Highly recommend!

Dayna and the staff at Charles Riverboat Company made our small wedding celebration simply amazing. We had a group of about 50 people aboard The Valiant and it was perfect in every way. Dayna was excellent from the beginning, listening to my vision for the day and executed it better than I could have imagined! She took care of all the details, made me a timeline, floor plan, and menu. Literally all we had to do was walk onto the boat...which was beautiful! We had the perfect evening - the food was delicious, bar staff was excellent, and we had stunning views of the harbor before we danced the night away. I highly recommend Charles Riverboat Company to anyone planning their next event!!

Well-organized, wonderful vendor!

We rented the Valiant for a 55-person Welcome Party the night before our wedding. We did a two-hour cruise + buffet dinner + bar, and it was SO fun and unique. So many guests commented on how lovely it was, and how it made for such a fun kick-off to the wedding. Their team (shout out Dayna!) was exceptionally professional and very responsive to any questions we had. The crew on board did an excellent job. I just wish we could have used them for our reception (they were already booked!), because they were super easy to work with and did a great job of making the event feel really special.

Amazing Experience

Melissa and Georgie were one of the best vendors we have worked with. We had to make several changes from the hours, the size of the boats, and the location but Melissa and Georgie always had a solution for us and worked with us to make those necessary adjustments. We, unfortunately, had a terrible planner so if it wasn't for Melissa and Georgie, I don't think our event would've been smooth sailing. Thank you!!
