If your celebration is outdoors on grass or sand, or if your venue doesn&rsquo;t already have a dance floor, renting one is essential. Uneven surfaces like grass, dirt, decks, or outdoor patios can be tricky for guests, especially those in heels or barefoot. Choosing the proper size dance floor is just as important, too small and guests feel crowded, too large and the space can feel empty or awkward. A properly sized and installed dance floor keeps everyone safe, comfortable, and ready to hit the floor without worry!<br /><br />At Goldenbear Event Rentals, our dance floor features a rich, dark wood finish that pairs beautifully with our full collection of polished wood <a href="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/rentals.html">rental pieces</a>. Designed for both indoor and outdoor use, it is 100% water-resistant and built to handle a variety of surfaces. Its neutral, elegant look complements any event style, while the smooth, forgiving surface makes dancing fun and comfortable for guests of all ages. From backyard weddings to large venue receptions, our dance floor provides a reliable, stylish foundation and the perfect amount of space for unforgettable celebrations.</div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0;margin-right:0;text-align:right"> <a> <img src="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/uploads/1/3/5/0/135048616/published/taylor-kuperberg-photogrphotography-dance-floor.jpg?1767579640" alt="Picture" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><span><span style="color:rgb(33, 33, 33); font-weight:700">How big of a dance floor do you really need?</span></span></h2>  <div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(33, 33, 33)">Most wedding and event experts will tell you that really only 50% of your guests will be dancing at any given time during your event.&nbsp; We personally think that it should be every event planner&rsquo;s mission to make sure that each and every guest is having such a great time that they all get up and dance the night away!

DIY (Do it Yourself) </span></span>&#8203;</h2>  <div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Instead of hiring expensive and frivolous vendors, consider taking on some of the tasks yourself.&nbsp; You can make your own invitations, centerpieces, and even your wedding cake or dessert bar. It's an excellent way to add a personal touch to your big day and save some money.</span></span><br /><br /><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">We&rsquo;ve designed our <a href="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/rentals.html" target="_blank">wooden rental pieces</a> to be so beautiful on their own that minimal decor is needed to create a picture perfect setting for your special event.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></span></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:10px;text-align:left"> <a> <img src="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/uploads/1/3/5/0/135048616/reception-21_orig.jpg" alt="Florida Outdoor Wedding Farm Tables" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">2. Choose a Unique Venue</span></span></h2>  <div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Think outside of the box when it comes to choosing a venue. Instead of a traditional wedding hall, opt for a unique and picturesque location. Central Florida has so many unique wedding venues available including local beaches, public parks, or even your family's beautiful backyard!&nbsp; What could be more special than to get married in the park where you both spent so much time together, the beach you got engaged on, or at a family home with all of those lifelong memories?!</span></span><br /><br /><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Our customers have told us that some vendors give them a hard time or even refuse to deliver to public parks or private residences.&nbsp; Here at Goldenbear Event Rentals, we practically specialize in delivering to unconventional event locations!&nbsp; We are fully licensed and insured and our team will work with you to make it happen.</span></span></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-align:left"> <a> <img src="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/uploads/1/3/5/0/135048616/olivia-trent-details-26_orig.jpg" alt="Florida Backyard Wedding Ceremony" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">3. Simplify Your Menu</span></span></h2>  <div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Food is a significant expense at any wedding, but you can save by simplifying your menu. Instead of going for a fancy plated dinner, opt for a buffet-style menu or even a food truck. It can be just as tasty and affordable.</span></span><br /><br /><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">Our popular&nbsp;<a href="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/store/p3/Dual_Barrel_Farm_Table_Info.html" target="_blank">dual barrel farm table</a>&nbsp;makes for a charming double sided buffet or dessert bar!</span></span></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-align:center"> <a> <img src="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/uploads/1/3/5/0/135048616/resized-20230204-170741_orig.jpg" alt="Florida Wedding Cake Farm Table " style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <h2 class="wsite-content-title"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">4. Keep the Guest List Small</span></span></h2>  <div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">While it's tempting to invite everyone you know, a smaller guest list is the most obvious way to significantly reduce your costs. You could also opt to use the money saved per guest to give the smaller party of guests a more luxurious experience.</span></span><br /><br /><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">With no minimums, and <a href="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/rental-packages.html" target="_blank">packages</a> that start at just 30 guests, we cater specifically to intimate Central Florida events of 200 guests or less!</span></span></div>  <div><div class="wsite-image wsite-image-border-none " style="padding-top:10px;padding-bottom:10px;margin-left:0px;margin-right:0px;text-align:right"> <a> <img src="https://www.goldenbeareventrentals.com/uploads/1/3/5/0/135048616/sarahgehmanphotography-ceremony-14_orig.jpg" alt="Outdoor Florida Wedding Ceremony Benches" style="width:auto;max-width:100%" /> </a> <div style="display:block;font-size:90%"></div> </div></div>  <div class="paragraph"><span><span style="color:rgb(0, 0, 0)">By personalizing your wedding day, you can reduce your costs without sacrificing your vision for your special day.
