Planning an outdoor wedding? From stunning barn venues to beachfront ceremonies, outdoor weddings offer breathtaking scenery but often lack proper restroom facilities. Renting luxury portable restrooms ensures your guests have a comfortable, hygienic, and elegant experience.
Here’s everything you need to know about renting restrooms for your big day, including pricing, options, and a handy checklist.

Before booking, ask yourself these key questions:

✅ Do you need ADA-accessible restrooms? (Required for public events)
💡 Pro Tip: For weddings with 100+ guests, a luxury restroom trailer is the best option for style, cleanliness, and convenience.
