GUIDE TO CHOOSING
A TENT
Lasting Impressions Event Rentals offers a variety
of tent sizes and styles to accommodate
every type of event. Our sales staff
will gladly help you choose the style
and size of tent to suit your needs.
Below are some guidelines to consider.
Size
- Maximum seating can be accomplished by
using 72" round tables or making long
rows of banquet tables. Here are a few
minimum space requirements to be used when
determining the size of a tent:
|
Cocktail Party (standing) |
6-7 square feet per person |
|
Cocktail Party (some seated) |
10 square feet per person |
|
Dinner Seating |
10-14 square feet per person |
|
Theater-style Seating |
6 square feet per person |
|
Classroom Seating |
6-8 square feet per person |
| Dance
Floor Size |
2-4 square feet per person |
| Stage
for a band |
at least 20 square feet per
person |
| Bar |
150 square feet |
|
Buffet |
at least 100 square feet |
CAD Design
- Our sales staff can make a CAD drawing
of your event showing seating, buffets,
dance floor, etc. This allows for a
visual depiction of your projected event
and helps eliminate obstacles and
unforeseen problems.
Style
- The style of tent used will be based
on three factors -- appearance, space
restrictions, and installation
restrictions. Each style of tent has its
advantages and disadvantages. For
example, some must be staked while
others can rely on concrete or permanent
anchors. Some tents offer a "wedding
look" while others may be better for a
festival or corporate event. A site
inspection will determine which tent is
right for you.
Site
Inspections - A tent
professional will visit your site to
review the area and help determine the
right options for you. He will also look
for obstacles which could prevent the
proper installation of a tent.
OUPS
- Anytime stakes are driven into the
ground, the Ohio Utilities Protection
Service must be contacted in order to
mark all underground utility lines. The
utility companies will mark their lines,
however it is the land owner's
responsibility to mark all private
lines, including sprinkler systems. We
prefer the area to be clearly marked
with flags or paint. If you have any
questions regarding OUPS marking, please
visit their website at
www.oups.org.
