Wedding Marquee Hire

in West Sussex

A wedding marquee gives you more freedom than a traditional venue – it’s a space you can truly make your own.

From intimate garden weddings to larger celebrations with dining, drinks and a dancefloor, we can create a space that works around your day, your guests and the atmosphere you want to create.

A Beautiful Alternative to a Traditional Wedding Venue

A marquee gives you opportunities that fixed venues don’t. You can build the day around what you actually want.

Our stretch marquees are designed to sit naturally within their surroundings rather than feeling dropped in. Their soft, flowing shape creates a more relaxed feel than a typical structured marquee, while still giving you and your guests a beautiful, covered space.

We’ve arranged marquee weddings everywhere from smaller back gardens to larger rural locations around Chichester and the South Downs. We’re used to making different types of spaces work, including areas you might not immediately think of as event-ready.

Your Wedding, Your Marquee

Every wedding is different, so we keep things flexible.

Some couples know exactly what they want. Others come to us with a guest list, a location and a few ideas. We work with you to create a setup that fits your space, your plans and the atmosphere you want for the day.

We Take Care of the Marquee. You Enjoy the Day.

There’s already enough to think about when planning a wedding. The marquee side of things doesn’t need to add to that.

We take care of everything from planning and installation through to pack down. By the time you arrive on the day, everything is set up and ready, no last-minute rushing around.

Depending on what you need, we can also provide:

  • Lighting, including festoon and fairy lights
  • Flooring and dancefloors
  • Tables, chairs and other furniture
  • Bars and cocktail tables
  • Heating
  • Luxury lavatories
  • Catering tents
  • Additional marquee sides and clear window walls

You can hire individual items alongside your marquee or talk to us about a more complete package.

“We used Lee and his team to supply a stretched tent for our wedding. Lee was fantastic from start to finish and the tent was fantastic. Lee also arranged our tables, chairs and dancefloor. Nothing was a problem. The team turned up a couple of days before to put it up, a real professional outfit. We had some bad weather but Lee assured us we could put sides onto it and he continued to check weather and popped by to make sure the marquee was perfect. A great service I can Highly recommend.”

Experience Behind the Scenes

There’s a big difference between hiring a marquee and having a setup that actually works smoothly on the day.

We’ve worked across West Sussex, Hampshire, London and the Home Counties for many years, so we’re experienced in dealing with the practical side as well as the creative.

Access, ground conditions, timings and weather are all considered early on, rather than being left until the last minute.

We can’t promise sunshine (if only), but we can make sure you and your guests are covered and comfortable whatever happens.

No Wedding Price Hikes. Just Honest Pricing.

Unlike some companies, we don’t charge more just because it’s a wedding. Our stretch tents are priced the same for every type of event.

And if you find a genuine like-for-like local quote, we’ll beat it. Promise.

Just the marquee? No problem. That’s all you need to hire from us — or we can help arrange everything else through our trusted suppliers.

Want an accurate quote?

We’ll meet you on site, look at the space and talk through exactly what you want for your special day.

No guesswork. No hidden surprises. Just the right tent at the right price.

It depends on how you’re using the space.

We’ll consider everything from:

  • Guest numbers
  • Seated or standing
  • Tables & seating
  • Bars
  • Dance floors
  • Catering & entertainment

Your guest numbers are the starting point, and we’ll work from there to recommend the right size for your event.

We’ll advise you on what works best for your plans and your budget — no unnecessary space, no unnecessary cost.

In most cases, yes! We can work with a wide range of gardens and outdoor spaces.

Space:
As a guide, we need an area of around 12m x 10m or larger, with at least 3.5m height clearance.

Access:
A 2m-wide gate is ideal for getting our equipment in and out.

Ground conditions:
Grass is perfect, but we can also install on concrete or alongside a building. These installations may cost a little more as we’ll need to use ballast blocks for secure anchoring.

Uneven ground? No problem.
Sloping and uneven ground is usually absolutely manageable — unless your garden is halfway up a hill! 😄

Site visit? Absolutely.

We always insist on a site visit. It allows us to check access, ground conditions, available space and height clearance, so we can recommend the right solution and give you an accurate quote.

Every site is different — we make sure yours is right before the big day.

Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered!

Stretch tents are designed to keep your guests dry, comfortable and protected from the elements. And one of their biggest advantages is that we can adapt them to the weather.

For our 18m x 12m stretch tents, we have wall options. If rain or wind is approaching, we can lower all four corners to create a protective dome effect, or drop three sides to give additional shelter while keeping the space open.

We also offer flooring for all our tents, so your guests can stay comfortable whatever the weather. Walls are currently available on our 18m x 12m tents.

What if the weather gets worse?

We monitor the weather every day and regularly check the tents and conditions before and during your event.

Our equipment is insured for winds up to 45mph, but we would never operate at that limit. Safety always comes first.

If winds reach 35mph, we’ll apply storm straps and closely monitor the situation. If conditions become unsafe, we’ll lower or take down the marquee.

We’ve been there before…

We’ve experienced four occasions where the wind suddenly picked up significantly.

On one occasion, conditions meant we had to call the event off — safety comes first. On the other three occasions, we remained on site throughout the events, closely monitored the tents and everything went ahead safely.

Whatever the weather, you’re in experienced, safe hands.

Pretty much everything you need to make your event complete!

You can choose exactly what you want — whether that’s one extra or a complete event package.

We can provide or arrange:

  • Bars & bar stools
  • Dance floors
  • Tables & chairs
  • Cocktail tables
  • VIP sofas & furniture
  • Lighting
  • Sound systems
  • DJs
  • Heating
  • Flooring
  • Premium toilets
  • And much more!

Can’t see what you need? Just ask.

If we don’t provide it ourselves, we’ll find it for you through our trusted network of local suppliers.

Whether you want to organise everything yourself or leave the whole package to us, we can make it happen.

One contact. One team. Everything sorted.
