I believe a solution that can solve your problem is something along the lines of this:

TRUE_FALSE_CHOICES = (
    (True, 'Yes'),
    (False, 'No')
)

boolfield = forms.ChoiceField(choices = TRUE_FALSE_CHOICES, label="Some Label", 
                              initial='', widget=forms.Select(), required=True)

Might not be exact but it should get you pointed in the right direction.

What you can do is add “choices” key word to your BooleanField in your models.py 

class MyModel(models.Model):
    BOOL_CHOICES = ((True, 'Yes'), (False, 'No'))

    attending = models.BooleanField(choices=BOOL_CHOICES)

With a modelform

TRUE_FALSE_CHOICES = (
    (True, 'Yes'),
    (False, 'No')
)
class MyModelForm(forms.ModelForm):
    class Meta:
        model = MyModel
        fields = ('attending',)
        widgets = {
            'attending': forms.Select(choices=TRUE_FALSE_CHOICES)
        }
