For most planning a wedding at home they need a tent that can hold everything.  Dinner, dancing, food line, head table, bar, lounge for example.  Don't worry we help you pick a tent size specific to you.  Then things like chairs, tables, linens come next.  Of course you need a restroom.  After that we call the rest add-ons.  Maybe high tops, sweetheart farm table, vendor coordinator, dinnerware, fans, coffee.  Yes, we also can provide all of these and more!

Our tents range from 40'x40' to 40'x120'.

It's typically installed over grass two days before the wedding.  It has center poles every 20' holding the canopy way up in the air.  Quite an impressive structure! 

​

The side poles are placed every 10'.  They're wood, look so nice and are 7' high.  Straps hook to the top of the side pole and go out 6' at an angle to the ground where a 40" stake holds the strap in place at ground level.  Once all the straps are tight the canopy becomes smooth and taught.  It's now ready to protect all the items underneath. 

We install our tents two days before the wedding.  That means you have one day to place things under the tent and arrange the tables.  If you book a restroom trailer that arrives the morning of the wedding along with other day of services you may have.  Tear down happens on average two days post wedding so you have time to clean up.  Install can take 3-7hrs depending on the size of the tent and add-on equipment you have reserved. 

We're located in Stillwater, MN.  If you're from another state we're available in Wisconsin and depending on the date Iowa. 

​

For the rest of you who are locals our normal service area is 1hr from Stillwater.  Please contact us if further away. 

When contacting us we assume you have questions.  We don't expect someone to say I want to book right now.  It's highly encouraged to ask questions so you understand.  If something doesn't make sense be honest and say I need more help understanding this. 

If we have a phone conversation, don't feel rushed we're happy to chat as long as you need.

It's hard and taxing on the brain trying to figure it all out.  Here is a heads up!

Most companies are not wedding specific like us.  Most don't have as nice of equipment.  Most don't have all the equipment you need so you may have to use multiple vendors.  Most don't come back on the wedding day to serve.  Most don't offer full setup of all equipment.  Most don't have one point of contact through the entire process.  Most if not all don't have the experience like us.

​

Have you ever done pickup orders at a local retailer?  They bring it to your car and put it in the trunk.  We're similar in the feeling of ease and convenience you receive after hiring us to do the work for you. 

Wind is the most common pesky thing in regards to decor.

Start dinner no later than 5:30 PM.  

You could just have a sweetheart table.

Put "chat with guests" in your timeline. 

Don't spend all day with your photographer.

Plan elements in the day that reflect the both of you and your interests/story.

Guests have a hard time putting their phone down.  Suggest a phone fast. 

The elderly may be concerned how to get around.  Plan for it.

Listen to your DJ/Band before booking.

Skip the gift opening or brunch the day after.  You will be tired.  Instead, host a welcome party a day or two before. 

Your mom and dad are so proud of you! 

Will my property work is a common question.  We serve backyards, farms, cabins, and orchards for example.  Things we look at is property access, how flat the tent site is, how close to utilities like power and water, trees, obstacles, ceremony location, parking area, and other logistical questions.  We don't set up on public land. 

We have been through just about everything in regards to weather but that's because we're out every weekend and have been serving for years.  The most common weather related factor most forget about is the wind.  We can block it with sidewalls but a nice breeze is wonderful.  The issue can come with decor falling over on the tables.  The fix?  Test all your decor outside in the wind months before the wedding.  

​

Please reach out with your other weather related questions.

When someone new contacts us for the first time the conversation may go like this.

-Tell me more about the property.

-How many guests are you thinking of inviting.

-What things would you like under the tent so I can see what size tent would be a good fit. 

-Have you considered add-ons?

-What random questions do you have.

-What things are most important to you.

​

They may ask about booking.

-We create an invoice to look at.

-We visit the property to measure and chat with you.

-You approve the invoice.

-You sign the contract.

-Send in the 25% deposit.

​

Can I update the invoice after booking?

Of course you can and most do in the weeks or months that follow.  The last time you can update your guest count for example is 10 days before the wedding during our phone meeting with you.

Once you get an overall feel for the big items like a tent, the smaller rental & services come into play.  You may need chairs, tables, restroom trailer, generators, dance floor, linens for the tables, someone to coordinate your other vendors, dinnerware.  These are called add-ons.
