Tips for planning a Summer Marquee Party

A Summer Marquee Party can be the perfect way to celebrate an event with your guests. Weddings, birthdays, engagements and christening parties can all be enjoyed in a marquee.

You can make the most of the lovely weather and create a relaxing environment for your friends and family. We have put together some of our top tips for planning a knockout marquee event this summer.

Choose the right marquee

Choosing the right marquee is key to setting up the perfect setting for your guests. The size and style will depend on the number of guests you are hosting and the type of party you want to throw. Will it be a sit-down event with food and drinks? Will you want to dance until midnight? We can help you to plan your space so that every activity is catered for.

Choose the right decor

There are so many ways you can decorate your marquee, and luckily we work with one of the best marquee interior design companies in the country! If you are hosting a christening, engagement or wedding summer party, you might want a cream or white interior complete with a chandelier. If you plan to party into the night, you might want our twinkling starry night canopy and a disco dancefloor. There are other options like a bespoke Moroccan wonderland, to find out more, please get in touch.

Think about your guests

When you are planning your party, you need to think about the guests and what they will need. You might want to consider a comfortable seating area for older guests, tables and chairs for dining, a dancefloor if you are planning to dance, or even a play area for the little ones. Amenities like loos are also important to keep your guests happy!

Choose the right floor

Luckily we have two types of floor available. Hessian matting and a boarded carpeted floor. In summer many people opt for the hessian floor as the weather is good. But others prefer to pick a carpeted floor, we can discuss your options and party specs to make sure you choose the right one.

Lighting is everything!

Marquees are great for enjoying the outside inside, and this means picking a marquee that is well lit. In the daytime, you can have open sides or clear window panels to let in the light. In the evening you will need to ensure that you have adequate lighting set up to keep the party going. We can provide the lighting you need to host the perfect summer marquee party.
