HOW MUCH SPACE DO YOU NEED FOR EACH OF THE FOLLOWING?

A seated dinner with 5' round tables: 15 square ft per person. A seated dinner with 8' round tables: 12 square ft per person. Theater seating: 7 square ft per person. A dance area: 5 square ft per person. A bar area: 100 square ft. Speakers platform: 12 square ft per person. Bandstand: 10 square ft per person plus instruments.

WHAT ARE THE GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR THE FOLLOWING?

Banquet Style Seating: When using oblong tables, divide the room area (sq. ft.) by 12. When using round tables, divide the room area (sq. ft.)by 15. These figures are for maximum seating. If space is available for more comfortable seating, allow an extra 2 sq. ft. per person.

Classroom Style Seating: Divide student seating area (sq. ft.) by 10.

Theater Style Seating: Divide spectator seating area (sq. ft.) by 7.

If you need help determining the best style and size for your event, please contact one of our professional event planners.

WHAT IS THE DURATION OF MY RENTAL PERIOD?

The rental period for our tents is the same regardless of whether it's needed for one day or one week. If you're looking for a tent company nearby and need installation on a specific day, we can help. Simply let us know how many days before the event you would like installation.

DOES IT COST MORE TO INSTALL AND DISMANTLE ON WEEKENDS?

Yes. There are additional charges for service outside of normal business hours.

HOW ARE TABLETOP ITEMS RENTED? ARE THEY GROUPED SETS OR INDIVIDUAL PIECES?

Tabletop goods, such as china, glassware, and flatware, are sold individually rather than in sets. As a result, we ask that clients choose their preferred forks, knives, or spoons rather than a complete flatware set. Clients are also able to select the plates and bowls they want. In terms of glassware, we generally sell them by the rack. Rack sizes range from 16 to 36 inches in diameter. I always urge customers to purchase more than they require. Guests who don't reuse their glasses end up with a second one every time.

IN WHAT CONDITION DO RENTED ITEMS NEED TO BE RETURNED?

All china, glassware, and flatware do not need to be washed by the customer. They just need to be scraped of food or washed if necessary. We relieve clients of the burden of washing dishes. We also clean all linen rentals Nashville clients use so they don't have to.

WHAT SIZES OF TABLES ARE AVAILABLE AND HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN FIT AT SPECIFIC TABLES?

Clients are welcome to visit our Nashville tent company nearby showroom to discuss this more specifically for your unique situation, but as a general rule, the 6-foot banquet table accommodates 6-8 guests and the 8-foot banquet table works for 8-10 people. The 30-inch round is intended for 2-4 people, the 36-inch table is great for groupings of 4 people at each one, then the 48-inch round table accommodates 6-8 people, and finally, the 60-inch round table typically seats 8-10 people.

WILL NASHVILLE TABLE RENTALS COME WITH LINENS?

No, our linen rentals in Nashville are rented separately.
