Zephyr Tents

At Zephyr Tents, we specialize in creating unique and elegant outdoor environments for events. We offer an array of products including Sperry Sailcloth Tents, wood shade structures, custom fabrications, and our own line of hardwood flooring. Our commitment to style and durability sets us apart from the ordinary, and we are dedicated to making your event unforgettable.

Our journey began when our founders, Tod and Jennifer Owsley, attended a friend's wedding on the East Coast in 2001. They were introduced to a new style of tent that was both elegant and unique - the Sperry Tent. These tents, designed by New England craftsman and accomplished sail maker Steve Sperry, are set apart from the ordinary with their stylish nautical flair, hand-sewn panels of waterproof fabric, stainless steel grommets, and tent lines with rigging cleats. The wooden support poles are reminiscent of a ship's mast and are hand cut at the Sperry sawmill.

Tod and Jennifer were immediately drawn to this striking alternative and began to introduce West Coast consumers to this beautiful and elegant tent. And so, Zephyr Tents was born.

Jennifer Owsley graduated from Cornell University's School of Hotel Management and moved to San Francisco to pursue a career in the events industry. She worked at the acclaimed Paula LeDuc Fine Catering, handling event production and sales for five years. As General Manager of Best Beverage Catering in San Francisco through the mid-90s, Tod Owsley coordinated major hospitality events such as the Super Bowl 1998 in San Diego, San Francisco's Black and White Ball, and the Major League Baseball World Series Hospitality Village 1998. After more than 20 years in the San Francisco Bay Area, the Owsleys' expertise and professional guidance in the special events industry have brought high degrees of satisfaction and pleasure to their clients.

Together with their amazing team, they welcome the opportunity to assist you for your next celebration. Our team includes Jason Weade, Production Manager, who ensures that everyone and everything is where it should be. He has the ability to handle all the details, both big and small, and is always receiving positive feedback from clients for his exceptional work.

We believe in the power of events to bring people together and create lasting memories. Whether it's an intimate backyard party or an enormous custom wedding production, we are dedicated to making your event a unique and unforgettable experience.
