Part of your job when supplying a marquee is to help plan the event as a whole. Remember it’s in your interest for the event to go well and smoothly as that is likely to generate future bookings and expand your business in the best way – by word of mouth recommendations.

Just about every job is a compromise between what your client wants and what their budget is. So is it possible to have a marquee wedding on a budget? Yes absolutely but there’s things you need to make your customer aware of. The main way for them to save money is to have an unlined […]

This is something we learnt over the years. It’s very difficult keeping marquee linings clean, especially when you’re flat out and they’re going up and down every weekend. To start with we used a commercial cleaning company who turned round the linings within 2 days, the only problem with that is the linings came back […]

Marquee linings give a real wow factor to any marquee but they do need looking after. This means keeping them clean and as crease-free as possible. Please note this advice is for the luxury marquee linings that we (and one or two others) manufacture here in the UK. It is not suitable for the cheap […]
