Absolutely! We want your time on the water to be as celebratory as possible. Balloons and other decorations are a-ok, so go ahead and deck out the boat to match your lakeside fun.
Just a heads-up: While we love a little sparkle, glitter can be messy and stick around long after the party’s over. So, we kindly ask that you leave the glitter at home for the sake of keeping our boats looking their best!
