Celebrating in Bannockburn

Where Bannockburn hosts use tents

Celebrations tend to be private and polished. Graduation parties for local high school students, anniversary dinners, bridal showers and weddings with 80 to 150 guests are typical, often held in large backyards or small estate properties with tents. Office campuses also host holiday parties and client events that need seating delivered inside a lobby or atrium. Events in Bannockburn range from small family dinners to crowds of 150 or more, and the right seating plan starts with an honest headcount.

How to plan

Getting tent rentals right

  1. 01

    Size it

    Seated dinner: 10-12 sq ft per guest. Standing cocktail: 6-8 sq ft. Add room for dance floor, bar and buffet.

  2. 02

    Check the ground

    Pole tents are staked into grass; frame tents can sit on pavement with water barrels or concrete weights.

  3. 03

    Permits and utilities

    Many Chicago-area towns require a permit for tents over 400 sq ft, and staking needs a utility locate (JULIE in Illinois).

  4. 04

    Plan for weather

    Add sidewalls, heaters or fans; a Chicago spring or fall evening can drop below 50°F.
