    Planning Your Class or Family Reunion

    Once you’ve set a date for your family or class reunion, it’s time to start planning, even if the party is a year away. A budget has to be determined, invitations sent, a menu selected, and activities planned, not to mention deciding on decorations and party favors.

    It can be challenging for one person to manage all the details that a spectacular reunion involves. If you’re in charge of organizing a class or family reunion, form a committee with friends or family members who can help you.

    You can also turn to a professional with the knowledge and savvy necessary to bring your vision to life. Anita Dee Yacht Charters’s full staff of entertainment and hospitality specialists are ready to assist you in making the reunion unique for all of your guests.  Let our team help you throw the most memorable class or family reunion.

    As a family-owned business, Anita Dee Yacht Charters understands how important family is and what it takes to create an exclusive event for your loved ones. Are you concerned about finding a venue that can accommodate a large school class? We love helping friends and family reconnect, and can accommodate group sizes as large as 400 guests on our charters.

    To make this event the finest, Anita Dee Yacht Charters prides ourselves in providing the creativity, flexibility, and versatility you need. We offer competitive pricing and can help you with any or all of the reunion details.

    Selecting a Yacht for Your Family or Class Reunion

    When Anita Dee Yacht Charters was started as a side business over 30 years ago by Tony Difiglio and his wife, Anita, Tony named the first yacht after her. The Anita Dee I was the vessel that brought the dream of offering Chicago a unique venue for celebrations to life. As their yacht charter business grew, Tony and Anita added a larger yacht to the fleet, naming it the Anita Dee II after the couple’s daughter, Anita Difiglio, Jr.

    Over the years, Anita Dee Yacht Charters has set the standard for Chicago luxury private yacht cruises. When you choose one of our two yachts as the venue for your high school, college, or family’s event, you’ll set the standard for reunions.

    For a more intimate atmosphere, the Anita Dee I can hold up to 135 passengers on two levels. Choose the Anita Dee II for larger groups, since this yacht has three levels and can accommodate as many as 400 people.

    Both yachts are conveniently docked in downtown Chicago at the DuSable Harbor on breathtaking Lake Shore Drive. We also have many options in Illinois along the Chicago River should you need to anchor at a different location.

    Each yacht charter event abroad the Anita Dee I or Anita Dee II is private and customizable, so choose the time of day that best suits your group’s needs. From enjoying brunch while taking in views of the city skyline to a sunset cruise, you’ll receive unmatched customer care on the date of your choice whether your class or family reunion is held in the morning, afternoon, or evening.

    Our yachts have a state-of-the-art entertainment system, and the Anita Dee II even has a piano to provide music. Anita Dee Yacht Charters also has a list of pre-approved musicians that are available to set the night to music.

    Select from Anita Dee Yacht Charters’s list of pre-approved caterers and entertainment providers for your reunion. Or feel free to choose your vendors and musicians (this will add an additional fee to the cost of your total charter).
