PartyTime Rentals, Inc.

Rain on your wedding day, every bride’s worst nightmare. Most weddings are booked months in advance, so it is almost impossible to predict what the weather will be like on your special day, especially if you live on the east coast. With an increasing number of weddings being held outside, away from the traditional venue, a wedding planner needs to plan for every eventuality and this means that tents are an essential component to the big day.

Rain on your wedding day is not the only time you may want to rent a tent. Even on a sun-filled day, a tent will be a welcome addition to the proceedings offering shade and a cool place to congregate and enjoy a meal.

Before you book a rental tent, it is important to know how many guests you expecting and calculate, if the guests are going to be seated at your reception, how many tables and chairs you will require.

We will be happy to help you arrange your reception and find the perfect sized tent for your event. We can even help you with the layout, seating arrangements and calculate the width of the aisle, the spacing between the food and beverage tables, the spacing between the rows of chairs, every detail. Simply contact us and we will be happy to be of service!

Rain on your wedding day: Good Or Bad Luck?

If it were to rain on your wedding day, consider that not every culture sees this as a bad thing. In agricultural societies, rain on your wedding day is a symbol of fertility because it represents healthy crops. In the Hindu religion, rain is also considered good luck and symbolizes a strong union. The idea of “tying the knot” comes from the Hindu religion and because a wet knot is harder to untie than a dry one, if it rains on your wedding day, you will be inseparable. If nothing else, these facts can make for good conversation if it did rain on your wedding day!

Party Time Rentals is proud to offer a stunning array of rental tents that will see you and your guests comfortable during the reception no matter what the weather. We not only provide world-class tent rental to the Hudson Valley and Connecticut areas, we also provide everything you could possibly need to rent for your wedding reception. Renting on your big day is the financially wise decision. After all, it is highly unlikely you will have a need for 20 vases and countless strands of lights when your wedding reception is over!

Trends for wedding rentals

As we begin to take bookings for next year’s wedding rentals, we are seeing a definite trend in ceiling drapes, arches and bistro-style tables. Bistro tables are great for those less formal weddings that will be serving appetizers and tapas, instead of the more traditional sit-down fare and want to encourage their guests to interact and mingle.

If you are having the traditional sit-down wedding reception, we advise using chiavari chairs to add some elegance to the room instead of the standard folding or banquet chairs.

Whether sunshine or rain on your wedding day, party time rentals has everything you could possibly need to make your wedding reception a success, no matter what the weather.
