In short: For a party or wedding in Guatemala, rental companies price per item or per table of ten. On 24 September 2026, chairs cost Q12 to Q35 each (about US$1.60-4.60) and a complete table for 10 (table, chairs, linens, tableware, glasses) cost Q600 to Q1,400 (about US$79-183) at Alfa y Omega, before delivery and set-up. A 3 x 6 m canopy pack with a table, 8 chairs and a small sound system was Q1,700 a day plus a Q800 deposit.

USD figures use the Banguat reference rate of Q7.63682 per US dollar on 24 September 2026, rounded. See today’s exchange rate.

Who publishes prices

Most Guatemalan rental companies we checked, such as Alquileres Mi Fiesta and the rental listings on Expo Boda, publish no prices on their websites. Alfa y Omega Alquileres y Banquetes (0 Avenida 5-35, zona 9, Guatemala City) is the exception: it publishes per-item and per-package prices. The canopy price below comes from a seller on MiMarket, the Micoope cooperative’s online marketplace. Use these as benchmarks when other companies quote.
