Bottle Message Enhancements
Add just the right touch to your gondola ride by preparing a personalized message that’s perfect for birthdays, anniversaries, and proposals.

This is Gondola Adventures’ signature surprise – everyone loves to get a Message in a Bottle!

Photography and Drone Packages
-
Want to capture your special moment from a unique perspective? Our drone videography package can help! Using a DJI Mavic Pro drone, which is smaller and quieter than most other drones, our pilot maneuvers the non-invasive craft to best capture your special moment in a series of breathtaking videos, which will then be available for you online, fully downloadable, within a week of your cruise. The videos are filmed in crystal clear 4K resolution, which makes them great for replay on any devices, including large-scale displays at weddings or other events. Why tell your friends and family about your special moment when you can show them?
The pilot captures you cruising down the canal towards a picturesque turning area, a bottle message drop and retrieval (if you opt to include this with your cruise), the reading of the bottle message, a marriage proposal or presentation of a gift, and footage of you cruising away from the area after your special moment. Filming covers a time span of approximately 15-20 minutes of the cruise, and the final video footage will be roughly 2-3 minutes long with our editing package (complete with music selection of your choice and graphics.)
Note: Our drone pilot is FAA Part 107 Certified and insured.

A Gondola Adventures® exclusive!
Your photographer surreptitiously takes long shots from the dock while you and your guest are boarding, and from the shoreline as you head out on the water. Still hidden, they photograph from an elevated position on shore for the bottle message drop, catching a proposal or special romantic moment from a distance.
After the full gondola shots and bottle message photos are taken, the photographer boards the gondola with you to take close-ups from the interior or back of the boat. Back at the dock, the final photos are taken.
The Professional Photography Package includes a minimum of 75 high-resolution images for full use by the guests. Photos should have photo credit if they are to be used publicly for commercial use.
The Wedding Ceremony Photography Package is an enhancement available for our Wedding Ceremony Cruise. Includes photography for the 90-minute cruise and a minimum of 75 photos.
Please call for information about our Professional Photographers. Contact our office at 949-646-2067 and speak with a representative to discuss the packages available.
