Estimated Base Prices
| Tent Size | Approx. Guests | Price Range (Frame/Pole) |
|---|---|---|
| 20' x 20' | 30-40 (Seated) | $450 - $650 |
| 20' x 40' | 60-80 (Seated) | $750 - $1,100 |

Factors That Affect Price
- Tent Style: Sailcloth and Clear-Top tents typically cost 20-30% more than standard white vinyl pole or frame tents.
- Flooring: Adding a full wood floor is a significant investment, often costing more than the tent itself.
- Lighting: Simple string lights are affordable ($1-2/ft), while chandeliers and wash lighting add more.
- Delivery: Distance and site complexity (carrying equipment up hills/stairs) can affect labor fees.
