Planning an event is exciting! With spring time on the horizon, we know you’re gearing up for holding an outdoor event after experiencing one of the coldest winters on record. For a spring or summer day, we have to think about how our guests can stay cool and comfortable. When planning an event in a backyard, park, field, or country club, a tent rental in Elkins Park is the perfect way to manage the entertainment.

Tents provide shade and an outdoor atmosphere while under cover. But, when is the right time to rent a tent for your event? Depending on the amount of attendees you’re expecting (any number over 25 is a good time to think about a tent), and the entertainment/food you’re providing, a tent can be the desired atmosphere for guests while they’re eating and socializing. Are you planning on a barbecue? You can definitely eat under the tent, but don’t barbecue there, as damage can occur from the flames.

Think about where the event is being held. When sponsoring a golf outing or gathering that is occurring outdoors, a tent should be something that is thought of (even if it’s in your yard!). A church gathering and picnic with the office are also types of events where a tent would be beneficial. Ask various questions to yourself. Do you envision a DJ at the event, or a dance floor for celebrations? You want to have a cover if the weather becomes a factor. Then think about how much room you need. Our tents are set up by the square foot to provide you with plenty of room.

When you’re considering a tent rental in Ivyland, our staff at Tents & Events will make your event enjoyable. We’ll assist in providing you with the perfect tent or canopy, complete with lighting, fans, table set-up, linens, chairs, and a stage or dance floor. If you want a tent for your guests, don’t limit yourself to just the tent. We have a full service staff to take care of all your needs throughout the party. Tents can be a perfect way to make your party festive and provide your guests a place to relax and socialize. You just have to know whether you’re throwing the right type of party for a tent.
