Trailer or Standard Units?
For a backyard, estate, barn or beach-adjacent wedding, most couples want restrooms that feel like the venue, not the job site down the street. That's what a Luxury Restroom Trailer is for: flushing toilets, vanity sinks, lighting and air conditioning, behind a real door with steps.
Standard units still have a place at weddings, usually for staff, vendors and caterers, or as overflow at a large reception. An Accessible Unit is worth adding whenever guests include wheelchair or walker users.
How Many Stations for Your Guest Count
Florida's special-event table is the legal floor. For an event serviced once a day, it calls for 2 portable restrooms for up to 250 people over 5 hours or less, and 3 for 6 to 10 hours. At 500 guests, it's 2 to 4, depending on the hours.
A wedding usually deserves more than the minimum. Receptions have waves (after the ceremony, after dinner, late in the night), and an open bar raises demand. Our trailers run from 2 stations for intimate weddings to 10 stations for large galas and festivals. Tell us your guest count, the hours, and whether alcohol is served, and we'll recommend the size.

What the Site Needs
A restroom trailer needs a reasonably level spot it can be backed into, with a clear path for our truck. Most need a power source for the lights and air conditioning. We'll walk through your venue's setup when we quote, including where power is and how far the trailer will be from it.
If the venue is a private home or estate, check soft ground, low branches, gates and tight turns on the drive before the day. It's far easier to plan around them than to discover them with a trailer on the hitch.
Where to Put It
Close enough that guests don't walk across a dark lawn, far enough that it isn't in the photos. A spot near the reception but screened by landscaping, a tent side or a corner of the house usually works. Light the path if the party runs past sunset.
Keep the entry level and easy to reach, especially for older guests. If you're adding an accessible unit, place it on firm, level ground with a smooth route to the door.
Before You Book
Winter and spring are peak wedding and event season in the Palm Beaches, from Wellington's equestrian season to the big waterfront shows, so book early for dates between November and April.
