Rain in the Forecast? Here’s How We Keep Your Event Dry
When you're planning an outdoor event, weather is one of the few things you can't control—but with the right preparation (and rental partner), you don’t have to panic when the forecast calls for rain.
At Twin Peaks Party Rental, we've helped hundreds of clients navigate unexpected weather without sacrificing the success or comfort of their event. Here’s how we help keep your guests dry, your setup secure, and your event on track when the skies open up.
☔ 1. Tent Rentals That Mean Business
Our high-quality frame and pole tents are engineered to withstand the elements. Whether you need a 10x10 popup or a full wedding canopy with sidewalls, we’ll:
Help you choose the right tent size for your guest count.
Anchor it safely on grass, concrete, or asphalt using weights or stakes.
Add optional gutter systems if you're connecting multiple tents together.
🌬️ 2. Sidewalls for Wind & Rain Protection
Rain rarely falls straight down—so we always recommend adding sidewalls to your tent if there’s any chance of bad weather. These clear or solid walls:
Block wind and sideways rain.
Provide a cozier, more elegant enclosed atmosphere.
Can be installed on-site quickly if the weather shifts at the last minute.
🔥 3. Heaters to Keep Guests Comfortable
A wet day often comes with a drop in temperature. We offer tent-safe propane heaters to keep your guests warm and dry, even if it’s chilly outside. We’ll help:
Determine how many heaters you need based on your tent size.
Position them for even, safe heating.
Set them up with fuel and instructions for use.
🧼 4. Flooring Options to Avoid Muddy Shoes
Don’t let your guests walk through puddles or mud. We offer temporary flooring solutions, such as:
Event-grade plywood floors
Outdoor-rated turf
Sturdy carpet overlays
These keep high-traffic areas clean, especially for events with dancing, dinner, or formal attire.
📦 5. Flexible Delivery & Setup Options
If the weather is iffy, we’ll work with you to adjust delivery or setup times to avoid storms. Our experienced team can:
Set up earlier if needed.
Help you create a “Plan B” layout.
Return post-event to break down when it’s safe.
💡 6. Bonus Tips for Rainy Day Events
Rent extra umbrellas for guests.
Use raised platforms or coverings for AV and electrical equipment.
Plan for covered walkways between tents or buildings.
Let guests know your event is still on—rain or shine!
