Planning for your event

A tented event requires some thoughtful planning. We want to be sure you have the style and size tent that will work best for your particular event, so to begin…..

What kind of event are you planning and how many guests are you expecting? Is this a wedding ceremony, civil union, standup cocktail party, reception, birthday or anniversary party, trade show or corporate event?

What do you plan to do under the tent?

Will there be dancing under the tent (which requires a dance floor)?

Are you having a live band (which requires a stage), or a DJ (which usually requires only a table or two)?

Are you planning a buffet, food stations, or a sit-down served dinner? A buffet or food station setup may require more space under the tent to accommodate the food tables as well as space for people to move around them.

Will there be a bar or beverage area under the tent? What about a cake table, seating card table, or gift table?

Once we have this information and inspect the proposed event site then we will be able to help you determine the proper size and style tent. At that point we can work to design a possible layout and floor plan using our CAD service program.
