Lighting, Flooring & Decor

Illuminate the yurts and stretch tents with elegant lighting and add our flooring for a dry, comfortable, and enclosed space.

Yurt Lighting

Our lighting package for the palace yurt includes four Moroccan lanterns (two Moroccan lanterns for the champagne yurts) and perimeter mini lights. The lanterns are stain glass and hang from the central wheel, whilst the perimeter mini lights wrap around the circumference of the yurt. Both the lanterns and mini lamps provide beautiful evening lighting in the yurt, and the lanterns function on a dimmer switch. Please note we do not provide extension cords for lighting requirements. The lighting package requires a grounded ended extension cord with three outlets.

Stretch Tent Lighting

The lighting package for the stretch tents include hand punched metal lanterns with amber and blue glass and LED dimmable Edison bulbs The small stretch has two lanterns, the medium stretch tent has four lanterns and the large stretch tent has six lanterns.

Please note we do not provide extension cords for lighting requirements. The lighting package requires a grounded ended extension cord with three outlets.

Yurt Flooring

Enhance your yurt experience with our soft and durable flooring, perfect for events on grass. This flooring is essential for creating a dry and comfortable space, reducing humidity, and eliminating damp odors after rain. It levels uneven ground, providing an elegant touch to your yurt setup. Please note that while heels are fine, stilettos might catch in the flooring.

The flooring is mandatory if set up on grass. This is due to the humidity generated by grass transpiration. In a walled tent, this moisture not only leads to a damp feeling inside the yurt but can also cause mold problems. It is not required if set up on wood, concrete, ash felt, or gravel.

Please note we do not rent dance floors.

If you chose to rent a dance floor, check with the rental company whether it can go directly on the ground. In our experience the wood on metal frame type works much better on uneven surfaces compared to flooring tiles (hardened plastic interlocking portable flooring tiles.) Many of our clients rent our soft flooring and then rent a dance floor to go on top.

*If you rent flooring tiles, make sure to check with the rental company if plywood should be installed underneath.
