Planning My First Party On A Dubai Yacht Rental

Planning My First Party On A Dubai Yacht Rental
  • PublishedSeptember 27, 2024

In all my years as an event planner in the glamorous city of Dubai, I have always kept my feet firmly on the ground. I meant that literally and figuratively. This year, however, I told myself that I would make sure to step out of my comfort zone. That was why when I was asked to plan a birthday party at a Dubai yacht rental, I didn’t let myself refuse the offer.

It was a party for my sister’s friend, a real estate heiress who knew how to spend her daddy’s money. I was just as excited as I was nervous. Until that point, I had specialized in organizing weddings, anniversaries, and corporate events, all of which took place on land. This was going to be an opportunity for me to branch out and up my game!

The job was supposed to be straightforward: Throw a birthday party fit for a star on a yacht. The problem is throwing such a party in a city like Dubai is harder than you’d imagine because glamorous is already the word of the day! To get it right, everything had to be perfect. From the catering to entertainment and decor, it all had to sum up to untouchable perfection on a yacht, and I would make sure of it. The referrals I could get from this gig are sure to be amazing.

Finding the Perfect Yacht

While planning, I kept in mind that the success of the whole soirée rested on renting the perfect yacht. I did not take that point lightly. This was not some deep sea fishing expedition.

As always, whenever it came to vehicle rentals, I chose OneClickDrive. I have done a lot of business with them over the years, and I just have to say: Nobody does car rentals better than OneClickDrive. That being said, how do they measure up with yacht rentals?

Well, as expected, the yacht rental part of their site was efficiently organized and I was able to find the perfect vessel. I chose a sleek 90-footer with an open deck, which is perfect for a night out on the water. This yacht had enough space for everyone and enough facilities to throw a party that was sure to impress. Apart from the open deck, it had fully furnished bedrooms, a large kitchen and even two jacuzzis.

Final Thoughts

I came up with a gourmet menu and I got a first-class catering service to make the gourmet menu a delicious reality. The settings for the entertainment were prepared and the decor could only be described as ‘magical’.

Watching the crowd from a corner on the night of the party after all my preparations, with everything going according to plan was the best feeling! The yacht had enough space for the guests to dance and mingle as much as they wanted and the fireworks were the perfect ending to the night. Through the use of OneClickDrive, I got the best yacht rental that served as the platform for organizing my amazing party.
