Take It to the Next Level with Stage & Dance Floor Rentals

Stages can be used for more than just music and dance floors can be used for more than just dancing. There are plenty of reasons why you should consider renting a stage or dance floor for your next event! They are versatile additions to any type of event, providing both fashion and functionality.

Stage Rentals

One of the main benefits of renting a stage is that it will help bring your guests’ attention to the focal point of the event. If you are hosting a live entertainment event, placing the entertainment on top of an elevated stage will help differentiate them from the crowd. If you are hosting an awards ceremony, honorees can be easily viewed as they receive their awards. At a fashion show, models can easily maneuver the crowd by strolling along a catwalk, giving everyone the best view of their outfits.

Did you know that we also offer pool cover stage rentals? These stages, either solid or transparent, can be secured over inground pools, giving your event’s décor the “wow” factor while simultaneously optimizing the event space.

Dance Floor Rentals

The dance floors we provide at Grimes Events & Party Tents are high-quality Modular Grid-Loc tiles. These special tiles are easy to install and uninstall, are scuff-resistant, easy to clean, and highly durable. Our Modular Grid-Loc tiles are often used in commercial settings such as yoga studios, trade shows, dance floors at special events, and so much more! We offer different styles including black and white tiles, white marble tiles, smoked oak tiles, and wood tiles. No matter what type of event you are hosting, we have the perfect floor to fit your needs!

At Grimes Events & Party Tents, we know better than anyone the advantages of party rentals. No matter how big or small your rental needs may be, we are here to help! Contact us today at 561-853-8368 to get started.

Outdoor Graduation Parties

Graduating is a major accomplishment and should always be celebrated! Outdoor parties are the perfect way to acknowledge this achievement with friends and family. When planning your party, consider the many advantages of renting your party equipment!

Cocktail Tables

Hi-top cocktail tables are great for outdoor parties. You can either plan to have your guests stand at these tables, making it easy for them to mingle, or pair them with barstools so that people can sit. Cocktail tables also offer a great opportunity to add pops of color to your decorations! Try draping linens over the tables using school colors to show your school spirit!

Lounge Furniture

Tents

At Grimes Events & Party Tents, we have tent rentals for every event, including graduation parties! For parties with smaller guest lists, our 10×10 pop-up tents and 12×12 high peak tents can be used individually or placed side by side. For parties with larger guest lists, our frame tents with a solid or clear top are known to be ideal for backyard parties. Make sure to consider all of the tent accessories you can rent as well, including flooring, fans, side curtains, and more!

Lights

Keep the party going into the evening hours by adding lights to your party space! There is no shortage of creative ways to use string lights as decorations. LED cubes and floating globes are not only a great way to provide light in the evening, but they also offer another opportunity to add pops of colors once the sun goes down!

Need to Drum Up Business? Consider a Promotional Event!

2020 was a difficult year for many, but small businesses were among those that took the hardest hit. If you’re a small business owner, you may be looking for creative ways to drum up business in 2021 now that restrictions are becoming more lenient.

Promotional events are a great way to reach new customers and spread awareness of your company. Take advantage of Florida’s warm weather and consider hosting an outdoor event to boost your small business this spring!

Community Sidewalk Sales

2020 brought out a true sense of community and solidarity in the face of the pandemic. The perfect way to carry this forward in 2021 is to collaborate with neighboring business owners and put on a sidewalk sale event! Set up outside your storefronts to allow potential customers to easily browse all the different products and services in the area. Local restaurants can provide free samples and local musicians can perform throughout the event, encouraging people to stick around longer and enjoy the evening!

Give Away Free Products

Everyone loves freebies, and the best part is – it’s also free promotion for your business! Consider setting up a tent outside your storefront to hand out free products and swag with your logo on it. This is a great way to reach new customers, as you can hook them on your product by providing samples and branded freebies to spread positive brand awareness.

