Basic Tents

From the files of an event planner

Party canopies are a lightweight covering designed to shelter against the sun or light rain; usually supplied as an inexpensive do-it-yourself alternative to a proper pole tent.
Pop-up canopies are small lightweight collapsable frames with a fabric cover designed as a do-it-yourself rental. They offer light protection and are used when quick set-up is needed.
Pole tents are more festive looking and less expensive than frame tents. They are the strongest and will stand up in very severe weather.
Frame tents are a vinyl cover over a metal frame and would be used if there is a need to have no centre poles.
Make certain the tent is placed on a level surface to ensure a safe floor. If this is not possible, the tent rental company can install a subflooring system that will create an event floor. If installing subflooring, budget for more time and expense.

If a more elegant atmosphere is needed the tent can be carpeted. Carpeting only works on a hard, level surface. Additionally there is port-o-path, which comes in a roll and saves time.

In the spring or fall heating is an inexpensive but necessary addition to keep guests comfortable. In the summer air conditioning can be provided.
Remember you are creating a room. Make sure there is easy access and exit. Fire extingushers should also be used where necessary.

Lighting can create the mood and ambiance that you want. A black floor can suck up lighting. All white can cause distracting reflections.
Tent liners are very expensive. Consider swagging the ceiling or using a canopy of balloons over the dancefloor instead. Pole drapes and centre pole wraps add the finishing touches.
