Perfect in every way

All the staff at RCYC are exceptional, they actually care, rather than it being 'another wedding'. The detail both Kate and Simon the chef go to, and tailor make is incredible and the backdrop of the water on a sunny day with the tide in, cannot be forgotten. they all made our day a totally magical experience. Thank you

Best Day Ever!!!

We had our wedding here on 13.04.22, and all i can say is that it was everything i'd hoped and more.
We booked a wednesday, as the prices of wedding venues would have left us nothing short of bankrupt!
The RCYC is local to us, and what better way than support a local buisness than having our wedding in Burnham-on-crouch!
Kate knights was amazing, with constant communication and allowing us to decorate the venue how we wanted and by ourselves the day before.
I have had all my guests since comment on how amazing the food was, how attentive and respectful staff were during our wedding breakfast by topping up glasses and not clearing tables until everyone on the table had finished!! They allowed us to open both downstairs and upstairs bars for our guests following our ceremony so that no one went without a tipple!!
I can do absolutely nothing but praise the venue, all the young staff working (who worked tirelessly all day long), all the bar staff and of course Kate!
I would recommend the venue over and over for both ceremonys and reception for those who dont want to remortgage there house to pay for a wedding.
RCYC did not disappoint, and not once did it feel that we had paid less than a venue twice the price.

Thank you again ,
The new Mr and Mrs Rawlings

Wonderful day

My Son Stuart and his wife had their wedding at the Royal Corinthian on the 13th April.
I cannot express enough the care and attention to detail the staff paid to us all.
The food was amazing, every course was served piping hot, the staff paying attention to everyone's needs.
Kate, the wedding planner was excellent and went above and beyond to make sure that the happy couple were looked after throughout.

The Most Perfect Day!! We held our wedding here 22nd april 17, our guests were bowled over with how beautiful the club is & the amazing views on the balcony. Food was exceptional on the day & for breakfast the morning after, staff are so very helpful! Kate is just the perfect organiser, it all ran seamlessly which put us at ease & we could really enjoy our day.

Wouldn't change a thing!

We got married at the RCYC on 3 June 2016, Kate was very helpful and quick to reply to any questions or queries we have prior to the day. You could literally ask for anything and they were more than accommodating. The day itself was perfect. We had a small service with 35 guests and the ceremony room was made to an ideal size, An afternoon tea at 5pm downstairs was perfect too. The tables were set reasonably close together which gave an intimate feel to the room. Kate, Tony and the team at RCYC were flawless. Everything went so smoothly and the staff were amazing and professional. Several of our guests commented on what a lovely venue it was and even though the sun did not shine for us, having the water and boats in our photos was beautiful and just what we wanted.
We couldn't find fault with anything and would strongly recommend this venue to anyone. On such a special day you need confidence in the people you employ to pull it all together for you. This team did just that!

Amazing!!! 5 star!!

Our wedding on Thursday 20th august at the royal Corinthian yacht club was absolutely amazing! From start to finish Kate and all of the staff were so helpful and nothing was too much to ask! The views from the royal Corinthian are stunning whatever the weather! Food is also at an exceptional level, your guests will 100% be 'wow'ed by the standards. Amazing photography opportunities in and around the venue with the pontoon and river in the background being one of best. thank you for everything you did to make our special day perfect!

Could not have asked for a better day

We got married at the Corinthian on 16th May 2015. The day was perfect, huge thank you all the staff for making our day the best.
Kate organised the day brilliantly and is always on hand in the run up to the day and answers all your questions quickly and really puts you at ease.
The food was lovely and we had so many compliments from our guests on how lovely the food, staff and the venue was.
All the staff made the day special for us especially Kate and Tony. But would also like to thank Charlie, one of the waiters/bar staff, for driving the best man back to his hotel 10 minutes before the ceremony was due to start when he realised he forgot the rings. You saved the day... and probably his life.

Wedding 30th May 2015

We held a wedding party for my daughter at the Royal Corinthian Burnham on Saturday 30th May 2015. Every moment from the arrival of the wedding party to the last dance went with absolute precision. The room looked stunning with views over the River Crouch. The wedding breakfast was sumptuous and well received by all the guests and the waiting staff were attentive without appearing obvious. It was a wonderful day with absolutely no criticism what so ever. Well done to Kate and her Team and thank you.

Amazing venue, amazing staff!

We can't thank Royal Corinthian Yacht Club and staff enough for a truly magical wedding ceremony. I was able to arrive by boat with all my guests watching from the balcony above, what an amazing sight seeing all your family and friends waving from a distance. From the day we went to view RCYC to consider having our ceremony there, Kate Boothby and the rest of the staff have been so welcoming and helpful. Even when our boat was unable to take us at the last moment, Kate was on hand to try and assist and arrange another boat for us! As you can see from pictures RCYC is a beautiful building, and the atmosphere there for a wedding is amazing. My new husband and I would really love to thank you all, and would highly recommend this venue!!
Thank you all once again,
Mr and Mrs Feeney (Tracey Williams) xxx

Our wedding could not have been any better!

A massive thanks to Kate and the rest of the team at RCYC for everything they did to make our day so perfect. From the advice and help Kate gave us throughout the planning, to the food, the venue itself and the happy, friendly staff on the day we wouldn't change anything. I strongly recommend having your wedding at RCYC, you won't be disappointed!

Our special day

We held both our ceremony and reception at the Yacht Club at the end of May 2014. The day could not have been more perfect. Kate and her events team were so professional; helpful and smiling in the lead up and on the day. The venue cannot be beaten. The sun shone for us and to be able to take photographs on the pontoon and balconies was the icing on the cake!
The food was delicious, both the wedding breakfast and evening buffet. Our guests have all commented on the wonderful venue and how relaxed the whole day felt.
We can't thank the team at the Royal Corinthian enough for making our day so special.

Best Wedding Venue in Essex. Fact.

I got married at the Royal Corinthiam Yacht Club in July 2012. This is an excellent venue come rain or shine (we had both on the day) and I cannot recommend it enough. The setting is beautiful. Kate, the Events Manager is every Bride's dream, knowledgeable, friendly and just the sort of planning partner you need. The food was fantastic, we had so many compliments from our guests throughout the day. All of the staff couldn't have been friendlier and helpful - absolutely wonderful. This is a real gem of a wedding venue.

Fantastic venue, couldn't ask for more

We had our wedding reception here and everything was splendid! We loved the food and the feedback from all our guests was that it was second to none! We organised the day ourselves but the staff were always on hand, very accomadating and friendly. They really knew how to make our big day special! We arrived at the venue by boat an it was fantastic to see all our guests standing on the balcony waiting for us! The sunset view from the upstairs balcony over the river in the evening was absolutely beautiful and we had guest queuing for photos. All in all a perfect day and we feel this venue made our day the perfect day it was. Couldn't recommend The Royal Corinthian Yacth Club more.
