Jun 20, 2010What size marquee do I require?

 

What size marquee do I require? This question is something the guys at Your Marquee frequently get asked. It’s to be expected, Your Marquee Ltd are experts at marquee events and as such they have experience of just what size marquee creates the perfect cosiness! It’s the balance between too tight, or too much space that you don’t know what to do with!

There are some basic rules however....

Thinking about a dance floor? Great, but remember that typically this will take up one bay of the marquee.

Tables and Chairs? The basic rule is that per bay of 9m wide marquee you can get three 5ft round tables (each seating approx 10 guests), so 30 guests per 9m x 3m bay.

Thinking of having a catering marquee? Again, this is not a problem – this can be inside the main marquee with an ivory curtain divide so that it is completely hidden (this will take up approximately one bay of the marquee) or alternatively this can be in a totally separate marquee.

Fancy a Lounge area? Your Marquee can offer a range of event furniture and luxurious linings which can create a secluded relaxation area in your marquee. Typically this will take up one bay of the marquee.

 

You may of course wish to have all of the above options. Fantastic news! Let the guys at Your Marquee take over from here and you will be offered free advice and a free no obligation site visit so that you are sure every last detail has been planned for!

 

If you need any advice as to the size of the marquee you require then the guys at Your Marquee Ltd are always on hand to offer their advice gained from providing over 300 marquee weddings. All you need to tell them  is how many seated or standing guests will be coming to your event and the Project Managers at Your Marquee Ltd will do the rest!

May 15, 2010Your Marquee Ltd's Wedding Reception vs. Hotel Wedding Reception

The short answer is that there are pros and cons of both types of wedding reception. However, if you get it right with a marquee wedding reception then the result is far more special than any hotel venue.

Getting it right.....

Your Marquee Ltd have only the most premium quality marquees which were renewed in 2010 so you can rest assured they are the best for hire.

The guys at Your Marquee Ltd have completed approximately 300 marquee wedding receptions to date.

Marquees can be extremely keenly priced while still offering a luxury environment.

A marquee allows you to take control of your reception; you can choose exactly how it is decorated, exactly when people go home (there is no ‘throwing out time’), there is no corkage on your alcohol as this can be provided cheaply yourselves and what’s more your marquee can be erected at your own home or a stately home of your choosing.

May 06, 2010Your Marquee Ltd - helping you choose the right location..........

Marquees can be erected almost anywhere, this might include your garden, a village green or a stately home.
