As a certified Sperry Tents provider, The Greenwich Tent Company has direct access to the most luxurious tent rentals in the world. Known for their nautical and handcrafted designs, Sperry Tents not only provide our clients with a variety of sailcloth tent options, but recently released the Sperry Arch which features laminated bent wood arches and a genuine sailcloth fabric ceiling to enhance the design and scale of any celebration. With possibilities abound – here are three ways we love to see Connecticut and New York wedding planners utilize the Sperry canopy in their design plans.
Broaden Your Footprint
Whether you want to “bump out” an area of your tent for an additional bar or specialty food station like a raw bar, the Sperry arch is a great option to do so. The arch, which comes in three sizes, can stand alone outside the footprint of your tent to give guests an area to congregate, or be brought underneath a tented area to ground the space and create a designated area in the blueprint.
Situate a Stand Alone Canopy
With its high-quality wood frame and luxurious ivory aesthetic, you may want to consider the arch for more than just connecting tents. With the largest sizes spanning 10 x 20 – the arch can comfortably seat up to 15 for dinner but is also modular, meaning we can place them together in 10-foot increments creating a weather-proof configuration. Since the arch can be installed on patios, decks and other hardscape sites where staking is not an option, this has become a great tent rental option for family reunions, dinner parties or social gatherings. A bonus? It can be fully enclosed with clear or solid walls to provide shelter from the elements or protection from summer’s pesky insects.
Architect a Grand Entrance
Probably our most utilized use of the Sperry Arch is to serve as a beautiful grand entrance and exit to wedding receptions. The defined entry can be left untouched to emulate a rustic or nautical design aesthetic or be adorned with lush florals and greenery to give guests their first peek at your wedding reception decor.
