  What Size Tent Do I Need????

Weddings and Garden Parties/  The typical wedding or garden party under a tent will require space for guests to be seated at round tables, as well as space for buffet, head tables, bars, and dance floor.  Although every party has unique requirements, the general rule for this type of party is to allow 15 square feet per guest.

Cocktail Parties/ Since there is not the need for as much furniture at a cocktail party, (minimal seating, smaller food stations, etc.) the space allowance can be reduced to 10 square feet per guest.

Ceremony or Row Seating/ For wedding ceremonies or public assemblies, one must allow for the chairs, space between the rows, aisles, and space required for the podium and / or stage.  The suggested allowance is 8 square feet per person.

Please remember no two functions are alike.  Each event deserves to be looked at individually.  Be sure to check with the caterer or band for any special needs.

Our Tents are Frame Tents, which is actually a structure, they are staked down through the leg, so there are no ropes staked out, and no poles underneath. The price stated includes our staff setting up and taking down the tent. If location allows we usually set tents up on Thurs. or Fri. and take down Mon. or Tues.

We do rent some self install pole tents, see our price list.
