Wishing for that perfect wedding can be a daunting task. There are few pros and cons of having indoor or outdoor wedding tent, therefore it is important to look at options before making a final call.

Renting a tent for wedding reception

• A tent is like a blank canvas where we can go for our choice of decor and theme we like as opposed to a ballroom. This can be a difficult decision considering there are many inspiring wedding options out there.
• Renting a tent for wedding provides an outdoor setting to all your photographs, like sunsets, garden and starry evening.
• You can hire a caterer at a lesser price and have the freedom to select what you like.
• A tent rental company can provide contacts of other vendors like light and sound system rentals, caterers, wedding DJs, etc.
• Unlike reception halls which are booked a year in advance, you don’t have to worry about renting out a tent in advance.
• The capacity to accommodate guests and hidden fees that come with a venue can be an expensive affair.

Opting for a ballroom/ reception hall

• You don’t have to worry about renting out every single item like plates, serveware, tables, chairs, etc. The caterer will have all the facilities you need, they have a coordinator and planner who not only helps you plan your D-day but helps you throughout the reception. Though you hire a caterer at a lesser price for a tented wedding, the costs will add up once you look into all the rentals unlike in a reception hall.
• You don’t have to worry about change in weather. Going for a tent for your reception means that you have been left at the mercy of weather God.
• Throwing wedding in a hotel venue saves you from exchanging emails, phone calls and follow-ups with many vendors. There will be no room for error.
• Depending on certain seasons, certain tent companies do not rent out because of harsh weather conditions. A venue is best option, especially during winter.
• Stress can be high if you are renting out tents for an outdoor reception in case turnout of guests is more. Security in a reception hall is far better than outdoor wedding. One doesn’t have to think about harmful pests also.
