Location Inspiration: Nautical Wedding Theme

Inspiration, Wedding Fashion, Wedding IdeasWedding Creativo Photography

Chicago weddings that take place on Lake Michigan cruise ships can inspire fun nautical themes for summer weddings. 

Ships docked at Navy Pier, Spirit of Chicago, Mystic Blue and Odyssey, are operated by Entertainment Cruises.  The weddings we have experienced on them have been fun and unique, and when the Navy Pier fireworks go off, the view is always spectacular from the lake.

Chicago River wedding cruises are also fantastic.  Wedding rentals are available by Chicago's First Lady, which docks along the Chicago River Walk and offers river and lakefront charters.  The river cruise route, with up-close views of the city's spectacular architecture, gives your wedding reception an amazing backdrop.

With Chicago wedding cruises as our featured location inspiration today, there are many ideas and fashions that everyone could have fun with for nautical, marina, lakeside, navy, or sailor related themes.

Here is a collection of nautical wedding items we found on etsy.com:
