discussing all sorts of events with many of you for private charters, including weddings, school trips, and corporate parties, and we’re proud to say that plenty of prime dates have already been booked throughout the summer.

Even though there’s every reason to be hyped up about what the new year will bring, we haven’t forgotten that there is still so much excitement and fun to be had on our remaining cruises. Our incredibly discounted holiday dinner cruises are too great an opportunity to miss. And who could forget our unforgettable 5-hour New Year’s Eve Gala Fireworks cruise?! It’s always a sell out!

So, we hope you enjoy this month’s cruises and take advantage of all the great things a holiday season at the Skyline can bring. For a perfect ending to another wonderfully eventful year, you know that a little water can go a long way!!
