Across the three chair listings (n = 3), the starting price runs from $1.00 to $3.25 per chair, with a median of $1.50; the two tent listings start at $320.00 and $500.00 per tent. Each listing presents its price as a starting price, and the vendor confirms the final total for your order before the booking is final.
The cards run tents, then tables, then chairs, with the lowest listed unit price first in each group. Each card shows 1 to 200 guests and a flexible duration; treat that as a booking window, not a capacity, and size the order by item count.
Event tent rental for a backyard wedding
A tent turns a lawn or driveway into the reception room. Both tent listings ask for your guest count, what goes under the tent (tables, a dance floor, a buffet or a bar) and the surface it will stand on.
Event Tent Rental with Delivery and Setup Included in Price
A per-tent rental from an Irvine party rentals company that states its prices include delivery and setup, so the crew raises the tent before your event. The listing names sun, wind and light rain as reasons to rent one, and asks you to note slopes, trees and sprinkler heads, confirm the surface and mark underground utilities. Ask which sizes the $320.00 starting price covers, whether sidewalls or lighting can be added, and when takedown happens.
Book nowEvent Tent Rental for Weddings, Backyard Parties and Gatherings
A Moorpark rental company that serves Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties lists this tent from $500.00, and its item details name white and clear styles for lawns. The listing points out that some cities have rules about tents for larger gatherings, so ask your city whether a permit applies. Delivery, setup and pickup may be included; confirm them, the tent size and any sidewalls in your quote. The same company rents the dance floor described below.
Book nowTable rentals for parties and wedding dinners
Tables are priced per table, so the order follows your floor plan. Count guest tables first, then the support tables people forget: gifts, guest book, cake or desserts, and a DJ or drink station.
Wedding and Party Table Rentals With Delivery and Setup Included
Per-table rental from the same Irvine company as the tent above, again with delivery and setup included in the vendor's prices. The listing's advice is useful for a home reception: count the guest tables, then add support tables for gifts, the guest book, desserts and a DJ or bar station. Confirm table sizes before ordering linens elsewhere.
Book nowEvent Table Rentals with Delivery and Optional Setup Service
A woman-owned wedding rental company in Santa Clarita rents event tables from $10.00, delivered across Santa Clarita, Valencia, Stevenson Ranch and Los Angeles County, with setup as an option. Its collection leans boho, vintage, tropical, rustic and romantic, and the listing suggests long banquet rows for a family-style dinner or a sweetheart table facing the room. Linens, china, glassware and decor come from the same team, so the table can arrive dressed.
Book nowWedding chair rental: ceremony rows and dinner seating
You need one chair per seated guest, and sometimes two sets if the ceremony and dinner happen in different parts of the yard. The three chair listings span $1.00 to $3.25 each; read each card for the styles and delivery terms behind the starting price.
Event Chair Rentals for Weddings and Parties with Delivery
Chairs from the Irvine company start at $1.00 each, the lowest listed unit price in this guide, and the vendor states that the price includes delivery and setup. The starting price may not cover every style, so ask which chairs it applies to and whether cushions or covers can be added. Plan whether ceremony chairs get flipped to the dinner tables or you need two sets, and ask whether pickup after the event is included.
Book nowEvent Chair Rental for Weddings, Ceremonies, Parties and Dinners
Chairs from the Moorpark company start at $1.50 each. The description says styles are not listed on its pricing, while the item details name rustic and vintage, classic, natural wood and white looks, so confirm which style you get at that price. Its item details list both grass and concrete use, which suits a lawn ceremony that moves to a patio for dinner. The listing says rentals usually arrive the day of the event or the day before.
Book nowEvent Chair Rentals with Delivery, Vintage and Peacock Styles
Event chairs from the Santa Clarita company start at $3.25 each, and the inventory also includes vintage furniture, lounge pieces and a statement peacock chair for the couple or a photo corner. For a cocktail-style reception the listing suggests seats for about half your guests plus lounge areas. Delivery is listed as included and setup is optional, but the listing also says the final total depends on delivery and setup, so confirm both in writing.
Book nowArches and a portable dance floor rental
The Moorpark company behind the tent and chair cards also lists a Portable Dance Floor Rental for Weddings, Parties and Events at $150.00 for a 12x12 ft floor in black or white. The listing pitches it for a flat surface over grass, better footing in heels and protection for the lawn, and notes that larger guest lists usually need more square footage than 12x12 ft. Mention any slope when you request it.
For a ceremony backdrop, a family-owned company in Vista, established in 2006, lists a White Wooden Arch Rental for Wedding Ceremonies and Backdrops at $70.00 per arch, plus a 9% cleaning fee the listing says applies to this product ($76.30 before delivery and tax). It delivers across San Diego County, including Vista, Oceanside, Carlsbad, San Marcos and Escondido. The listing says the arch does not come with florals or draping and does not give dimensions, and its photo shows a bamboo arch rather than the white wooden one, so ask the vendor for a photo of the arch you would receive. The Moorpark listings also mention ceremony altars and arches from $173.

