How many guests can I accommodate?
It depends upon the size of the marquee and whether your guests will be seated around tables or standing. However, our approximate guidelines are as follows (Please note these marquees can be linked together to meet your specific requirements):
28ft x 38ft marquee (up to 80 seated and 100 standing)
28ft x 28ft marquee (up to 40 seated and 60 standing)
20ft x 30ft marquee (up to 48 seated and 60 standing)
20ft x 20ft marquee (up to 32 seated and 40 standing)
Are they waterproof?
Yes...
How do the side walls attach?
The side walls fit nicely into the arches in the marquee. There is a cord that runs along the inside line of the arches and the side walls clip onto the cord. They can also be pegged to the ground if required
Do I pay extra for sidewalls?
No, we bring them as matter of course
Can I attach them myself?
If you choose later on to attach them they should take no longer than a couple of minutes each
Will I need carpeting?
It very much depends on the kind of summer it will be, the type of event and the condition of the grass. Most Weddings require carpeting, but many of the less formal events that we cover work perfectly well without
Can I decorate them myself?
You are more than welcome to decorate the marquees yourself, however we would request that use string where ever possible as opposed to tape.
Do you organise heating and lighting?
Yes we can organsie both heating and lighting.
Do you hire toilets?
We do not get involved in toilet hire.
How many guests can I seat around a table?
As a general rule:
8-10 around a 5ft table
6-8 around a 4ft table
6 on a 6ft trestle table (plus one either end)
Can they be set up on hard surfaces?
Unfortunately they are unable to set up on anything other than grass.
When are the Marquees Erected and Dismantled?
Typically marquees are erected the day before the event and dismantled the day after. Additional hire time is possible by prior arrangement.
