Pleasure Boat Cruises was proud to support Sophies Wedding Guide - Melbourne's dedicated TV program showcasing the best of the Bridal Industry. We took great pleasure in participating in the $20,000 grand prize competition.
Sarah was the lucky bride who claimed the prize and she kindly agreed to share some photos of her special day on board the MV Mandalay. Read the letter she wrote to us to share her experience...

Dear Keith, Yvonne and Lillah,
Thank you so much for sponsoring the Sophie’s Wedding Guide prize. The boat cruise and ceremony were fantastic. All our guests raved about the cruise – the food, the atmosphere, the service – everything was top class. It was such a unique and wonderful way to have a wedding. The ceremony was beautiful and ran so smoothly. The red ribbons looked amazing! When the gang plank went up and the MV Mandalay departed the dock it was like Russell and I were departing on our married lives together.
I also want to thank you all personally for your advice and expertise in the lead up to the wedding. You answered my many questions swiftly and patiently!
Russell and I can honestly say that it was one of the best days of our lives. I have attached some photos taken by our friends and family. They aren’t taken by the professional photographer who sponsored the photography, I haven’t seen those ones yet.
Thank you again so much.
Best wishes
Sarah and Russell Barrett
