| GOD SAVE THE QUEEN! We can't tell you how excited we are to have the Queen Mary for our official everything - hotel and venue! This ship, once operated by Cunard White Star Line as the world's grandest ocean liner and now the pride of Long Beach, is larger than the Titanic, houses the largest collection of art deco art and furniture in the world, and has a colourful and fascinating history. She is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Queen has played hostess to the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Sir Winston Churchill, Mary Pickford, Fred Astaire, Greta Garbo, Clark Gable, World War II soldiers, a gaggle of ghosts, and countless weddings, proms, movie shoots, and a myriad of other elegant events. Come next July, she will also count the denizens of alt.gothic on her list of guest luminaries.
