Decoration and atmosphere: making your evening on a boat in Paris shine

A boat already brings an exceptional backdrop: the Seine, the illuminated monuments, the movement of the water. So the decoration doesn't need to do too much to transform an evening: a few well-chosen touches are often enough to create a real atmosphere, without cluttering a space that is already visually rich.

Working with the boat's space rather than against it

Glazed lounges, decks, a built-in bar: every boat has its own proportions and its own natural or artificial light. The most successful decoration works with this space - dressing a table, a bar or a deck - rather than trying to recreate a conventional venue on board.

Choosing a theme and carrying it through without overdoing it

A strong theme (a dominant colour, a specific mood, a dress code) works better than piling up decorative items. On a boat, circulation space is precious: it is better to focus your efforts on a few key points - the main table, the bar, the entrance - than to decorate every corner.

Lighting, sound and the little details

Lighting plays a key role once night has fallen: candles, fairy lights or ambient lighting quickly transform a lounge. As for sound, a good system suited to the size of the boat often does more for the atmosphere than elaborate decoration. The little details - place cards, centrepieces, themed signage - complete the picture without becoming the main focus.

What we provide on board

Our boats have a built-in sound system (amplifier, player, wireless microphone) and audiovisual equipment for your music, speeches or presentations. For the decoration itself, we coordinate the set-up with your supplier or our partners, according to the chosen theme and the layout of the boat selected.
