Spring has sprung and Grimes Events & Party Tents is excited to get to work this season! Spring is one of the best times to have an outdoor event and we have all your rental needs! We have tent rentals and everything underneath them for the perfect outdoor event.

Tents

Grimes Events & Party Tents offers various tent sizes for any function. Tents are a great option for outdoor events as they are a shelter that can be placed anywhere and filled with any type of décor! Options are truly endless when creating an event under a party tent!

Moving into spring, we love to see our Clear-Top Frame Tents in action. The clear-top tent is perfect for any outdoor event you may be hosting. This tent style allows all the sunlight into your event and removes the need for artificial lighting!

High-Peak Festival Tents are also popular in the spring as their height adds a level of space that captivates the guests and is perfect for outdoor events. The space of the tent leaves room for sunlight to fill the tent, while also creating a grand space for a large outdoor event.

Having an outdoor event doesn’t mean being limited to a single space. Pipe and Drape can be added to any party tent to create sections or rooms that can add an element of exploration and dimension to your space.

Outdoor seating

Chairs are not all created equal when it comes to outdoor events. Depending on the density of the soil, some chair rentals hold up better compared to others. Grimes Events & Party Tents offers a variety of chairs that function perfectly on soil, grass, and cement.

Our Samsonite Chair is the classic durable folding chair. This seat comes in black and white to match any décor your event has.

The Chiavari Chair is a crowd favorite. This chair is strong and beautifully decorated, coming in white, black, clear, and gold. This is a more upscale step up from the classic Samsonite chair and is perfect for weddings or any sophisticated functions.

Lounge furniture is something that can change the essence of the event. Lounge furniture is usually more comfortable and comes in modern styles that catch the guest’s eyes. Transform your space into a comfy bohemian relaxation area in the day, or a space that emits a upscale, nightlife experience in the evening. Products like our Hi- Tops tables, Lounge Ottomans, and LED Cubes, make up some of the aspects to a functional outdoor lounge area outdoors.

Luxury Restroom Trailers

When it comes to hosting an outdoor event the restroom for guests can often be overlooked. This can be a tricky situation when you are not at an indoor venue that has a facility included. Grimes has this covered for you with our variety of luxury restroom trailers! Depending on the size of your event, we offer 9 stall, 5 stall, 3 stall, and single stall trailers for guests to use the restroom in comfortable and clean quarters.

Stage and Flooring

While a stage and flooring aren’t a necessity for an amazing and functional outdoor event, it is a great option to incorporate in the layout of a tent space.

A stage can act as a focal point of an event as it’s the most elevated level of the space. Here, you can add an extravagant design element, a DJ, or other source of entertainment. If your event entertainment or a host, a stage will level up the experience.

Flooring is also a great addition to an outdoor event. This not only offers a stable and smooth ground for guests to comfortably walk, it also doubles as a dance floor. This communicates to guests that dancing is encouraged!

Catering Rentals

Food and drinks are a crucial part of any event – big or small. If you want to develop your catering menu and refreshments, Grimes Events & Party Tents can provide you with all your catering rental needs. We provide an array of catering rentals that keep food hot, cold, fresh, or fried!

Must Have Vendors For Your Next Event

February 24, 2022 Shawn Budd

Just like magic, an event seems to come together in the eyes of a guest, but the true magicians are the various vendors who piece them together to create an enchanting ambiance. It truly takes a village to bring someone’s vision to life. Consider the following vendors for your next celebration to take your function to the next level.

Event Planner

If you want someone to organize your event, hiring an event planner is a great option. Event planners have experience in all aspects of creating a cohesive event, starting with the planning that goes into it. They are also a great source of connections. Your event planner will already have contacts for credible vendors to utilize.

Catering

A catering vendor ensures a quality hassle-free food service experience for everyone. Not only is the vendor qualified in gourmet cooking for large groups of people, but it elevates the event’s atmosphere. Often, caterers will create a menu based on food preferences or on the theme of the event. They provide an entire service that includes cooking, plating, serving, and more. Caterers will discreetly hover during the event to ensure all food handling needs are met.

Entertainment

A must-have at any function is entertainment. Entertainment can come in many forms. The best events have an established plan for entertainment for the duration of the event. This can be a speaker, a show, a dance, or even party games. The most important form of entertainment is a great DJ. Yes, the DJ brings the party to life with music but also works as a guide or host during the event.

Event Rentals

An event would not be a functional space without party rentals. Vendors like Grimes Events & Party Tents are essential in creating a space that is efficient for guests to sit, dance, eat, relax, and overall enjoy the celebration. Party rentals can include party tents, tables, chairs, lighting, flooring, staging, portable restrooms, décor, and much more. Guests need tables and chairs to be seated, a DJ might need a stage to set up on, and dancing can be made intentional with a specialized dance floor. Event rentals create the foundation of the event in its entirety and everything else comes secondary to building out the space.

Décor

Now that the bones of the event are built out, vendors that specialize in décor are needed to transform the look and feel of the space. The décor team is responsible for bringing the event holders’ vision to life. They will establish colors, themes, lighting, florals, decorations, and any personal touches. The décor will be one of the first aspects to stand out at any event. Décor can be created by one vendor or a group of them where each vendor specializes in a niche area of decorating. For example, your event planner could handle linens and balloons while a florist would focus on creating flower arrangements to dress the space.

Photographers

Did the event even happen if there are no photos? Having a photographer or videographer is especially important at any event. These functions take great efforts to create so capturing these memories to look back on is essential. It also helps the many vendors who participated, highlight their products and services.

If you are looking to create a well-rounded function, big or small, having a variation of these vendors is essential to getting the most out of your celebration. Investing in a caterer, party rentals, entertainment, event decorator, and a photographer will yield the best experience for everyone in attendance.

As a host, you can relax knowing all your event needs are met and your guests are accounted for. Get a head start on planning your next spring event! For any party rentals or event needs, contact Grimes Events & Party Tents today!

A Message From Grimes Regarding COVID-19

March 25, 2020 Shawn Budd

We understand that this is a stressful and difficult time for everyone in our community and we all have to get creative!

Here at Grimes Events & Party Tents, we are fortunate to own a state-of-the-art, high temperature, environmentally friendly tent washing machine. We are able to keep our tent tops perfectly white without any mold or mildew.

In addition to washing our own inventory, in the past we have serviced a select number of clients, like the FL Department of Health and Rapids Water Park in cleaning and sanitizing their tops.

During this slow time, we are offering to clean, sanitize, dry, and fold any tents, cabanas, outdoor furniture/boat/RV covers. We offer 12 and 24-hour turnaround. Additionally, we offer sewing and repair services.

Tops that are regularly cleaned and maintained with the proper techniques don’t just look better, they remain in good condition for longer, giving you a better return on investment.
