Hamilton Tents and Events is definitely your best bet if your looking for good prices. Most Hamilton wedding tent rental companies overcharge for their wedding tents in my opinion.

I had a wedding last June and ended up choosing them for my wedding tent rental. I couldn’t have been more pleased with their service. At first I was clueless on what I needed, but after talking to one of their tent rental and event professionals, I knew what kind of wedding tent was best for my wedding and they had it installed and picked-up exactly when I needed.

Check out their site, they have all their prices listed along with the type of commercial tent rentals they have to offer. If you feel like it’s all new to you and need some help deciding, don’t hesitate to give them a call at 866-377-4447.

Hope your wedding is amazing!

In 1791, Hamilton became involved in an affair with Maria Reynolds that badly damaged his reputation. Reynolds’ husband, James, blackmailed Hamilton for money, threatening to inform Hamilton’s wife. But this wasn’t what caused him to resign as Treasury Secy.

“Hamilton’s conduct as Secretary was repeatedly investigated in Congress; some of the most serious charges emerged in the spring of 1794. In addition to the Reynolds affair, mentioned below, an incident from 1790 then came to light: Congress had appropriated money to pay the European creditors of the United States, and Hamilton had diverted part of the sum to domestic expenditure. Hamilton claimed that he had been authorized to act by Washington, but could provide no evidence. When Washington was consulted, he could not remember the transaction, but was certain that he would have made the condition that the change be consistent with legislation. Hamilton wrote an irate letter to Washington; he was very angry not to be trusted unconditionally. Hamilton resigned as Secretary of the Treasury on December 1, 1794, immediately before Congress met again.”

Hamilton was in part responsible for the vote giving Jefferson, not Burr, the presidency in 1800 (under the original format that the highest vote-getter would be president and 2d would be VP; Jefferson and Burr had been tied). After Burr was not selected as VP in 1804, Burr ran for governor of New York, but was defeated in part because of Hamilton’s organizing against him. So Burr and Hamilton were political rivals for a long time. Each believed the other to be dangerous to the health of the US.

Why did they duel:
Soon after the gubernatorial election in New York—in which Morgan Lewis, greatly assisted by Hamilton, defeated Aaron Burr—the Albany Register published Charles D. Cooper’s letter, citing Hamilton’s opposition to Burr and alleging that Hamilton expressed “a still more despicable opinion” of the Vice President at an upstate New York dinner party. Burr, sensing an attack on his honor, and surely still stung by the political defeat, demanded an apology. Hamilton refused.

A letter from Hamilton indicated that he had planned to miss Burr. Apparently he didn’t do so in the manner generally recognized, that would have told Burr, I am aiming to miss you. So Burr fired at him and wounded him mortally, whether on purpose or not we don’t know. Hamilton died the next day.

Moral of the story: be careful. Who you make mad at you.

Alexander Hamilton is considered the father of the
New York Stock Exchange. Alexander wanted a strong
central government ,and Alexander wanted to see the
rise of large corporations. Thomas Jefferson, on the other
hand, wanted a weak central government,strong state
governments, and an agrarian Republic. In 1877,the
Industrial Revolution was in the nascent stage in the United
States, and our Republic had a stronger central government
in 1877 due to the Civil War. In 1877,Alexander Hamilton’s
vision was closer to reality in the United States.
