Hello,

Can anyone recommend a vendor to rent a water slide for my daughter's birthday party?

I found many through a Google search, but would appreciate anyone's recommendation.

Thank you very much!

I would rethink a water slide. Those are accidents waiting to happen and think of how much fun your daughter's party will be when a child breaks an arm or leg when they slip. Just something to think about.

Someone I know is now a paraplegic because of a slip and slide.

A water slide however is not nearly as bad...

If you do get one you need to get insurance in case one of the kids gets hurt. They have 1 day event insurance you can purchase through your broker.

Thanks for the replies

Sorry to hear of above poster's friend's injuries; as a child, one of the neighborhood kids suffered traumatic and complete spinal cord injuries as a result of diving into a backyard swimming pool

We are securing one day event insurance for the party. Have done it before, wouldn't dream of having a big bash without it!

Now, back to the original question...has anyone used an inflatable rental company that they'd recommend?
