Chayse was responsive, detail-oriented, and extremely patient with my one million questions over that time period. The tent was priced extremely fairly especially compared to competitors in the area. Highly recommend!”
“I worked with Chayse at Monarch over the past several months coordinating a rain tent for my wedding.
- Sydney L.
Tables and chairs were delivered and set up exactly on schedule, and everything looked gorgeous once the linens and place settings were added. Celeste Smith was wonderful to work with — responsive, organized, and so helpful throughout the process. Highly recommend.”
“Monarch Rentals did a fantastic job for my daughter's wedding. Our rain‑plan tents were also in place and ready, which gave us total peace of mind.
- The Caytons
I hand-picked Monarch to serve as the exclusive rentals company for the venue. And I have also collaborated with Monarch's rental and floral department on several published styled shoots and open house events.”
“I have worked with Monarch as a tent and rental company for several years both as a wedding and event planner via 3 Of Cups Events and as Director of Events at The Sanctuary Event Space.
- Jessica R.
My daughter's wedding was on Saturday, June 8th, but we didn't realize we would need a tent until the Thursday prior. About 3:30 the afternoon of June 6th, we showed up to Monarch in a panic. Additionally, the folks at Monarch were able to clean a tent that was currently in use and deliver it to the church on Friday. The men who set up the tent were friendly and worked quickly so that the outdoor chapel would be ready for the noon wedding the next day. Cannot recommend Monarch Event Rentals highly enough!”
“I could not be more pleased with and grateful for the service we received at Monarch Event Rentals. General Manager Richard Bedor put us at ease, and locating our outdoor venue on his computer, he was able to measure it virtually and recommend a tent to fit the space.
- Rona M.
Questions? We’ve Got Answers.
How far in advance should I book a tent?
Tents book faster than most rentals, especially during wedding season. For weddings and large events, we recommend booking six to twelve months out. Specialty sizes and high-demand dates can fill up earlier, so it's worth reaching out sooner rather than later, even if your guest count or layout isn't fully locked in yet.
What if I'm not sure what size tent I need?
Let us know your guest count, your venue name (or general location, if you don't have a venue yet), and a rough idea of how you want guests seated. We'll work out the sizing math with you.
Do you offer site visits before the event?
We offer site visits for any size of installation and complexity. A site visit lets us check terrain, access, anchoring options, and any potential obstacles before the day of the event. We'll talk about whether your event needs one when we meet in the showroom.
Can the tent be set up at my venue?
Most likely. Our team has installed tents at venues across the Austin metro area, from private estates to ranch properties to hotel grounds. Some venues have specific requirements for tents (permits are the responsibility of the renter to obtain, anchoring rules, setup hours), and we can help you work through those.
Do you offer rain plan contingencies?
This is where having a tent in place really pays off! It ensures your event stays on schedule, regardless of what the unpredictable Texas weather throws at you. You will be able to make the final call on whether you need the tent 48 priors to delivery. We'll walk through your weather contingency plan during the booking process.
Tent Types, Features, and Sizing
We carry four main tent types, each suited to different events, venues, and aesthetics. Here's a quick overview, plus what to know about tent features and sizing.
Frame Tents
Our most common option. No center poles to interrupt the floor plan, available in white and clear top finishes. Best for most weddings, corporate events, and outdoor receptions where flexibility is important.
Festival Tents
Dramatic peaked roofs that work well at scale. Best for festivals, large outdoor events, and venues that want to make a vertical statement.
Sailcloth Tents
Curved edges and wood-textured poles that turn the tent into a design piece. Best for weddings and private events where the tent itself is part of the aesthetic.
Clearspan Tents
Our most durable option, built for higher wind ratings and unobstructed interior space. Installation requires a telehandler. Best for large events, multi-day setups, and venues that need extra wind tolerance.
Here’s what our tents come with
Weather protection
Tents keep your guests dry through light rain and drizzle without slowing the event down.
Climate control
Addition such as heaters, fans, portacoolers, and full AC installation can be made to keep guests comfortable in any Texas weather.
Aesthetic upgrades
Tent ceilings work as a blank canvas. We can add fabric drapes, lighting, and color treatments to make the tent feel like part of the event's design rather than just shelter.
