When do you set up for a tent wedding?

Hi There,

I was wondeirng if someone who has had a tent wedding could advise on when the best time to set up the inisde of the tent is.  I'd really like to get this done on Friday for a Saturday night wedding. Is that too early though?

Thanks!

    I've been contacting tent rental companies and the answer I've gotten for a Saturday wedding is that they would be set up on Friday.

    My fiance's sister just got married this past weekend (Saturday).  We setup the dance floor, tables and chairs Friday morning.  That evening after rehersal, we did everything else (the tablecloths, centerpieces, and extras).  We had to stop in the afternoon as we were expecting rain, and got it.  Everything looked great for her Saturday 7pm reception!

    <div>Thanks!  This is what I was wondering.  I really want to set everything up Friday afternoon if possible but wasn't sure if it would be too soon.  We're not expecting rain at all, so i  don't think that will be an issue but want to make sure that it will be ok.</div>
