Sleek, smart and spacious, the Cruz is a 400-tonne steamer built in 1919 and now berthed on the picturesque Leith waterfront. Originally named ‘Ocean Mist’ and previously owned by the Guinness family, the ship came to Leith in the mid 1980s. It was moored on the Water of Leith and used as a floating restaurant until 2000. In March 2005, however, a 1.1 million pound refit began which was to breathe new life into the boat and at the end of 2006 the Cruz opened as a piano bar, function room and restaurant complex.
Today the Cruz is home to a number of stylish bars and restaurants and is arguably one of the most versatile wedding venues around. The vessel has a 260 capacity for evening receptions and can host a maximum 80 guests for the wedding breakfast. In short it is able to cater for the largest to the smallest of parties and certainly offers a day to remember. The facilities include a separate sound system,
big screen overhead projector and bars on
every floor – including the upper deck, which enjoys spectacular views! Menus are tailored to meet individual needs. “We have held weddings here for the past two years and they always have a great atmosphere. Cruz is an extremely versatile venue and we are committed to working with the couple to make their celebration a beautiful and memorable day,” owner Matthew Tabatabaie told Real Life Weddings.
