Tents for weddings come in two basic structures: pole tents and frame tents. However, there are multiple additional options, including marquee tents, sailcloth tents, and clear tents to find the best fit for your big day. Tension Pole Tents Tension pole tents have center poles that hold up the roof. They rely on a pattern of stakes and tie-downs to achieve stability, so they need to be set up in an area with softer ground, such as grass, rather than concrete. With the large poles in the center, they create a tall tower ceiling, adding an element of elegance to a tented wedding. Frame Tents Frame tents are clear span structures that have metal frames to support the roof, with an open space beneath the canopy. They are self-supporting and can be weighted down if the ground does not allow for staking. Frame tents generally require interior draping to conceal the internal framework, which can increase the cost of the tent rental, but it also gives a great opportunity to add luscious draping and string lights. Marquee Tents A marquee tent combines the concept of a pole tent and a frame tent to build a beautiful structure. The freestanding metal frame creates height for a tall roof. Plus, there’s the added benefit of no poles in the middle to work around. Sailcloth Tents Sailcloth tents utilize poles to create a structural base to pair with beautiful sailcloth material. But remember, because it is essentially a pole tent, it needs to be set up in an area that can have stakes put into the ground. As for decorating? The poles and the fabric for sailcloth tents are beautiful in their own right, so the structure can be left as is. Clear Tents For a more modern look, a clear tent is the way to go. It’s set up with a metal frame, just as a basic frame tent. However, with a clear tent, you’ll have a transparent canopy, allowing plenty of light to shine in. This option can be left simple and undecorated to let nature shine around you, or it can be enhanced with beautiful lighting.

Whether you are producing a small event or a big event, having a tent will always come in handy. Here are 10 of the best reasons why. 1. Weather.As we all know, weather can be so unpredictable. If you are planning for an event in advance it’s impossible to know what the weather will be like the day of. Having a tent can save you and your guests from the rain and give you shade from the bright sun. 2.Food.Having a tent can help to create a space and protect your food from outdoor temperatures. 3. Customize.Having an event with a tent means that you can customize the layout of your event space. Need multiple levels? No problem. Need several rooms inside one giant space? Sure, why not. Do you want clear walls and ceilings so that your indoor event will look and feel as if it were outdoors? Sounds good to me. 4. Atmosphere.Think of a tent as a blank canvas. With the right décor, it will allow you to create any mood you want your event to have whether you want it to be elegant, dramatic, or even casual and relaxed. Whatever the mood, it all starts with the tent. 5. Location.One of the best qualities of a tent is that you can reasonably place it anywhere you need to. No need to limit yourself, dream big. 6. Bugs.Everyone hates mosquitoes. We all know you’re lying if you say you don’t. A tent with walls will keep those pesky bugs away, saving your guests from a weeks worth of itchiness. 7. VIP.Certain events require a separate place for VIP guests to gather and be entertained. A tent can definitely provide this place if there isn’t one available. 8. Size.The beauty about tents is that they come in all shapes and sizes. It doesn’t matter how many guests you have because there will always be a tent size that can accommodate it. 9.
