How Much Do Event Rentals Cost in Dallas? Our Real Prices

By Jason & Angela

Real per-day prices for chairs, tables, tents, flower walls, and more from a Wylie rental company, plus sample budgets for a 30-person party and a 50-guest wedding.

Simply Gathered 20x20 high-peak marquee tent with string lights set up on a driveway at sunset

For a backyard party around Dallas, the basics for 30 guests (chairs, tables, linens, and a 20x20 tent) come to about $363 with us. A styled 50-guest celebration with a flower wall and an arch runs about $1,360. Both numbers are before delivery and sales tax, and they come straight from our own price list. Everything rents by the day: white folding chairs start at $1.85 each, six-foot tables at $7.50, and a 20x20 tent at $220 (or $299 for our high-peak marquee, the one we recommend).

  • Chairs: $1.85 (white folding) to $3 (white garden) each.
  • Tables: $7.50 to $10 each.
  • Tents: $50 for a 10x10 canopy up to $299 for a 20x20 high-peak marquee.

  • 5 six-foot tables (6 guests each): $37.50
  • 5 rectangular tablecloths: $50.00
  • 20x20 frame tent: $220.00

That's $363 before delivery and tax. A 20x20 tent seats about 36 at 6-foot tables, so you'd have room for a food table too. Upgrade to the high-peak marquee for $79 more and the whole setup looks dressier in photos.

Styled celebration for 50

  • 50 white garden chairs: $150
  • 7 sixty-inch round tables (8 guests each): $70
  • 7 round tablecloths: $70
  • Two 20x20 high-peak marquee tents side by side: $598
  • One flower wall: $175
  • Hexagonal wedding arch: $300

That comes to $1,363 before delivery and tax. Swap the garden chairs for folding chairs and the hexagonal arch for the white flower arch, and it drops to $1,155.50.

A buffet line

How do delivery, deposits, and minimums work?

Delivery fees are based on distance and order size, and we confirm yours with your quote before you pay anything. There's no minimum order if you pick up. Delivery outside Wylie and the immediate surrounding area has a $100 order minimum. Pickup works for most items, except large tents.

A 25% deposit secures your date, and the balance is due one week before your event. You can reserve most pieces online in a few minutes, or request a proposal for larger or fully styled events. Texas sales tax applies to rentals, so expect it on your total.

Delivery to your door is standard. Setup and styling are available as an add-on if you'd rather walk out to a finished space.

How can you keep rental costs down?

  • Pick up smaller items yourself. There's no minimum and no delivery fee.
  • Size the tent to your headcount. A 10x20 at $99 covers about 18 seated guests, and a 20x20 covers about 36.
  • Spend on one standout piece. A flower wall or an arch gives you the photos, and plain folding chairs and tables cover the rest.
  • Skip the setup add-on if you have a few helpers and an hour before guests arrive.
