There are many companies offering marquee hire in all areas of the United Kingdom, from Cornwall & Devon, across to Essex and up north across the West Midlands and in Scotland. The popularity of marquees for such events as weddings, private parties and corporate events has meant that some companies offer their services further afield or new tent hire companies have been setup in some areas of the United Kingdom to cope with demand.
Marquees Devon
There are many ways of finding good quality marquees in the UK. You can choose to search for local hirers in business phone directories, associated magazines, take suggestions from friends and family or search on the internet. The best way in my opinion for finding localised hire companies is by using marquee hire website directories. By using website directories, you can easily find what you are looking for, review the company's location, view their website and contact them for a quotation.
Marquee Hire Services
Different hire companies specialise in different services, but most offer the 4 main types of marquee hire, such as:
Corporate Marquee Hire
Wedding Marquee Hire
Party Marquee Hire
In house Marquee Hire
1. Corporate Marquee Hire
This type of marquee is designed for corporate events such as promotional events for business and commerce. Typically this type of marquee is white in colour, but some hire companies offer different colours depending upon the nature of your corporate event.
Marquees are ideal for corporate events because they offer several benefits over other types of event venue. For instance marquees can be expanded in size and shape either by adding adjoining canopies or additional smaller marquees. This is of particular use if you change the layout of your corporate event to accommodate additional seating or need space for caterers to prep food service. Other benefits include the fact that corporate marquees present a good impression of your company as being a modern, forward thinking company and may even give the impression that your organisation is larger that it really is.
2. Wedding Marquee Hire
Wedding marquees have been popular for many years and there is still few better venues to choose from than a marquee for weddings and reception parties. Marquees allow your whole wedding party to be within one communal area, meaning you can see all your family and friends around you. This helps create a friendly and memorable atmosphere at your wedding.
Marquees are ideal for wedding venues because they allow you to personalise your special day right down to the last detail. You can easily plan everything from the layout of seating, staging, the location of your disco or wedding entertainment, floral arrangements, lighting and background music when hiring a wedding marquee. In most cases marquee hire companies offer a wedding planning service to help you with arranging your special day. Those hire companies who don't offer the full wedding planning and marquee package are usually able to advise you of suitable associated hire companies in your local area to help you organise things yourself.
3. Party Marquee Hire
Marquees are suitable for all kinds of parties from formal occasions such as graduation ceremonies, wedding reception parties and Christmas staff parties to informal family occasions such as 18th birthday celebrations and home-comings.
Hiring a party marquee for your family gathering or work related party is a great idea because it offers you a venue space that you can personalise for your event. With the use of disco lighting, interior décor and visual displays you can easily transform marquees into party themed venue of your very own. In addition by hiring a disc jockey or a live band or comedian you can keep your party guests entertained within your party marquee venue.
A party marquee can easily be expanded in shape or portioned off to allow for party chill-out areas, cloakrooms or areas for party catering staff to prepare and serve food and drinks.
4. In house Marquee Hire
If you have an indoor space in a company warehouse and that you are intending to use for an event such an annual conference or a business awards evening, you can easily transform your indoor space with in house marquees into a professional looking event venue. By using the versatility of marquees inside a warehouse or large barn you can create a more visually pleasing atmosphere for business and family events.
By using in house marquees you can hide the industrial look or a warehouse ceiling and flooring, by erecting a marquee inside it, then by joining the in house marquee entrance to the entrance of the barn or warehouse, you can further enhance you event venue. Guests attending your event will soon forget that they are in a warehouse and will be fooled into thinking they are inside a marquee.
Marquee Hire Directories
By using marquee hire directories to find local marquee hire companies near you, you can easily and quickly locate and contact professional hire companies. Directories list marquee companies in UK regions and typically in alphabetical order making your search as easy as possible. Most marquee directories have a wealth of additional information about marquees and the types of events that they are most suited for.
