Our Story
We believe the best memories are made under open skies, surrounded by the people you love.
The Founder
I'm JT — a 19-year-old entrepreneur, Waukee native, and former Division I soccer player who traded the pitch for something I'm even more passionate about: building businesses that serve this community.
Growing up in Central Iowa, I always felt like we were missing something. Other parts of the country had these amazing outdoor experience companies — glamping, starlit nights, backyard escapes. We had the land, the open skies, and the spirit for it. We just needed someone to bring it to life.
That's why I started Wildlight Rentals. I wanted Central Iowa families, couples, and friend groups to have access to a truly unforgettable outdoor experience — delivered right to their door, no travel required.
Every setup is personal to me. I handle it myself, and I take pride in every detail.
Every booking is handled personally. No middlemen, no franchises.
Born and raised here. This community is why I do what I do.
From the bedding to the lighting, nothing is left to chance.
