6 Great Reasons for Renting a Tent

  3. 6 Great Reasons for Renting…

1. Create Space

A tent is a great way to designate space and create perimeters where none existed before. Tents come in all different sizes so you can get creative with the sizes and configurations you use.

We got creative with this event’s tent rentals by placing the tents that housed the guests and band around the perimeter of the dance floor, leaving the center section open to create a courtyard effect.

2. Blank Canvas

One of the really great things about having your event in a tent is that you get to be really creative in your design. You start with a complete blank canvas. Then, as an artist chooses his/her colors and brushstrokes, you also get to choose your colors and how you want to personalize your tent.

Some ideas include colored lighting, drapery on the ceiling and walls, hanging chandeliers or lanterns, etc. The possibilities are endless.

3. Flexibility

Because tents come in all different sizes, you can accommodate any number of guests for your party. You can use a small tent for a backyard party or a large tent for an elegant wedding or corporate event.

4. Privacy

Tents allow you and your guests to be able to enjoy your party in privacy. Regardless of how many onlookers there are, you won’t even notice them because you are behind tent walls enjoying your intimate and private party.

This event had their wedding right in their front yard with a tent to allow them privacy from the neighbors.

The bride and groom chose to use long tents as barriers to enclose their wedding at the San Jose Museum of Art to prevent other people from looking in.

5. Shelter from the Elements

Whether hot or cold, your tent is able to shield you from the elements. Being under a tent on a real hot day allows you to stay many degrees cooler. It also allows you the option of enjoying your surrounding environment by only having a canopy top without any walls or by using clear or cathedral walls. Tenting with walls and heaters also allows you to stay warm and dry on a cold, rainy day.

Rain was pouring down intermittently on this event from the outside. But, on the inside, guests stayed warm and dry without a care to the weather conditions outside.

6. Focal Points

Your entire event doesn’t have to be under 1 tent. If there are designated areas of your event that you want to be the focal point(s), you can use a tent as an aesthetic way of drawing attention to it.

This event had guests mingling outside, but used white and clear top tents as focal points for the lounge areas.

Tents are not only constrained to the outdoors. We swagged this canopy with fabric right above the dance floor inside a large building.

There are definitely many great reasons for renting a tent and many beautiful locations in the Bay Area for tent rentals. We hope this has given you some ideas to get you started in planning your next tented event!

    My husband and I are planning to hold our wedding reception in an open field. Well, you made a great point that having tents would allow our guests to enjoy the party in privacy. That’s why we’re planning to rent some tents.

    I’m going to be hosting a big party in a field, so I want to get something to make it more interesting. It makes sense that I would want to rent a tent for this! That seems like a great way to add some structure to the area.

    I like how you said that tents allow your guests to enjoy the party in privacy. My wife and I are wanting to throw a party for our son and we want to make sure that his party is private. I’ll be sure to talk to my wife about possibly renting a tent for the party.

    I like what you said about using rental tents to add focal points for your event. My sister has been telling me about how she’s been planning her wedding reception recently. I’ll share this information with her so that she can look into her options for professionals who can help her with this.

    My high school friends and I are planning to have a mini party at Jen’s this coming weekend. Since we don’t have much budget to rent a place for the party that can accommodate twenty people, we thought that considering party rental services would be a good idea. I like what you said about the flexibility of renting a tent. As you’ve mentioned, they can come in all different sizes, which means they can cater to a huge number of guests.

    It’s helpful that you said you can enjoy an intimate and private party no matter where you are if you get a tent. My sister is getting married and she wants to do it right in her backyard. I think renting a tent would be a good idea.

    My sister wants to have her wedding outdoors. I love how you said that renting a tent can give you shelter from the elements. I’ll suggest that she look into renting a tent for her wedding.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT REGARDING COVID-19

The Stuart Rental Company’s highest priority is the health and safety of our team members, clients, and their families. Therefore, we are taking this opportunity to set forth how we are managing our business operations during the COVID-19 pandemic.

We will continue to update our policies as we learn more from the medical and scientific community, including new information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. We encourage everyone to frequently refer to the CDC website for the latest on how best to contain and mitigate the impact of the virus.

OUR SHOWROOM IS OPEN

LIMITED HOURS: 10:00AM to 2:00PM, MON-FRI

CLEANING AND SANITATION

We have enhanced the process and increased the frequency of our equipment cleaning, spending extra attention to regularly contacted surfaces.

  • – We are using the same chemicals on our equipment as hospitals use to disinfect their surfaces.
  • – In addition, we continue to launder all linens and disinfect dishware, silverware, and glassware with high-temp commercial dishwashers, industrial sanitizers and chemicals.
  • – These processes are done in compliance with the latest California state and federal CDC guidance to ensure our products are COVID-19-free following their cleaning.
  • – We are cleaning our showroom, offices, warehouse and common areas with greater frequency using hospital-grade disinfectants, paying special attention to frequently touched surfaces.
  • – We have curtailed all non-essential employee travel to minimize the risk of spreading the virus to our staff and among the general population and we have instructed employees who feel ill to stay home and consult their healthcare provider.

 

DELIVERY AND PICKUP PROTOCOL: 10:00AM to 2:00PM, MON-FRI

We are keeping our teams current on all recommendations and updates from the CDC as well as instituting new safety precautions for the pickup and delivery of any product.

  • – We have equipped our delivery and pickup teams with masks, nitrile gloves, hand sanitizer, and EPA-approved cleaners/disinfectants specifically recommended by the CDC in its Environmental Cleaning and Disinfection Recommendations.
  • – During pickups and deliveries, we wipe all products with all-purpose cleaning solution and a disinfecting cleanser.
  • – Nitrile gloves are carefully disposed of after every pickup.
  • – We have instructed our staff to follow CDC-recommended social distancing guidelines, including avoiding shaking hands and using proper hygiene etiquette including hand washing.

We are committed to doing what is necessary to curtail the impact of COVID 19 and will therefore update these policies as the CDC and local and state health officials issue more guidance.
