Can tents go on pavement?

Most of our larger pole and high peak tents are staked and work best on grass, soil, or similar surfaces. If you have pavement, concrete, or a tight site, send photos and measurements before booking.

How much extra space is needed around a tent?

Plan for extra room around the tent for stakes, ropes, setup access, and safe traffic flow. A generally flat area with several feet beyond the tent footprint is ideal.

Yes, sidewalls can be added to compatible tents when the forecast and site conditions make sense. They help with privacy, light rain, shade, and mild wind, but are not recommended in unsafe wind conditions.

What size tent do I need for 100 guests?

For 100 guests seated at round tables, a 30x40 tent seats up to 96 and a 40x60 seats up to 192, so 100 guests fit with room for a buffet and dance floor. For a standing or cocktail crowd of 100, a 20x30 or 20x40 works. Check the size chart above.

Pop Up Tent Rentals

Pop up tents are quick, flexible shade options for food stations, check in tables, small backyard gatherings, and vendor style setups.

They are lighter duty than our staked pole and frame tents, so they work best for smaller footprints and calmer weather windows. Sidewalls add extra coverage for light rain, wind, shade, or privacy and can be paired with compatible tents when the forecast allows.

Rental type

Pole Tent Rentals

Pole tents are tension based tents with center poles that divide the space into smaller sections and create that classic peaked party tent shape.

They are anchored with our 40" double headed stakes and are a strong fit for lawns, camps, fields, and backyard events where staking is possible.

Rental type

Marquee & High Peak Frame Tent Rentals

Marquee tents, also known as high peak frame tents, use a cross cable frame for an elegant peaked look with no center pole interrupting the middle of the tent.

They are especially popular for weddings and are easy to dress up with string lights inside.

Planning guide

Tent rental sizes and prices

Start with your guest count and how people will be seated. Round tables take more room than banquet rows, and a buffet, bar, or dance floor needs space too. When in doubt, size up.

Pole tent or high peak frame tent?

Pole tents have center poles and the classic peaked look. They are our best value for big lawn events. High peak frame tents have no center poles, so the middle stays open for dance floors and string lights. Most couples pick high peak for weddings.

Pole tents are tension based and have center poles, which work well for larger lawn events. High peak frame tents have an open middle and a more elegant marquee look, which many couples prefer for weddings.
