The wedding season countdown begins! Book your Marquee Wedding with Tent-It

With spring just around the corner, wedding season is fast approaching — and now is the perfect time to finalise plans for your marquee wedding.


A marquee for your wedding can be an excellent choice over a "rinse and repeat" wedding venue. It allows you complete creative control to have a space perfectly designed around your vision.


And it doesn't need to be stressful.


Here are some of the most important considerations for a wedding marquee:


Luxury Loos


Absolutely critical to an elegant, high-end marquee wedding is ensuring that you have sufficient, high-quality facilities for your guests. Our Luxury Loos include:


Luxury toilet facilities for marquee weddings

  • Heating

  • Mirrors

  • Proper LED lighting

  • Premium finishes


Our marquee toilet facilities can be placed next to the tent, or, for a better experience for your guests, we can incorporate them inside the marquee!



Marquee Heating


Heating is a must: even in the hottest days of summer, when the sun goes down, tents can get cold! So make sure you have plenty of heating included so that you and your guests are warm and comfortable no matter what.



Marquee Lighting


Lighting is a great form of customisation not usually offered at regular wedding venues. We can supply:


  • Elegant chandeliers

  • Festoon string lights

  • Warm white fairy lights

  • Coloured LED uplighters which are excellent for the evening atmosphere!

We also recommend considering lighting not only inside the tent but outside as well. Our "go-to" is a charming perimeter of festoon lights suspended on poles to create walkways, or beautifully illuminated entrances for a dramatic first impression.



Why not make use of our 3D marquee wedding design and floor planning software?


One of the biggest benefits of a marquee wedding is that the space is designed around your day — not the other way round.


Using our 3D design and floor planning software, we can help you avoid some common wedding pitfalls:


  • A marquee that's too large and feels empty

  • A marquee that's too small and feels cramped

  • A bar placed too far from (or too close to) the dance floor

  • Not enough room for your band, florist installations or statement décor








The flexibility of a marquee wedding allows you to avoid that awkward room turnaround between the ceremony and the meal!


Wedding venues have a room with a fixed layout but we design a 'room' around your wedding. With a fully customised marquee, you can ensures the flow of your big day feels natural and effortless.


As your celebration is taking place in the same location, a lot of time is saved as there is no need for huge room set-ups or the dismantling of specialist accoutrements. Unless that's what you want, of course!



Tent-It offer Multi-day Usage of your Marquee


One of the biggest unknown advantages of a marquee?


It's yours for as long as you need it.


Want it installed a few days in advance so you can decorate at your own pace? No problem. Fancy hosting a relaxed post-wedding breakfast the next morning? Absolutely. Planning a full-blown party the day after? Even better!
