Are you planning an outdoor wedding? \u00a0If so, do you have contingency plans in place? \u00a0What happens if it rains on your wedding day? \u00a0Can you afford to rent a tent? \u00a0Having room in your budget for a tent will keep you sane and stress free, and even if it’s a bright and sunny day, your guests will appreciate a place to get out of the sun.<\/p>\n

If you are only days away from your wedding and rain is predicted chances are that you are not the only one looking for a tent. \u00a0You’ve probably spent every penny of your wedding budget, so adding a tent – which costs quite a bit – can push you far beyond what you wanted to spend.<\/p>\n

So first – does your location have amble space for a tent and is it allowed? \u00a0Secondly, what size tent do you need? \u00a0If you have up to 100 guests a 30×60 canopy tent should be fine. \u00a0Over 200 guests requires a tent at least 40×80. \u00a0You need to allow space for a dance floor, DJ, buffet, bar and possibly a photo booth. \u00a0Your catering company will also need to be covered by an additional smaller tent placed close to the event tent. \u00a0Then what type of tent do you want? \u00a0A Pole Tent works best on a grassy area and is secured with stakes. \u00a0There will be at least one center pole supporting the tent. \u00a0A frame tent can be place on relatively any surface and there are no center poles to obstruct your view and event layout.<\/p>\n
