1966

Family knowledge, local roots

Owner Merrill Dougherty began working with the company in 1966 while he was still in high school. After serving four years in the U.S. Air Force, he returned to the rental business and later purchased the company in the 1980s.

Today, Merrill remains actively involved in Chesapeake Rent All and works with an experienced local team.

Events We Serve

Tent Rentals for Weddings, Parties and Outdoor Events

Every event is different. Some are small backyard gatherings, while others are large celebrations with hundreds of guests.

Our tents are used throughout Harford County, Cecil County, eastern Baltimore County, and the surrounding region for weddings, graduation parties, birthday celebrations, company picnics, fundraisers, festivals, and community gatherings.

Backyard Parties

Backyard parties are among the most common events we help with. A tent provides shade, structure, and a comfortable place for guests to gather.

Graduation Parties

Graduation parties often bring extended family, friends, and neighbors together. A well-placed tent creates additional space without crowding everyone inside the home.

Outdoor Weddings

Outdoor weddings can combine the beauty of an outdoor setting with shelter from the sun and changing weather.

Corporate & Community

Businesses and community organizations also use our tents for corporate gatherings, company picnics, fairs, fundraisers, and community celebrations.

Tent Styles & Sizes

Tent Options for Different Event Sizes

Choosing the right tent depends on your expected guest count, how the space will be used, and the amount of room available at the event site.

Our team can help recommend an appropriate option based on seating, dining, food service, entertainment, walkways, and other layout needs.

Available options include:

10 × 10 ft  to  60 × 150 ft

Tent sizes range from 10 feet by 10 feet to 60 feet by 150 feet, subject to availability and site conditions.

Event Equipment

Tables, Chairs, Lighting and Event Equipment

Along with tent rentals, Chesapeake Rent All provides tables, chairs, linens, lighting, china, glassware, flatware, dance floors, stages, risers, concession equipment, catering equipment, generators, and other event accessories.

Many customers rent tables and chairs with their tent so guests have comfortable seating for dining and conversation. Linens can help coordinate tables with the event’s colors and style.

One stop. One call.

China, glassware, and flatware are available for weddings, dinners, receptions, corporate events, and other gatherings that require a complete dining setup.

Dance floors and lighting are popular additions for receptions and evening events where music and dancing are part of the celebration.

Our team has decades of experience helping customers determine appropriate tent sizes and equipment setups for their events.
