    Gister hebben we via Event op het Water een boot gehuurd voor ons groepsuitje. De boot zelf was prachtig, ontzettend schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien. Onze schipper was niet alleen een professionele bestuurder, maar ook een geweldige gastheer die precies de juiste sfeer wist neer te zetten en ons de mooiste plekjes vanaf het water heeft laten zien. Dankzij de uitstekende service, de lekkere hapjes en de ontspannen sfeer hebben we een fantastische dag gehad. Absoluut een aanrader voor wie op zoek is naar een zorgeloos en gezellig evenement op het water! We boeken de volgende keer zeker weer.

    Wedding Haarlem

    Getting married on the water in Haarlem

    Event op het Water vaart in Haarlem with luxurious open sloops for 10 to 70 people. For larger groups, we connect several sloops together, up to a maximum of 200 guests. Each booking is a private boat, so you will never be among tourists or other groups.

    Important to know: the sloop is not a wedding venue designated by the municipality. You can give the legal yes at the city hall or another official location in Haarlem. On board you celebrate the day after, or you hold a symbolic ceremony on the water. That saves paperwork and it gives you all the freedom in time, route and decoration.

    Without charge ⤵

    Wedding Haarlem

    Three ways to celebrate your wedding in Haarlem on the water

    1. Symbolic ceremony on the Haarlem canals

    For an intimate ceremony you sail the short route through the center, from the Nieuwe Gracht along the Gravestenenbrug and the Waag. This tour lasts 1.5 hours and is suitable for groups of 10 to 40 people. The sloop sails effortlessly through the narrow canals where larger ships do not come. Combine it with a more extensive cruise through the canals of Haarlem if you want more time on board. Plan the ceremony in the first half hour, then everyone will have plenty of rest afterwards to toast.

    2. Wedding party at the Spaarne

    The most chosen route takes 2.5 hours and goes over the Spaarne, past Molen De Adriaan and the Teylers Museum. This is the cruise for a reception or party after the ceremony, with music on board and snacks from the own kitchen. If you want to make it a real party with a dj and a dance floor, take a look at the party boat in Haarlem. In the evening, the illuminated quays and bridges come out most beautifully.

    3. Wedding venue in Haarlem for large groups

    The longest route takes 3.5 hours and leads via the Spaarne to Spaarndam and the beautiful Nel, a combination of city, village and open water. This tour suits a wedding that lasts all afternoon, with lunch or dinner on board along the way. If you want to decide for yourself how long and where you sail, take a look at the possibilities to boat rentals in Haarlem. Make reservations for large groups well in advance, because then several sloops must be free on the same date.

    Something else to celebrate?

    Make your event great with the event op het Water packages. Discover Haarlem from the water on one of the boats. From the historic Haarlem canals to the Spaarne, in this guide you will find the ideal location that meets your wishes. Enjoy an intimate celebration, a culinary experience or a private tour. Everything is possible at events on the Water. Book a moment to never forget.

    Wedding Venue Haarlem

    Why a boat works as a wedding venue in Haarlem

    • Completely private. Only your company on board, no other groups and no walk-in from outside.
    • All-in tariff. Beer, wine, soft drinks, coffee and tea are included in the price, including VAT and without subsequent calculation.
    • Weather doesn't matter. The canopy closes and the sloop is heated, so rain on your wedding day doesn't change the plan.
    • Decor without decoration. The canals, Mills and historic quays do the work you need to arrange in a hall with flowers and lighting.
    • One point of contact. Skipper, catering staff, catering and route all run via one contact person at Event op het Water.

    Are you in doubt between routes or group sizes? Our consultants think along with you seven days a week.
