30x30 tent lighting

Hey girls,

Need some advice from girls who had tent receptions or been to a wedding with a tent reception. We will be having a 30x30 tent and will probably book through Accel Rentals. I've talked to 2 wonderful ladies there and they both have said that a 30" japanese lantern (60 watt) bulb will be sufficient for functional lighting. If that's true, then great, but as I look up at my 60 watt bulb on my ceiling fan...I don't see how 1 bulb will be enough to light up a 30'x30' tent (900 sq feet).

Help please!! :)

    Wow that doesnt seem like a lot! Maybe they mean multiple lanterns? I've seen pictures of tons of paper lanterns under a tent... but I've never seen just 1 paper lantern to light up an entire place.

    We're using Accel rentals too and they suggested 1 30" japanese lantern for our tent. I'm adding tivoli lights just coz I want the lighting to be more dramatics and the tivoli lights go really well with out theme.
