Tents, Tables, Chairs

As an event rental company specializing in tented weddings, graduations, corporate events, school functions, and church gatherings, we frequently receive inquiries about hosting events under tents. One of the most common questions we hear is, “What is the cost of holding my event under a tent?”

While most clients understand the need to rent essential items like a tent, tables, and chairs, they often realize that there’s much more to consider. For a flawless event, you may also need lighting, a dance floor, china, glassware, flatware, and linens. However, there are often additional elements required to ensure a seamless experience that are not immediately obvious.

Due to the many variables involved, it’s challenging to provide an accurate cost without asking specific questions and tailoring a detailed, itemized quote based on what the client envisions. Once we gather the basic details of their event, we typically offer a cost per person for the type of event they’re planning. Some events are simple and hosted at venues that need minimal rentals; others are elaborate and held at locations where everything must be brought in. And of course, many fall somewhere in between.

For example, we've recently organized picnic-style receptions where we provided a tent with basic lighting, tables, chairs, and linens, with rental costs around $30 per person.

How Do I Plan My Tent Rental?

If you're considering a tented wedding or outdoor event, we’ll arrange a site evaluation at your chosen location. Afterward, we provide a detailed quote and a CAD drawing to help visualize the setup. We charge a non-refundable fee for this service, which will be credited toward your rental charges if you decide to book with us.


	• Rain: AWARNING Rain water can collect on the tent fabric and cause 'ponding' or 'water pocketing' under certain weather conditions, especially if the tent is not installed and tensioned correctly. The additional weight from the water will cause the tent to sag and ponding will continue to get worse. The weight can destroy the tent fabric and/or cause the poles and baseplates to sink into the soil. Highly saturated soil will cause the stakes to lose their holding power.
	• Wind: AWARNING Wind or wind and rain can cause the tension of the tent to change by loosening ratchet assemblies, pulling stakes, and or causing the poles to shift or sink. It is very important to do routine maintenance checks and maintain proper tension on the tent top at all times especially if weather conditions are such that ratchets are beginning to loosen.
	Lightning: AWARNING Immediately evacuate the tent until the chance of a lightning strike is no longer present. Snow: Tents, canopies, structures, and shelters are not designed to carry any type of snow loading. These products should not be used if snow of any kind is present, and must be evacuated immediately.

What Variables Should I Consider?

A tented event is like creating a venue from the ground up. You’ll need to provide all the elements a traditional venue would offer, such as level flooring, stable walls, a roof, electricity, climate control, restrooms, and accessibility. While these needs may seem straightforward, tented events often involve much more planning and logistics to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Guest Count

One of the most significant factors in determining the cost of your event is your guest count. The more guests you have, the higher the cost will be for rentals, catering, and other services. A simple way to reduce costs is to trim down the number of invitees, which can also help manage space and ensure a more intimate atmosphere.

The Venue

The venue will play a critical role in the overall cost of your event. If your venue has an indoor space that can accommodate part of the event—such as a cocktail reception—you may not need to rent an additional tent. Similarly, consider the availability of restroom facilities; if they are inadequate, portable restrooms will need to be rented. For outdoor weddings, graduation celebrations, or corporate gatherings held at private homes, farms, or churches, it's important to assess whether the venue has the necessary infrastructure or if additional rentals are required.
