Visualizing Before You Rent
Our 20×20 can host forty diners seated or up to fifty attendees for presentations, though floor plans with buffets reduce that capacity, 30×60 tents support 150 banquet chairs yet compress to 120 when you need open areas for dancing, a 40×80 marquee serves 200+ guests, complete with buffets, bar areas, and mingling zones, and detailed layout schematics we provide help you test seating and service zones before you commit.
Accessories Affect Footprint
Sidewalls, liners, and chandeliers enhance ambiance but require extra clearance around tent perimeters, helping you factor in lighting rigs, staging, and flooring to avoid last-minute reconfigurations. Custom floor systems and risers demand additional tent size and anchoring strategies, helping you finalize quotes that cover every element in one transparent package.
Matching Tent Types to Event Styles
Small garden parties and intimate gatherings pop beneath 10×20 or 15×30 canopies, while elegant weddings and quinceañeras in Santa Clara soar beneath 30×60 high-peaks or 40×80 sailcloth tents, featuring side curtains, hardwood floors, and lighting rigs.
