When it comes to entertaining your guests outside, you want to have as much control as possible. Unfortunately, Mother Nature has a mind of her own, and despite all the planning you’ve done – that unexpected thunderstorm or relentless sun can put a damper on your event.
In addition, you might want to keep a private gala – well, private, and unexposed to curious onlookers. Party tents are, by far, the smartest solution for making sure your reception, ceremony, class reunion, or company party remains discreet and protected from the elements.
Party tents are also known as marquees or canopies, and are available in a variety of sizes, styles, colors, and fire resistant fabrics to suit your needs. If you’re not sure which size to order, many vendors offer modular extensions to expand the tent area. Complete set-up kits and basic ground attachments are often standard with party tent and storage tent deliveries. Additional solid and tested ground attachments like anchors, nails or storm kits are available for an added cost.
There are various options for customizing your party tent should you need separating walls for a catering area, end walls with windows, or if you need to provide tent heaters during a blustery fall occasion. In fact, you can specifically purchase a catering marquee. You can even merge several tents together for a grand event with connecting gutters that serve to redirect the rain in a downpour. Some party tent vendors offer stylish marquees complete with distinctive doorways with an Arabian tent entrance.
These protective canopies not only serve a functional purpose, they indicate an event. The French often refer to party tents as “barnums” which carries a strong association with the infamous circus creator, P.T. Barnum. Everyone knows the circus is in town when they see the enormous, festive marquee. A sense of mystery and curiosity fills the air in anticipation of seeing what’s inside the “big top”.
In the same way a marquee signals an event and is a catalyst for onlookers, the tent can keep those very same inquiring minds at arms length with just a few simple fabric walls. The party tent simultaneously beckons, yet symbolizes “stay away” – a marvelous trick for creating your buzz worthy festivity.
Party tents aren’t just for parties anymore though. Now you can purchase storage tents, and portable garage tents or carports. Online distributors offer a plethora of cost and size options, and almost every accessory and spare part you could dream of when it comes to cleaning, maintaining and reinforcing your canopy — whether it’s for your summer party tent or for protecting that vintage car in the portable garage. You’ve got it covered – party or no party.
