🌧️ How to Create a Rain Plan for Outdoor Events

Because Mother Nature doesn’t care about your party.

Planning an outdoor bash? Whether it’s a birthday, school event, or neighborhood get-together, you need a solid rain plan—just in case. Here’s how to stay ready without losing the fun (or your mind).

1. 🌤️ Check the Forecast—but Don’t Panic

Look ahead, but don’t cancel over a cloudy icon. Weather apps change often, and light drizzle doesn’t always mean disaster. Keep checking 2–3 days before the party.

2. 🏠 Secure a Backup Space (Just in Case)

Have a Plan B in your pocket:

  • Garage or basement for smaller parties

  • Local rec center or indoor venue

  • Large tent or canopy (rent one if needed)

💡 If you’re renting from us, we can help you figure out sizing for tents or switch units last minute!

3. 📦 Have an "Indoor Version" of the Party Ready

If your bounce house can’t be used, keep the energy up with:

  • Indoor games (musical chairs, scavenger hunts, dance contests)

  • A movie corner with popcorn

  • Craft or coloring stations

  • Small prizes or party favors as incentives

4. 💬 Communicate with Guests Early

If weather’s looking iffy, send out a quick message the day before:

“Hey friends! We’re keeping an eye on the weather—party is still on, but we have a fun rain plan just in case. Will keep you posted!”

Being proactive = less stress.

5. ☔ Know Your Rental Options

With Bouncy Rentals LLC, we’re flexible:

  • Canopies/tents available for rent

  • Last-minute inflatable swaps (dry to wet combos, etc.)

  • Reschedule options available for rainouts (just ask!)

We’ll always work with you to make sure the party goes on—even if the weather’s not perfect.

6. ✅ Final Checklist for Rainy-Day Readiness:

  • Umbrellas & ponchos on standby

  • Extra towels (especially if kids get wet)

  • Dry storage for food & gifts

  • Games, music, & snacks indoors

  • Flexibility & good vibes
