Often set within idyllic, expansive, rolling countryside or overlooking a majestic stately home, marquees offer an incredible quintessential, enchanting, english garden wedding, where you literally build your vision from the ground up. A field becomes a breathtaking wedding venue in the space of a matter of days, a transformation which is simply magical, as you curate a completely bespoke experience with your love story at the centre.

We bring our visionary design eye and logistical expertise to support your plans, working alongside you to curate a guest journey, plan wet weather contingencies, power, toilets and all the not so glamorous elements involved. Eliminating the overwhelm and steadily working with you to systematically form decisions as we curate your unique venue.

We’d love to support you with your marquee wedding plans for 2026, be it within the grounds of a beautiful venue or on the lawn of your own home. Get in touch via the link in bio to discover more.

Event lighting

To get the best outdoor lighting, it’s important to understand your event lighting needs.

Every event is different, and the type of lighting you choose can change the whole feel of your evening.

Here’s some things to consider:
1. Know Your Venue
2. Decide on Your Event’s Style
3. Think About Practical Needs
4. Consider the Setup and Takedown.
5. Think about the Power Source

Challenging site access?

With correct and careful planning it can be done!

This fantastic party was arranged in a remote private property, overlooking a valley and situated on steep banks.

The flattest area to pitch a marquee was amongst a small orchard.

A road tow trailer mounted generator was used and parked at the top of the site and with the right cabling and distribution was bought down to the marquee to power catering suppliers, all the decorative lighting and audio as well as site lighting for guests to move around safely late into the summers evening.

It was essential that we conducted site visits and liaised with each of the suppliers for the power requirements whilst ensuring safety.

We provided the generator, distribution, lighting and we remained on site as Technical Event support for total peace of mind for our clients.

What an incredible night with performances from The Beatles tribute band, NOasis and an epic performance on the decks by their very own

The guest reactions always make our day!
