Beautiful tents, set up right.

Tents, tables, chairs and lighting for weddings, corporate events and backyard celebrations. We deliver, set up and take it all down, so you can enjoy the day.

What we do

Events we tent

From a 50-guest backyard graduation to a town festival with a dozen tents, we plan the layout with you and show up on time.

Corporate & community

Company picnics, customer events, fundraisers and festivals. Multi-tent layouts, sponsor banners and tight setup windows are routine for us.

Backyard parties, reunions, showers and open houses. Add a bounce house or water slide and the kids are covered too.

Tents & rentals

Tent styles

Tell us about your event and your site, and we'll bring the right tent for it. Our fleet includes high-peak, pole and frame tents from 20×20 to 40×120, all delivered, set up and taken down by our crew. Frame tents (20×20 up to 30×40) have no center poles and work well on patios and pavement.

High-peak tents

Tall, elegant peaks for ceremonies, cocktail areas and entrances. Pair them up for a bigger footprint, or go with our 40′ hexagon.

Sidewalls for any weather

Add solid or window sidewalls to block wind, rain or evening chill, then bring in heaters or fans to keep guests comfortable.

The classic scalloped wedding and festival tent, and the best value for big guest counts on grass.

Tent sizes

Which tent fits your guest list?

Guest counts are a general guide: about 12½ square feet per guest at round tables, 8 at banquet tables and 6 for standing or ceremony rows. Buffets, dance floors and bars take extra room, so we'll confirm the right size with you.

How it works

Three steps to a tented event

  1. Request a quote

    Tell us your date, location and guest count. We'll recommend a tent and layout and send a quote.

  2. We deliver & set up

    Our crew arrives ahead of your event, raises the tent and sets tables, chairs and lighting.

  3. We tear down

    After the event we take everything down and haul it away. You just enjoy the party.

Why Kink's

Reliable on the big day, flexible along the way

Your tent is the one thing that has to be right. Here's how we make sure it is.

We show up when we say we will

You get a setup time before the event and a teardown time after. Your tent is up and ready before guests or vendors arrive.

Set up to stay put

Every tent is staked or weighted for the surface it sits on. On pavement we use water barrel weights, or drill and patch the concrete.

Ready for Illinois weather

Sidewalls, patio heaters and 42″ fans let a spring wedding or a July festival go on in comfort, rain or shine.

One tent or a whole festival

We handle backyard graduations and multi-tent community festivals with the same crew and the same care.

Plans change, we adjust

Guest count went up? Need to move the tent or add lighting? Call or text and we'll work it out with you.

Everything from one company

Tents, tables, chairs, dance floors, staging, lighting and bounce houses on one quote, with one crew to coordinate.

Bounce houses & water slides

Castles, water slides, combos and obstacle courses for birthdays, school carnivals and yes, even wedding receptions.
