Chicago summers are some of the best in the country. People are finally out from their winter hibernation and ready to get outside and make things happen.

We were able to witness one of those moments just recently when we had a young couple rent one of our Zar 65 rental boats for a birthday cruise. What’s better than a birthday cruise along the Chicago city skyline, you ask? A surprise engagement proposal!

On a perfectly sunny day in Chicago on the water, EJ had set up the champagne, got down on one knee and asked Emily to marry him. She said “Yes!” and the real celebration began!

We were so proud to be able to capture the moment and provide the perfect setting for the big moment in their lives that they will never forget.

How about you? Feel free to send us your pictures with your story about moments you’ve captured out on the water – we’d love to hear all about it!

If you have something planned for the future, there is still plenty of summer left to get on the water and make those memories. Go ahead, rent your boat and enjoy!
