Planning a wedding means juggling a million details. The venue, the dress, the playlist, the guest list—but what about the restrooms? It’s not the most glamorous part of planning, but it’s one of the most important. If your venue doesn’t offer indoor bathrooms (or just doesn’t have enough), you’ll need to rent a portable toilet.
But not all portable toilets are created equal—especially when it comes to weddings. The good news? You’ve got beautiful, high-comfort options that go way beyond the typical plastic box in a field.
First—Consider the Vibe of Your Wedding
Are you hosting a black-tie affair under twinkling lights? A rustic barn wedding with a touch of boho? Or a backyard celebration with close friends and family?
The tone and formality of your wedding should guide the type of portable toilet you rent. If your guests are dressed in formalwear, they’re going to appreciate a clean, spacious restroom with real sinks and mirrors.
That’s where restroom trailers come in.
Why Restroom Trailers Are the Go-To for Weddings
While the word “trailer” might not scream elegance, restroom trailers are anything but basic. They’re sleek, climate-controlled units with private stalls, running water, and upscale finishes. Think: granite-style counters, full-length mirrors, LED lighting, and flushing toilets.
Key benefits include:
- Comfort – Air conditioning or heating depending on the season
- Cleanliness – Fully stocked with hand soap, paper towels, and toiletries
- Aesthetics – Neutral, wedding-friendly designs that blend into any venue
- Privacy – Separate entrances for men and women, locking doors, and spacious interiors
Your guests will thank you. And you’ll rest easy knowing you’ve covered a crucial (and often overlooked) part of the event.
Matching the Right Size Trailer to Your Guest Count
Here’s a common question: “How many portable toilets do I need?”
As a rule of thumb, you’ll want at least one toilet for every 50 guests if your wedding runs 3–5 hours. Add more if your event is longer, if alcohol is being served, or if you have a larger guest list.
Quick size guide for restroom trailers:
- 50–100 guests: 2-stall or 3-stall trailer
- 100–250 guests: 4-stall or 6-stall trailer
- 250+ guests: 8+ stall trailer or multiple units
Don’t forget to factor in your vendors and staff—they’ll need access too!
ADA Compliance and Guest Accessibility
If you’re hosting elderly guests, guests with disabilities, or even parents with small children, consider renting an ADA-compliant portable toilet or accessible restroom trailer. These units are spacious, wheelchair-friendly, and built with ramps and safety bars.
Inclusivity matters—and it speaks volumes when your event considers everyone’s comfort.
Location, Power, and Planning Logistics
When it comes to placement, keep the portable toilet close enough to be convenient—but far enough to stay discreet. You can even create a designated “comfort station” with signage, lighting, and decorative barriers to blend the trailer seamlessly into your event space.
Things to keep in mind:
- Level ground: Trailers need stable, flat surfaces
- Power supply: Most restroom trailers require electricity (we’ll help you coordinate a generator if needed)
- Water hookup: Optional, but helpful—many trailers are fully self-contained
At A Royal Flush, we help you sort through these logistics ahead of time, so setup is seamless and stress-free.
When a Basic Portable Toilet Might Still Be a Fit
For ultra-casual backyard weddings or events with fewer than 50 guests, a standard portable toilet may be just fine. We offer upgraded single units that are clean, ventilated, and well-maintained.
That said, we always recommend restroom trailers for any wedding where comfort, cleanliness, and style are a top priority (which… is pretty much every wedding, right?).
