She’s a TEN(T)

It's August, and it's HOT!! We're in the middle of summer, which leads to my most asked question - Do we need a tent for our wedding? Obviously, we've done some GORGEOUS weddings sans tent, but as a wedding planner, I will ALWAYS be pro-tent. Read on to see why:

I always love a simple white tent. They're the most affordable option, AND they protect your guests from rain OR sun. Trust me, in the middle of summer, having shade in the middle of an outdoor venue is a big deal.

Clear top tents are an easy way to protect your guests from rain, but also allow them to still feel outdoors. You can be sitting in the tent looking up at the trees and the lights, so it's a win-win if you want that outdoor vibe. The one downside to a clear top tent is they can be HOT. This pretty tent does nothing to protect you from the sun.

Sailcloth tents are the most luxurious of the 3 options, and its high price is reflective of its quality. The high peaks make the tent feel a lot bigger and more spacious, and it allows you to hang lighting much higher. The sailcloth protects from sun and rain, which makes this a great option if you want luxury, but also overall protection for your guests.
