Rent It: The Perfect Personalized Wedding Venue

(ARA) - If you want the beauty of an outdoor location for your wedding without the worry about the weather, the perfect place can be elusive. Expand your venue possibilities by creating the wedding of your dreams.

Whether it's your backyard or your favorite park, you pick the spot -- and rent everything you need to create your perfect dream wedding. Rental businesses have beautiful tent structures to create the venue, as well as everything you need to make it beautiful and comfortable.

Huge tents and elegant canopies come in wedding white and many also come with clear tops -- thus allowing guests access to the drama of a sunset or a sparkling night sky. Rental options also include sophisticated lighting, fine linens, china and flatware, dance floors, bars, stages, even flooring for the tent and portable kitchens for the caterer , the list continues. And it's all available for you to personalize your wedding day.

Whether formal or casual, your wedding can be completely your design. Make an impression by choosing table linens in your wedding colors, or go with all-white, then add chair covers with a bow-tie sash and matching napkins in accent colors. Be sure to ask for sample swatches of the linens so you can coordinate colors with your bridesmaid dresses and flowers. Add your choice of china and glassware to the arrangement for each table and get a rich and sophisticated setting.

According to the American Rental Association, many rental businesses offer personalized service through certified event rental professionals on staff who are trained to help you choose the right rentals to make your themed dream wedding come true.

Rental professionals will help ease the tension of pre-wedding set up with their knowledge and experience. Many businesses even help you throughout the event as well, keeping it on track and flowing smoothly. "We offer on-site staffing for the support of generators, which provide lighting, air-conditioning and fans -- all are a part of the execution of the event," says Matt Fitzgerald, director of the national rental program, Chicago Party Rental. "As an all-service provider, we serve their needs and lend advice based on experience."

How do you decide on a venue?

Once you have the date, time, location and approximate number of people you will invite, consider a theme and the atmosphere you might want to create. Before you put a non-refundable deposit on the unique venue, talk to an event rental expert. He can assess the site for things like power accessibility, ground water issues, or overhead power lines that may interfere with your vision of a tall tent, among other situations. A rental professional has the background and experience to help you make an informed decision.

What if you have the perfect spot but don't know what theme to go with?

A rental professional can show you everything that is available to help you create the event of your dreams. Ask for photos of other events and search the Internet for examples of decorated tents. You'll find elaborate photos of tents with tent liners, swagging and décor in all colors and themes at www.RentalHQ.com.

All events, no matter how big or small -- even for the Oprah's or Trump's of the world -- include rental businesses.

Tent Event Tips

Make sure you give the rental shop -- and yourself -- enough advanced notice. Depending on the time of year, the rental shop will need plenty of notice to reserve all the equipment you will need.

Look for a rental business that is a member of a business, professional or trade association, like the American Rental Association, which provides rental businesses with year-round education and training opportunities.
