One of the first questions we get when people contact us is, "what is the price?" Everyone is looking for the best value. However, there are many variables in tent pricing. We have a wide range of tent sizes. Any rental of up to three days does not increase the price. However, renting longer than three days will increase the price incrementally. Also, your distance from our location can change the price as well. For this reason, we don't list our prices on our website. As a starting point, 80% of the weddings we serve cost between $350 and $5,000 total. This includes delivery, installation, all the accessories, removal and tax.

As you're comparing and looking at tent rental prices, remember that value is about more than just price. A great tent company provides:

  1. Knowledgeable, courteous, professional staff

So you're planning an event, and you're thinking of holding it outdoors. You just don't know where to start. Here's a place to start.

  1. Choose a date. If you'd like to see the average weather for a given date, look here.

  2. Create a guest list. This will help you estimate the number of guests who will attend. On average about 80% of the people you invite will attend. Will they all be there at one time or will it be a drop-in?

  3. Choose a location. It can be your backyard, a park, a bed and breakfast, the home of a friend or family member, or another venue.

  4. Research vendors for tents, other rentals, catering, event planning and entertainment.

  5. Expect the best weather, but plan for the worst. If you plan to have any portion of the event outside, have a backup plan to add another tent or move indoors in case of rain.

  6. Plan the details:

    1. Lighting

    2. Heating or cooling

    3. Tent layout

    4. Tables and chairs

    5. Linens

    6. Flooring

    7. Restrooms

    8. Power

  7. Enjoy your event.
