What we've learned about Seattle weddings is that tent rentals are often a necessity rather than a luxury. With unpredictable rain and cool evenings even in summer, many outdoor venues in neighborhoods like West Seattle and Laurelhurst recommend or require tenting. Our research shows couples use tents not just for weather protection, but as a canvas to create unique atmospheres. From clear-top tents with skyline views to cozy canopies in wooded parks, Seattle offers the ideal backdrop for well-designed outdoor celebrations.