How do you plan backyard wedding rentals for 100 guests?
Planning backyard wedding rentals for 100 guests starts with a floor plan: ceremony rows, dinner tables, and whether a tent and dance floor share the same cover. Build the list from that plan and send the full order to one company where you can, so delivery and pickup run on one schedule.
A worked example: 100 chairs, 12 tables and one tent
At listed starting prices, before taxes, fees and style upgrades: one hundred chairs cost $100.00 from Irvine (100 x $1.00), $150.00 from Moorpark (100 x $1.50) or $325.00 from Santa Clarita (100 x $3.25). Twelve tables (set your own count from table size and layout) cost $108.00 from Irvine (12 x $9.00) or $120.00 from Santa Clarita (12 x $10.00). An Irvine order of 100 chairs, 12 tables and one tent therefore starts at $528.00 ($100.00 + $108.00 + $320.00), with delivery and setup included per the vendor. A Moorpark tent and 100 chairs start at $650.00 ($500.00 + $150.00), and a Santa Clarita order of 100 chairs and 12 tables starts at $445.00 ($325.00 + $120.00). Ask for the tent quote first: the Irvine listing says its total depends on tent size, quantity and site needs.
Preparing a backyard for a tent
Measure the area and tell the vendor what the tent will stand on. The Irvine listing asks you to note slopes, trees, sprinkler heads and underground lines, mark utilities and check HOA rules; the Moorpark listing asks about slopes, trees, overhead lines and whether the ground is grass, dirt or hardscape, and suggests asking your city whether a permit applies.
Delivery, setup and pickup terms
The Irvine listings state that delivery and setup are included; the chair listing suggests asking whether pickup after the event is included, and the tent listing suggests asking when takedown and pickup happen. The Santa Clarita listings include delivery and offer setup as an option. The Moorpark listings say prices may include delivery, setup and clean up, and that rentals usually arrive the day of the event or the day before; confirm the window and pickup time in writing, with gate codes and access notes.
Setting up outdoor dining at home
Rentable outdoor dining in your own yard instead of a restaurant patio takes a tent for shade and evening dew, tables, chairs and linens. The Santa Clarita company also rents linens, chargers, china, flatware and glassware, so one order can cover the table. For the venue side, see our private home and estate venues guide.
Counts, cancellation and timing
Every card listing here carries a strict cancellation policy listed as up to 30 days before, so lock in quantities once your guest count is close to final. The Santa Clarita listings suggest confirming the final count a few weeks before the event. For Bay Area cost benchmarks, see our party and event rental cost guide, and for lighting under the tent, our uplighting rental cost breakdown.

How many chairs and tables do I need for a backyard wedding?
For a seated backyard wedding, plan one chair per guest plus a few extras for vendors and late arrivals, which is what the chair listings on this page advise. Decide whether ceremony chairs will be moved to the dinner tables or whether you need two sets. Then add support tables for gifts, the guest book, desserts and a DJ or bar station. For a cocktail-style reception, the Santa Clarita listing suggests seats for about half the guests.
Do I need a permit for a tent at a backyard wedding in Southern California?
A backyard wedding tent in Southern California may need a permit depending on your city and the size of the gathering, so check before you book. The Moorpark tent listing notes that some venues and cities have rules about tents for larger gatherings and suggests asking your local office. The Irvine tent listing asks hosts to check HOA rules and to mark underground utilities and sprinkler lines before setup.
Which parts of Southern California do these rental companies serve?
The Moorpark company serves Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, and the Santa Clarita company delivers across Santa Clarita, Valencia, Stevenson Ranch and Los Angeles County.

How far ahead should I book backyard wedding rentals?
Book Southern California backyard wedding rentals once your date and guest count are close to final; the Irvine listings note that tents book quickly for spring and summer weekends and that chairs fill quickly in wedding season. All seven card listings carry a strict cancellation policy listed as up to 30 days before, and each is request to book, so the vendor confirms your date before the booking is final.
