A Tent Rental Can Save your Outdoor Party

 

Holding an outdoor party is an inexpensive way to gather together with family and friends and an excellent way to expand the guest list if desired. As a host, you try to plan for every contingency, but the one thing you can’t control is Mother Nature. The weather in South Florida has a way of changing quickly from scorching hot to drippy wet.

A tent rental can save an outdoor party from a weather disaster. Each tent will be able to accommodate a maximum number of individuals. Just be sure that you rent a tent that’s large enough to shelter everyone, or multiple tents if the guest list is large to prevent a feeling of claustrophobia.

Sun

A warm day is ideal for a party, but the hot sun beating down relentlessly is detrimental to the very young, the elderly, and those with chronic medical conditions. It’s really not fun for anyone else, either. A tent provides much needed shade to aid in preventing sunburn and sunstroke.

Heat

Even if the sun isn’t beating down on attendees, the type of extreme heat, combined with humidity, can result in a variety of illnesses. In hot, humid weather the body often has difficulty cooling itself despite frequent hydration. Statistics from the CDC show that 700 people die each year from heat-related conditions.

Higher temperatures also result in elevated ozone levels and that directly affects air quality and the ability to breathe. Additionally, the sun’s UV rays easily penetrate even dense cloud cover to cause a nasty sunburn.

Rain

A rainstorm can arrive quickly and with little warning. Renting a tent provides guests with a ready-made shelter from unexpected precipitation and the wind that often accompanies a storm. Be sure to obtain a tent that has sides that can be unfurled. Those sides will prevent rain from blowing into the tent and getting guests wet. When the storm abates, the sides can be rolled back up to let any breeze to blow through.

South Florida Winter is Perfect for your Outdoor Corporate Event

You don’t have to wait until the hot and humid days of summer to hold your corporate event. South Florida’s mild winter climate and temperatures are ideal for outdoor winter events. The winter months are also a great time to spread some cheer and enthusiasm during the early months of the year.

One of the advantages of holding your corporate event in Florida is obviously the mild weather. Florida is a popular getaway for anyone in northern states that want a break from the snow and South Florida is equally applicable for companies that want to reward staff with a relaxing interlude. The prospect of escaping the cold and coming to a warm climate is an incentive that will boost attendance.

Temperatures typically hover in the 70s from December through February. The state also offers a variety of amusements and recreational activities to enjoy when the business portion of the event are finished for the day. Attendees can golf to their heart’s content, go yachting, participate in a drive-through safari, or visit one of the many museums.

No matter what type of outdoor corporate event you’re planning, it will be easy to accommodate any need and any number of people. There are dozens of venues to conduct outdoor team-building events, hold an executive retreat, or launch a new product.

There’s no reason you can’t combine business and pleasure at your corporate event and it’s easy to do in South Florida. Even if the northern part of the state has less than optimal temperatures, South Florida will still be warm enough to conduct any corporate event outdoors in complete comfort.

There’s no shortage of luxury accommodations, transportation options, international travel hubs, and there’s a thriving nightlife for attendees to enjoy when the work is done. If you’re unsure where to hold your corporate event this year – wonder no longer. South Florida beckons.

Should I Get A Tent For My Event?

When planning an event, one of the most important decisions in the planning phase is whether to get a tent. As temporary structures, tents give event organizers more flexibility in terms of the number of guests that they can cater to. So, what are the factors to consider when deciding on whether to get a tent or not?

  1. How many guests are you expecting for your event?

The number of guests that are invited to your event determines whether you will need a tent. If you have a small guest-list (less than 50 people) then finding a location for your event is easy as they can fit into an average-sized conference room. It, however, becomes more difficult to find a suitable venue for your event when you are working with a larger guest list. If your event has 500 attendees, for example, then it is easier (and cheaper) to get a tent. Tents come in varying sizes depending on your needs. You can also use multiple tents for a single event if you are working with truly large numbers.

  1. What budget are you working with?

While it is easier to get an event venue when you are working with a smaller guest list, if you are working with a limited budget, then you might still need to get a tent. Hiring a tent is always cheaper than hiring a brick and mortar event venue. That’s because with a tent you can hire open outdoor spaces which are almost always much cheaper than indoor spaces.

  1. What weather are you expecting?

There are numerous benefits to having an outdoors event. However, if there is a rainfall forecast or extreme heat, then for your guests’ comfort you need to get a tent. Keeping your guests exposed to the hot sun for an extended period of time might be just an uncomfortable as letting them get rained on. Tents are important in protecting your guests from the elements. However, if the weather is expected to get more severe, opt for indoor spaces which are more protected.

  1. Do you need to place your guests into groups?

If your event requires the attendees to be grouped, then tents offer the best solution. If you are organizing a graduation event, for example, then you can have a separate tent specifically for the graduating class. If you are holding a job fair, then different companies can have their own separate tents. Similarly, in a large wedding, you might want the different family members to be in their own separate tents for their convenience.

So overall, the decision to get a tent or not to get a tent is determined by the nature of your event, your budget, and the expected weather.
