There are a few airports local to Long Beach, each with different pros and cons. Long Beach Airport (LGB) is the closest to the venue, but can be more expensive to fly into and have limited connecting flight options. LGB is about a 30 minute drive from The Queen Mary. Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is about a 50 minute drive to the Queen Mary, but has many flight options and generally is the most cost effective option to fly into. John Wayne Airport (SNA) is also about a 50 minute drive to the Queen Mary. John Wayne can be slightly more expensive than LAX, but it is much less busy and takes much less time to get out of the airport.
We recommend staying right on The Queen Mary as they have a historic hotel on the lower levels of the ship!
We are asking our guest to wear formal attire. We have a lot more detail and photo examples on our "Attire" page.
Our ceremony will be "unplugged." We are asking that no one pulls out their phones to take photos or video as we would like everyone to be able to live in the moment as much as possible. We have hired an amazing photo and videography team and we will be happy to share photos after!
Yes! During cocktail hour there will be a fully open bar available. After cocktail hour, beer and wine will be available or you may order from a cash bar for other kinds of drinks.
Due to venue limits, we are only able to accommodate a very limited number of guests, so only those listed on your RSVP card are invited.
Out ceremony will begin right at 6:00pm. Latecomers will not be able to be seated. Please plan to be in your seats by 5:45 and allow extra time to board the ship!
