Choosing the Right Tent, Flooring & Heaters for Your Event

When planning an outdoor event, getting the right shelter, flooring, and climate control can make all the difference in guest comfort—and in your peace of mind. At K&M Party Rentals & Decor, we carry a wide selection of tents, dance floors, and heaters so your event looks polished and runs smoothly, rain or shine.

1. Tent Sizes & Styles: What Fits Your Event Best?

We have tents in many sizes and styles to suit different guest counts, layouts, and aesthetics. Below are some of our top options and what they’re best for:

Tent Size / Type	Typical Use / Guest Capacity	Benefits & Considerations
10′ × 10′	Small gatherings, cocktail areas, registration booths, dessert or bar stations	Compact, economical, ideal when you only need a bit of covered space.
10′ × 20′	Intimate dinners, small ceremonies, food service zones	Offers more depth; can handle 2-3 banquet tables (depending on layout).
20′ × 20′ High Peak	Medium receptions, larger dining areas	The high-peak adds height and elegance; suitable for around 25–35 people seated (depending on table layout).
15′ × 30′ Pole Tent	Wedding receptions, mid-sized parties	Flexible layout, room for a dance floor, head table, etc.
40′ × 60′ Pole Tent	Large weddings, corporate events, big gatherings	Can house many guests, multiple table groupings, a generous dance floor, buffet lines.
40′ × 100′ Pole Tent	Very large events, galas, festivals	Max capacity, ideal for big setups with stage, lounge, catering, etc.

Note on Sidewalls & Wind Protection We also provide sidewalls to shield guests from wind or rain, giving you flexibility to open or close the sides depending on weather or desired ambiance.

Price Guide On our site, you’ll find rental costs like:

• Tent 10′ × 10′ – $100

• Tent 10′ × 20′ – $200

• Tent 20′ × 20′ High Peak – $485

• 40′ × 60′ Pole Tent – $ 2,300

(additional charges may apply for delivery, setup, sidewalls, etc.)

When choosing a size, always allow for extras: space for the dance floor, catering, a stage, or even spacing between tables. It’s better to err on the side of more room than to be cramped.

2. Flooring & Dance Floors: Solid Ground for Your Guests

A good tent is only part of the equation — you’ll also want a solid floor, especially if your site is uneven, grassy, or damp. Our dance floors and subfloor systems provide a safe, level, and attractive surface for guests.

Benefits of Installing a Dance Floor / Flooring System:

• Stabilizes footing and prevents heels from sinking (or guests slipping in mud after rain)

• Provides a clean, even foundation for tables, chairs, and decor

• Defines the entertainment area — visually separates the dance zone

• Adds elegance and completes the look of your tented space

We carry dance floors that can be fitted within your tent. You tell us the dimensions of the area you want floored , and we’ll configure the proper layout.

3. Heaters & Climate Control: Comfort No Matter the Weather

Even in summer, evening events can get chilly. In spring or fall, temperatures can swing wildly. That’s why having heaters (or cooling options) is key to keeping guests comfortable throughout your event.

4. Tips & Considerations When Booking

• Book early, especially for summer and fall dates — tents, dance floors, and heaters are in high demand.

• Site visit or photos: Send us pictures or allow us to visit your venue so we can assess the ground, slopes, access points, and power availability.

• Permits & restrictions: Some venues or municipalities require permits for large tents or propane equipment. Always check local rules.

• Contingency plans: Even in summer, rain or wind can happen. Having sidewalls and heaters on standby ensures you’re ready.