VIP Events

While reaching new customers is always a priority, it’s also important to reward your current customers and show your appreciation for their loyalty. Consider hosting a VIP event that offers discounts or special offerings for your loyal customers, with free appetizers and drinks. If you are launching a new product or service, this VIP event is a great opportunity to give your customers an exclusive first look. The days leading up to the event will generate some social buzz about your business, helping you reach new customers as well as strengthen your current customers’ loyalty – it’s a win-win!

If you’re planning a promotional event for your small business, Grimes Events & Party Tents has you covered! From tents and lighting to tables and chairs, we have everything you need for a successful event! Contact us today for more information!

Tent Rentals for Every Event

Living in beautiful South Florida, many events are held outdoors. From backyard weddings to corporate events and sporting championships to emergency relief, tents provide a great number of benefits.

Private Events

Private events such as birthday parties, baby showers, weddings, retirement parties, family reunions, graduation parties, or holiday gatherings benefit greatly from tent rentals. Grimes Events & Party Tents has extensive experience with private events. For example, last summer we were able to create a gorgeous driveway setup for a 10-year-old’s surprise birthday party, complete with a clear top frame tent. Other vendors provided decorations that made for a truly spectacular scene that the birthday girl was over the moon about!

Corporate Events

Many businesses host events such as seminars, product launches, trade expositions, networking events, leadership building, team building, conferences, business dinners, and more. While some of these events are small, others are hosted on a larger scale. Our frame tents are just one of the many options that can provide a great space to host these large gatherings.

Charity & Fundraising Events

Charity and fundraising events come in all shapes and sizes. They can include society balls, sporting events, charitable auctions, sponsored events, theatrical productions, and more. For example, last year we were able to provide 30 tents as well as tables, chairs, and fencing for the Autism Speaks Walk at the Meyer Amphitheater in West Palm Beach.

Live Events

Live events, such as sporting events, shows, concerts, festivals, etc., are a great opportunity for tent rentals. Whether you are using a larger tent to house a group of people or smaller, pop-up tents for individual vendors, the options are endless! In 2019, at the College Football Championship Conference, we provided tents for the stadium, conference USA, and UAB as well as media platforms throughout the stadium for CBS.

Small Businesses

Especially in the past year, many small businesses and restaurants have had to get creative in how they offer their services outdoors. Our pop-up tents, as well as many others, provided comfort for guests. For example, we were able to provide tents as well as tables, chairs, fencing, and lighting in Downtown Delray for the Downtown Development Authority’s Distanced Dining in the Park event, featuring extended dining options for local restaurants.

Emergency Services

Tents offer benefits not only during planned events but also during unplanned times of need. For example, Grimes Events & Party Tents is proud to have served Palm Beach County during a difficult year by making our tents available to use as additional facilities for COVID-19 testing.

Are you planning an event? Perhaps your event could also benefit from a tent rental! Contact the team at Grimes Events & Party Tents today for more information.

A Message From Grimes Regarding COVID-19

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.

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.

Delray Beach Fashion Week: Behind the Scenes

Fashion Week is a massive fashion show event that takes place right in the heart of Downtown Delray Beach. There are several runway shows over the course of Fashion Week, featuring the work of local designers with varying styles.

Grimes Events & Party Tents has played a role in Delray Beach Fashion Week for 6 years. We create the most important piece of the fashion shows – the runways! We take great care in setting up the runway stages, as they must be both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

What would a runway show be without seats for the audience? We also set up the accompanying chairs that surround the stage. These White Padded Chairs were used in last year’s Fashion Week.

Although the runway stages are a crucial part of Fashion Week, we also set up gorgeous pipe and drape for the lounge areas. To set some great mood lighting, we incorporate Edison Bulb Café / Bistro Lighting between the pipe and drape. To organize the space and give the area a VIP boost, we added stanchions.

This year, we are proud to be a Silver Sponsor for Fashion Week 2020! The show takes place January 29 – February 2, right on time for the Big Game itself held here in Florida. We can’t wait to set up the runways, chairs for this incredible event. Game on!
