The SS Sicamous is a heritage ship, which is perfect for weddings. It has been beautifully restored, and sits on the Shore of Okanagan Lake. Say your vows on board British Columbia’s largest surviving stern wheeler, with stunning views and a backdrop of the glimmering Okanagan Lake. A wedding on the SS Sicamous is nothing short of magical. The crew of the SS Sicamous would be happy to set time aside to invite you for a personal tour of the SS Sicamous, to personally show you the ship and discuss your vision for your big day.

Facilities and capacity

The SS Sicamous is offered for the entire day, for the wedding ceremony and wedding reception. It gives you the possibility to celebrate your wedding indoors as well as outdoors. The paddle wheeler can host as many as 85 guests.

Services offered

On the day of your wedding, the crew and museum staff closes the doors to the public, so you and your guests will have private use of the ship! Guest can roam the decks, relax with a glass of wine, or admire the displays and model railway.

The SS Sicamous provides all the tables and chairs that you will need, in addition to sound equipment and a collection of vintage and ‘20s music. Additional items such as wine glasses, linens, cutlery and plates, are also available on rental basis.

The SS Sicamous has partnered with a local wedding planner to help you with the best possible wedding experience.
