How large should my trellis be for trumpet vines?

I would love to plant some orange and yellow trumpet vines that I got in trade last year. I emailed a gardening buddy a pic of my new metal trellis and she voiced a concern that my 4' x 3' trellis might not be able to handle the weight of a trumpet vine and was concerned that the trumpet vine might actually bend the metal trellis. So what kind/how large of a trellis do you need to grow trumpet vine on. And does trumpet vine live as a perennial or is it an annual? And how big does clematis get? How big of a trellis does it need? I am thinking about growing white moonvine, pink moonvine (large fuzzy seeds), and some morning glories on the trellis - would love opinions on this.

Best to you and many thanks,
