Marquee Hire


The right choice of marquee goes a long way in defining your style and giving a special touch to your special occasion. When you plan to organise your wedding ceremony, always keep in mind that the marquees are the ideal venues that come without any ‘strings attached’.

While hiring a marquee for your wedding, you should definitely look into the following important points:

  1. The fabric should be able to withstand all kinds of the weather conditions. It is advisable to buy an optional canopy for the marquee. The canopy – a kind of cover – is erected over the roof stroke plus it also comes down to the entrance. This ensures that your guests do not face any problems during adverse weather situations.

  2. You should also check whether the marquee is leak-proof. Ensure that it is made from a single piece of material and not fixed with tape or glue. The material should also be water-resistant so that it does not give away in rainy conditions.

  3. When you hire a marquee from an agency, do ensure that the people who come to erect it for your special occasion are professionals trained in this job. And, the company should provide these services without charging anything extra.

  4. Calculate the number of invitees in advance. On the basis of this figure, choose the size of the marquee you wish to hire. Big-framed marquees are offered in assorted sizes and easily seat about 300 guest. In fact, two marquees may also be attached together to generate more room.

  5. Marquees are available in a wide range of layouts like, long, L-shaped, square, classical, romantic, themed, etc. Pick the one that is closest to your wedding theme.

Most marquee hire agencies offer the following kinds of marquees for wedding purposes:

Pole Tents – The most easily available option, pole tents are the traditional forms of marquees. Perfect for classic-styled events, they can be laid out in an impressive format to complement the whole occasion. Moreover, tents are easily affordable and do not look too gaudy.

Frame Marquees – These are clearspan structures that do not include any central poles. They have low roofs and do not need too much of space around them. This allows the user to fill up extra space and include an increased number of guests in the occasion.

Ethnic Tents – Ideal for unconventional events, ethnic tents are best-suited for people who like to be different. Decorated in ethnic styles and colors, they provide for a homely atmosphere – a welcome attribute for a wedding ceremony.

Before you choose your marquee, it is always advisable to find out about the credentials of the company in question. You can talk to their previous clients and ensure that they are reliable enough. Not just that, the company should provide you with a proper backup in case of an emergency.

Even though it sounds simple, choosing a marquee for your wedding can be quite a pain. Therefore, it is better to take your decision in time, so that you can concentrate on the more important things later.
