FAQ – Marquee Hire Knowledge Base
Can I pay monthly towards the cost of my marquee hire?
Yes, we get asked this one a lot so we started our Easy Payment Plan.
If your wedding is in 12 months, we divide the marquee hire price by 11 and each month you pay that towards your marquee hire cost.
The reason it is divided by 11 and not 12 is that the marquee hire price needs to be paid in full one calendar month before the hire date.
And to make your life even easier, your first two months payments are also your deposit, so you don’t even have to pay a big deposit.
Call or email our team for more details and to work out your monthly payments and secure your dream wedding venue today.

Should I insure my Event/Wedding?
Yes, we highly recommend insuring your event, it will ensure all suppliers’ costs are covered should the event not go ahead for any reason, weather, illness, etc. We can recommend a couple of event insurance brokers who know the marquee industry.
During my hire, can i host more than one event?
Yes, If the marquee is still erected on your site, you can make use of it, normally the tent will be erected one day before the event and taken down one or two days after. This leaves you free to host more than the main event in your marquee, why not hire our 8 Burner Gas BBQ and put on a 2nd event.
