Planning a Fall or Winter Event in Nebraska? Here’s What to Rent (and What to Know)

Spring and summer may get all the attention, but fall and winter events in Nebraska can be just as stunning—and often more memorable. Think warm lighting, cozy vibes, seasonal menus, and festive holiday energy.

But cooler temps (and unpredictable weather) require a slightly different game plan when it comes to rentals.

At EZ Event Rentals, we help clients across Omaha, Lincoln, and beyond plan everything from fall weddings to company Christmas parties. Here's your guide to getting it right when the temps drop.

Tents Still Matter (Yes, Even in Cold Weather)

You might not think of tents as a cold-weather essential—but they’re actually perfect for fall and early winter events.

Our frame tents with sidewalls can be fully enclosed to trap warmth and block wind. Add a few portable tent heaters, and you’ve got a cozy, protected space that works for:

  • Outdoor weddings

  • Pumpkin patch events

  • Holiday markets or pop-ups

  • Backyard Thanksgiving gatherings

We’ll help you choose the right tent size and heating setup based on your guest count and layout.

Heat Things Up: Portable Heaters Done Right

Don’t rely on venue heat alone—especially if you're using a tent, garage, or other semi-outdoor space. We offer:

  • Quiet, efficient tent heaters for large enclosed areas

  • Patio-style heaters for cocktail zones, lounges, and entrances

  • Delivery, fuel, and safety setup all handled by our trained team

Pro tip: Space heaters from big box stores aren’t made for event use—and can be unsafe or ineffective for larger crowds. Go pro for peace of mind.

Lighting Makes All the Difference

Fall and winter = early sunsets. The right lighting keeps your event functional and beautiful.

We recommend:

  • Warm white string or globe lights for that seasonal glow

  • Uplighting to add color and ambiance to indoor walls or draping

  • Tent lighting kits so you’re not left in the dark once dinner ends

Add lighting to food stations, pathways, entrances, and gathering areas—especially for evening events.

Tables, Chairs, and Cozy Touches

Fall and winter events are all about warmth and comfort. We offer:

  • Linen packages in rich, seasonal tones (navy, burgundy, gold, deep green)

  • Padded chairs for longer, seated dinners

  • Round and banquet tables for formal or casual settings

  • Cocktail tables for mingling at indoor holiday parties or fundraisers

Ask us how to mix and match pieces for that “gathered, intentional” feel guests love.

Popular Fall & Winter Event Types We Serve

  • Fall weddings (with outdoor ceremony & tented receptions)

  • Nonprofit galas and fundraisers

  • Corporate holiday parties

  • End-of-year school and church events

  • Thanksgiving and Christmas home gatherings

If you can dream it, we can help you host it—warmly, safely, and with style.
