Another lovely review from one of our 2024 brides ✨

"We would highly recommend a Bears and Butterflies wedding experience. We hired the wedding tent alongside some bridal party guest tents for the evening of our wedding. We did not want our night to end therefore this was a great way to prolong the day for as long as possible.

"The service was fantastic from start to finish. I liked that the team came out and checked the site was appropriate for what we wanted.

"What a great idea and a wonderful service! We would highly recommend this company! Thank you Bears and Butterflies."

Our tents are a great way to continue the party into the night with your special guests 🥂

Hello everyone 👋

We thought we'd give you all a little insight into us, Steve and Gemma, the team behind Bears and Butterflies ✨

We first met in 2004 whilst living and working in careers in London. In 2005 we were offered the chance to run Gemma’s family’s business, a 5 star, 30 acre caravan and camping site in North Yorkshire. We jumped at the opportunity and never looked back. After 13 successful years the business was sold in 2018. Moving to York and looking for a change of pace, we quickly established ourselves and started to look for a business that we could transfer our existing skills to but above all our passions!

In the summer of 2019 Steve worked for a leading marquee company in Yorkshire and immediately fell in love with the wedding and events industry. Business ideas flowed and we soon discovered Bears and Butterflies for sale! In a matter of moments we knew it was a perfect fit for us! A deal was struck so Bears and Butterflies was quickly relocated from Devon to York.

Since the summer of 2020 we have doubled the fleet size and now boast 50 bell tents, in 3 sizes that can sleep up to 150 guests! We pride ourselves on delivering a personal experience to all our customers, you only deal with Steve and Gemma from initial enquiry, all the way through until we pack the last tent peg away!

We just love it! Working in the fields from April to October building bell tent villages and meeting lovely people. We work to deliver an amazing service to our clients every time – we know we are only as good as our last job!
