Chapter 1: Finding the Perfect Tent & Fit

What kinds of tents can transform our wedding day dreams?

The tent we are most excited about this year is our Black Cathedral LEVO Tent. It is the first ever Losberger LEVO tent in Texas! See the tent pictured above at a stunning wedding on a private ranch in Refugio, TX.

Can you help us pick the right size for our grand entrance and space for dancing?

We offer a variety of tools to assist you. Our Tent Calculator Guide will ask for your guest count and preferred seating arrangement, then provide you with the perfect tent size. Additionally, our Tent Rentals FAQ addresses any questions you might have about tenting your wedding. For further assistance, feel free to contact one of our event specialists.

Is this tent ready for anything nature throws our way?

Absolutely! Our tents are designed to withstand various weather conditions, ensuring your event goes smoothly no matter what nature throws your way. Additionally, we offer heating and air conditioning options to keep your guests comfortable in any season.

Chapter 2: Setting the Stage

What kind of ground can these tents handle—grass, concrete, or something else?

Tents are typically secured using stakes driven into the ground, which is easy on soft surfaces like grass or dirt. For harder surfaces like asphalt, concrete, and gravel, tents are anchored with weights instead. Both we can take care of!

Can we have fancy flooring or a dance floor to showcase our moves?

We offer a variety of flooring options, including elegant and fancy flooring, as well as dance floors perfect for showcasing your moves. No matter your style or preference, we have the right option to make your event memorable.

Do you provide lighting or should we provide our own?

We provide a variety of lighting options to enhance your event. Whether you need ambient lighting, spotlights, or decorative lights, we have you covered. If you have any specific lighting preferences or requirements, feel free to discuss them with one of our event specialists. They will ensure that your lighting needs are met to create the perfect atmosphere for your event

Do we need permits or is paperwork done in house?

Great question! Whether you need permits for your tent rental depends on the location and specific regulations of your event. In many cases, permits are required for large tents or events held in public spaces. We can assist you with the paperwork and help guide you through the permitting process to ensure everything is in order.

Chapter 3: All the Extras

What rentals do you recommend to make our look complete?

While tents is in our name, we also have an impressive array of chairs, tables, linens, glassware, dinnerware; the list goes on. Give us a call today to stop by and see our showroom for yourself!

Do you drop off, set up, and pick up—or do we need to recruit friends?

We take care of everything for you! Our team will handle the drop-off, set-up, and pick-up of the tent, so you won’t need to recruit friends for help. This way, you can focus on enjoying your event without any added stress.
