From cozy gatherings to grand celebrations, an event tent guarantees a seamless and unforgettable experience for you and your guests.

Backyard Tent Sizing

Determining the size of the backyard tent you need depends on several factors. First, consider the available space in your backyard and any specific dimensions or layout constraints. Next, think about the type of event you’re hosting and the number of guests you expect to attend. As a general guideline, a small backyard tent typically ranges from 10×10 feet to 20×20 feet and can comfortably accommodate around 10 to 40 guests for seated events or up to 60 guests for standing events. For larger gatherings or if you plan to include additional amenities like dining tables, dance floors, or entertainment areas, you may need a larger tent. Our team is here to help you assess your needs and find the perfect backyard tent size for your event, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable experience for you and your guests.

What size table, and what shape is best?

Choosing the right size and shape of tables for your event is essential to ensure comfort and functionality for your guests. Here’s a quick guide to help you make the best selection:

  1. Round Tables: Ideal for socializing and maximizing seating capacity, round tables are perfect for weddings, banquets, and other formal events. Among round tables, the 60-inch diameter is the most popular size, comfortably seating up to 8 guests. Smaller sizes, like 48 inches (seats 4 guests), are also available, catering to different event sizes and styles.

  2. Rectangular Tables: Rectangular tables are versatile and space-efficient, making them suitable for a wide range of events, from conferences to family dinners. Common sizes include 6-foot (seats 6-8 guests) and 8-foot (seats 8-10 guests) lengths. These tables are great for arranging in rows or creating long banquet-style setups.

  3. Cocktail Tables: Perfect for cocktail parties, receptions, and networking events, our cocktail tables come in two heights – standard (30 inches) and bar (42 inches). They typically have a 30-inch diameter and are ideal for encouraging mingling and conversation. Plan for approximately 1 cocktail table per 8-10 guests.
