Transform your backyard into reception space goals and have food trucks show up for dinner, dessert or even a midnight snack.

First things first, you’re going to want a tent in the case of less than desirable weather. But don’t fret, Newport Tent’s offerings include elegant canopies and beautiful hardwood ballroom dance floors, and they can even provide lighting, decor and furniture rentals. Their staff also can perform free site-surveys in order to measure the area and share ideas to ensure that your open-air, backyard affair is one for the ages. newporttent.com.

If you’re looking for a little more than just food, consider giving Keane’s Wood-Fired Catering a call. From setup to tear down, cocktail hour through dessert, Keane’s will make your backyard shindig a total breeze. But the food is still a pretty big draw: they let you indulge in barbecue-based-bites no matter if you order starters, buffet options, snacks, stations or all of the above. keaneswoodfired.com.

Why go to the booze when the booze can come to you? RI Cruisin’ Cocktails serves fancy drinks out of a retro 1961 Shasta trailer turned renovated mobile cocktail bar affectionately named Marigold.
