How to pull off a garden marquee wedding

June 27, 2016 Garden Designs

More and more brides are opting for outdoor wedding receptions in marquees. What is it that attracts women so much? Well, on the one hand, the unparalleled beauty. Outdoor sites such as city gardens are simply gorgeous and they evoke emotion. On the other hand, outdoor weddings give you the opportunity to take full control. You enjoy great flexibility when it comes to interior and exterior decoration. If you are strongly considering this type of reception, then you should know that there is a significant amount of physical work involved in the planning process. To make things easier, consider the following wedding planning points:

Choose a marquee supplier

If you have a little bit of space at home, then a garden party wedding marquee is the perfect option. These tents come in all sizes, shapes and materials, so you can surely find a style that work on your surface. The tent can be set up at your home or at your parents. Either way, it is large enough to accommodate the number of guests, so you will not have to use your house as a reception spot. A good idea is to work with a rental company such as Cameo Event Hire. The more experienced your supplier is, the better. You should not hire the first company that you come across. You should carefully choose your marquee company because the wrong people can turn your wedding into a disaster.

Have a backup plan

What many people tend to do is rely only on their tent, which is actually a mistake. If the weather gets particularly wet, then there will be issues. Let’s say that it will rain heavily. Even the strongest tent will not withstand harsh weather. Therefore, you should have a backup plan. Consider booking a nearby restaurant, so that your guest will have a place to eat, drink and be cheerful. You never know what can happen.

Think about decoration

Your garden marquee wedding will be memorable provided that you use the right decorations. When decorating your garden marquee, take into consideration the time of the year. The flowers or trees that will be in bloom will dictate your choice of colours of the fabric you will drape from the ceiling. Just remember that you have to enhance the wedding’s design and create a welcoming atmosphere. You can achieve a wonderful colour effect with lighting as well. Lights look effective when they are combined with the colour scheme and the garden features. It is clear that the lighting has to be in tone with the décor.

Ensure a lot of power

While you can use the supplies in your house, a safer option would be to hire a generator. Take into account that you will have to provide the caterers fresh water in order to cook, not to mention that you will not want your lights to go off in the middle of the party. You will have to figure out how much power the suppliers will need and to make sure that the generator is not placed in the path from the kitchen.

The necessities

The great thing about an outdoor wedding is that you have freedom when it comes to creating the menu. You will have to ensure that the caterers supply the silverware, glassware and cutlery. You have to book at least 12 months in advance because all the good caterers will already be taken by the time you have your wedding ceremony. Remember to: rent restrooms if there are none nearby. While they may not be top of mind, toilets are really important.
