Summer Party Rentals

The summer months offer beautiful weather that makes any outdoor event a huge hit. Make sure your summer party is set up for success by renting the right equipment!

Tents

There’s one thing we know for sure about Florida – it brings the heat! Between the intense sunshine and afternoon rain showers, every outdoor summer party should be prepared with a tent rental! Alone, tents offer shade and keep your guests dry in case of rain. However, when paired with tent accessories, such as side curtains, tents can transform an outdoor space into the perfect place to spend a summer day in Florida. At Grimes Events & Party Tents, we have a wide variety of tents including frame tents, pole tents, high peak tents, structural tents, and pop-up tents!

Lounge Furniture

Summer is all about kicking back and relaxing! Lounge furniture is the perfect way to ensure your guests have somewhere comfortable to sit, chat, and sip on their drinks. At Grimes Events & Party Tents, we have two types of lounge furniture available for rental. Our tufted lounge furniture allows you to mix and match corner pieces, center pieces, and ottomans to create the perfect layout. The Sobe lounge chair and sofa are great alternatives that offer a more modern look.

Air Conditioning

Making sure your guests are comfortable should be one of your top priorities when planning an event. Beat the heat this summer by renting cooling products along with your tent! Ceiling fans can be attached to the roof of your tent to save space and keep your event looking classy while also ensuring airflow throughout the space. We also offer Cool-A-Zone units for rental! These air conditioning units can lower the ambient temperature by 10 – 25 degrees. They are energy-efficient, easy to use, and do not require any special installation.

Restroom Trailers

Many summer events happen outdoors. Therefore, it’s important to consider the practical necessities like restrooms! If your event is being held outdoors, consider renting a luxury restroom trailer. Grimes Events & Party Tents is pleased to offer four variations of restroom trailers.

3 Stall Restroom Trailer: Private spaces, two women’s and one men’s, equipped with LED lighting, Bluetooth speakers, and individual sinks.

5 Stall Luxury Restroom Trailer: Two separate spaces, one with three women’s stalls, the other with two men’s stalls and two urinals.

9 Stall Restroom Trailer: Two separate spaces, one with five women’s stalls, the other with two men’s stalls and two urinals.

ADA Single Stall Restroom Trailer: Individual space accessible via ADA compliant ramp.

Each restroom trailer comes equipped with air conditioning and heating as needed, hot and cold running water, a self-leveling jack, and vinyl skirting.

There are plenty of advantages to renting your summer party equipment including cost efficiency and a variety of environmentally friendly options! Contact us today to see how we help make your summer event a success!

Drive-By Driveway Events

Many large events have been postponed or canceled because of COVID, but creativity has allowed us to continue celebrating special occasions! We have taken to providing our clients with opportunities to host socially distant events from the comfort of their driveway.

A Special Birthday

Recently, we helped one of our special clients celebrate their 10th birthday with a driveway event. Guests could drive by, wishing our client a happy birthday, or stop in for a socially distanced party. We transformed their driveway into a multi-colored, tie-dye extravaganza fitted with a tent, tables, goodie bags, and cupcakes! By partnering with GoFar Balloons and Bella Fiori Flower Walls, we were able to create a beautiful experience for all the attendees. Drive-by or stop in events such as these are great for celebrating anniversaries, graduation parties, birthday parties, and more while taking into consideration social distancing, health, and safety.

Host a Driveway Party

Provide your guests with a remarkable experience as they help celebrate your special day from your driveway! Whether you are looking for a casual get-together or elaborately themed party, converting your driveway for such a celebration is easy. Tents, tables, and lounge furniture can be set with ample distancing for mingling and an open house styled event. Include carpets, lighting, and textures to give your set up a unique theme.

Have a special occasion coming up? Contact us at 561-853-8368 to learn more about how we can provide you with creative solutions to help you carry on with the festivities of life!

Grimes Events & Party Tents Looks To Get Florida’s Restaurants Up And Running

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced on May 4th that many restaurants in the state could reopen with full outdoor seating captivity, while indoor seating is capped at 25% percent. While restaurants embraced the good news, they might not have enough outdoor seating to fit the need and demands of hungry customers. This is where Grimes Events  & Party Tents, South Florida’s premier source for all types of tents and outdoor seating can help.

 Tents

Frame tents are ideal for restaurants due to their traditional classic design, cost efficiency and ability to easily expand to fit the needs of the business. Grimes offer two sizes ‘6-20’ Wide and ‘30-40’ Wide. Both sizes can put close to the restaurant as long as the surface is relatively leveled.  Grimes is not just limited to Frame Tents, they also have side tents among many others.

Tables And Chairs

When it comes to chairs Grimes has a large selection of chairs to fit your restaurant’s needs. Let Grimes Events & Party tents help you get back up and running today! Feel free to give us a call at our main at 561. 853- 8368. If you are located in Boca or Deerfield please call us at 561- 921-7873. We are even available by email at [email protected]

5 Common Questions About Event Rental Installations

When considering tents for weddings and events, it’s important to know what to expect with the installation process, specifically timeline and pricing. We know that the foundation for a successful event lies in the preparation and planning, so we want to help simplify the installation process by answering the 5 most common questions that we receive.

Do you set up and break down the rental products?

Our delivery/ pick-up teams will set up and break down several of our rental products at no additional charge, including tents, bars, cooking equipment, dance floors, staging, and lighting. We can perform chair setup and breakdown, as well as table setup and breakdown services at an additional cost. Those services can be added at any point in the process before delivery.

What is your standard rental period?

The price of our rental equipment includes a 72-hour rental period. Should you need to keep our products longer than 72 hours, additional charges will apply.

Do you deliver?

Yes, we do offer delivery. When you request a delivery, you will be given either a morning (8 am-12 pm) or an afternoon (1 pm-6 pm) delivery window. Delivery rates will vary depending on delivery specifics and location.

What do I need to do to get ready for you to install the tent rental?

When installing a tent, the first step our crews take is to spread it flat on the ground in the area where it will be. Please have this area completely clear of obstructions before we arrive at the job site.

How will my tent be secured?

Grass – when setting up your tent, we typically drive a 42” stake into the grass in 2 places at each corner and 1 at each additional leg. The stakes will be approximately 4 feet away from the tent, with a white strap running from the top of the tent to the stake itself.

Asphalt – We will have to drill 1.5” diameter holes at each place that we need a stake. We can then drive our stakes in the ground, just the same as if we were setting up on grass. When we come back to pick up the tent, we will patch all holes with either asphalt patches or a plug.

Concrete – We will drill ½” diameter holes to secure your tent with concrete anchors. Our straps will run from the top of the tent down to the concrete anchors. When we pick up the tent, we will patch all holes with concrete patches, however we cannot guarantee an exact color match.

Other – If your tent is going on any surface that we are not allowed to drill through or drive stakes, we secure your tent with either cement weights or 55-gallon water barrels. To ensure that we have the proper equipment on-site, please contact us prior to booking your event. There will be an additional fee to secure any tent that we cannot stake.

From tents for weddings and events to table rentals (and everything in between!), Grimes Events & Party Tents is South Florida’s premier event rental company. If you are interested in hiring us for your next event, contact us at 561-853-8368.
