Premier Party Cruises offers the perfect venue for this momentous celebration with stunning Texas Hill Country scenery as your backdrop. Our Private Boat Rentals provide privacy, premium amenities, and endless photo opportunities to capture the big reveal.

A gender reveal is one of the most exciting moments of pregnancy, and it deserves an extraordinary setting. Lake Travis provides breathtaking natural beauty with crystal-clear waters, dramatic limestone cliffs, and stunning Texas Hill Country views that create the perfect backdrop for this milestone announcement. The private setting of a boat cruise ensures your moment is shared only with your closest family and friends.
Unlike crowded venues or backyard parties, a gender reveal cruise offers complete privacy and exclusivity. Your group has the entire boat with no strangers or distractions. The scenic lake environment provides countless photo opportunities, and the surprise reveal can incorporate unique water elements like colored smoke, confetti cannons visible against the sky, or balloons released over the open water.
Premier Party Cruises has hosted numerous gender reveal celebrations, and we love being part of these joyful moments. Our professional crew ensures everything runs smoothly while staying out of the way during the big reveal. With 14+ years of Lake Travis experience, we know how to create the perfect setting for celebrations that matter.
Planning a gender reveal cruise is exciting and straightforward. First, select the boat size that fits your guest count. Day Tripper is perfect for intimate reveals with just parents and grandparents (up to 14 guests). Meeseeks and The Irony accommodate medium-sized gatherings (up to 30 guests each). Clever Girl handles larger celebrations with extended family and friends (up to 75 guests).
Coordinate your reveal mechanism with our team. Popular options include confetti cannons, colored smoke bombs, balloon releases, or colored powder. Some parents open a box to release colored balloons against the lake and sky backdrop. Others prefer confetti poppers or even colored water balloons. We can anchor in a scenic cove for the perfect reveal moment.
Decorations are welcome on board. Many gender reveal cruises feature "Team Boy" and "Team Girl" decorations, question mark designs, or "What Will Baby Be?" themes. You can also coordinate catering, bring a reveal cake, or arrange for pink or blue celebration beverages. Our crew will work with whatever elements you bring to make your reveal special.
Lake Travis provides the ultimate backdrop for gender reveal photos and videos. The combination of clear blue water, Texas Hill Country hills, and open sky creates stunning imagery that will make your announcement stand out. Whether you capture the moment professionally or with smartphones, the natural beauty enhances every shot.
Consider the timing of your cruise for optimal photography. Morning cruises offer soft, flattering light. Afternoon cruises provide bright, vibrant colors. Late afternoon cruises (our Saturday 3:30-7:30pm window for disco cruises, though gender reveals are private charters) offer golden hour lighting for magical photos. Our crew can suggest scenic anchoring spots perfect for photography.
Many families hire professional photographers to document their gender reveal cruise. The unique setting and memorable moment deserve quality documentation. If bringing a photographer, let us know in advance so we can plan for optimal positioning and lighting throughout the reveal.
A gender reveal cruise offers more than just the announcement moment. The entire 4-hour cruise becomes a celebration of your growing family. Before the reveal, guests can enjoy the scenic cruise, take bets on Team Boy or Team Girl, and share in the anticipation. After the reveal, the celebration continues with toasts, swimming if desired, and quality time with loved ones.
Our cruises are BYOB friendly for guests 21+ with valid ID. Bring champagne for celebration toasts, non-alcoholic sparkling cider for parents-to-be, and any beverages your guests prefer (cans and plastic containers only, no glass). You can also bring food or coordinate catering delivery to the marina for a complete celebration experience.
The private setting allows for personal moments that public venues cannot offer. Grandparents can share their joy, siblings can celebrate their new role, and friends can shower the expecting parents with love. The intimate boat environment creates connection and celebration in a way that feels genuine and memorable.
Premier Party Cruises offers vessels suited to gender reveal parties of any size. Day Tripper accommodates up to 14 guests, perfect for intimate reveals with immediate family. Meeseeks and The Irony each accommodate up to 30 guests for celebrations including extended family and close friends. Our flagship Clever Girl accommodates up to 75 guests for larger gatherings.
All boats feature professional USCG certified captains, premium Bluetooth sound systems, large coolers with ice, and comfortable seating. The sound system allows you to play meaningful music, make announcements, and capture the reactions clearly on video. Our crew handles all navigation while you focus entirely on your celebration.
Private charters start at $200 per hour with a 4-hour minimum. Pricing varies by boat size and timing. Weekend dates are most popular for gender reveals, and we recommend booking 6-8 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date. Contact us to discuss your vision and receive accurate pricing.
Can we do a confetti cannon or smoke bomb on the boat? Yes, within reason! Confetti and smoke reveals are popular and work beautifully against the lake backdrop. We ask that you use products that won't damage the boat or leave permanent residue. Our crew can suggest positioning for best photos and easiest cleanup.
Is swimming part of the cruise? Swimming is available during private charters when conditions are safe at the captain's discretion. Life jackets are provided and required in the water. It's entirely optional based on your group's preferences.
Can we bring food and drinks? Absolutely! All cruises are BYOB friendly (21+ with ID for alcohol). Bring cakes, snacks, and beverages in cans or plastic containers (no glass). We can also coordinate catering delivery to the marina.
What if it rains on our reveal day? Weather on Lake Travis can change quickly. We monitor conditions closely and will work with you if weather requires rescheduling. Your special moment deserves perfect conditions, and we maintain flexibility to ensure your reveal happens successfully.
How many guests can join? Day Tripper holds up to 14 guests, Meeseeks and The Irony hold up to 30 guests each, and Clever Girl accommodates up to 75 guests. We'll help you select the right boat for your celebration.
