Fall weddings in Wisconsin have a magic all their own—colorful leaves, crisp air, and cozy vibes that make your big day feel extra special. But autumn weather can also be unpredictable. A tented wedding is the perfect way to celebrate outdoors while staying comfortable, no matter what Mother Nature has in store. Here’s everything you need to know about planning a fall wedding with a tent.
Why Choose a Tent for Your Fall Wedding?
A tent gives you the best of both worlds: fresh air and scenic fall backdrops combined with protection from the chill, wind, or surprise showers. With the right setup, you’ll have a flexible space that feels warm, inviting, and uniquely tailored to your style.
Pick the Right Size & Style
Your guest list and vision for the day will determine which tent is right for you. All Star Rentals offers a variety of options, from classic frame tents to elegant pole tents. Frame tents work beautifully on uneven ground or when space is tight, while pole tents create a dramatic, sweeping look. Not sure what size you’ll need? Our tent sizing guide makes it easy to match your guest count and layout with the perfect tent.
Keep Guests Comfortable with Climate Control
Mild autumn days can turn brisk once the sun sets. Portable heaters keep the chill away, ensuring guests are cozy throughout dinner and dancing. Sidewalls are especially valuable in the fall—they let in natural light during the day, while blocking wind and trapping heat as temperatures drop. They also prevent dew from forming on tables, linens, or even the dance floor. Without them, you risk condensation dripping onto décor or guests dealing with damp surfaces. Together, heaters and sidewalls create a warm, comfortable environment that keeps the celebration going strong all evening long.
Don’t Forget Flooring
Fall weather can be unpredictable—think dewy grass, damp ground, or even a little mud after rain. A dance floor keeps the celebration lively and comfortable, giving guests a solid spot to show off their moves without worrying about soggy shoes. Adding a stage for your DJ or band not only creates a focal point but also keeps the event flowing smoothly and helps everyone feel more connected. Together, a dance floor and stage add structure and polish to your tent, making it both practical and party-ready no matter what the weather brings.
Create Atmosphere with Décor
Tents are like a blank canvas—ready to be dressed up with your wedding style. Think string lights for a soft glow, rustic harvest-inspired centerpieces, lounge furniture for guests to relax or elegant linens in warm autumn colors. With the right décor, a tent becomes a stunning, cozy backdrop for your fall wedding photos.
Plan for Sunset Timing
Fall days are shorter, so factor in an earlier sunset when planning your ceremony and reception timeline. A tent with added lighting ensures your celebration continues seamlessly into the evening, no matter when it gets dark.
