What do I need for my event?
Planning your event can involve lots of decisions, many of which you may know little about at the start. We can help you work out what type of marquee you need and what equipment you will need to put in it - just follow the guidelines below. If in doubt at anytime please contact us where we can talk through your requirements and arrange a site visit if necessary.
Step 1 - Where am I going to put the marquee?
Ideally you will have a big flat grassed area to position your marquee. If you can, measure the area you would like to use so you know the maximum size of marquee you can accommodate.
Undulating,rough or sloping ground is usually ok but worth talking though with us on the implications. Also worth talking to us if the marquee needs to be joined onto a bulding, or if trees or shrubs may be in the way (we have in the past had small trees inside the marquee as an added feature!). We generally do not put our marquees on hardstanding.
Our marquees do not have to be a rectangular - we can put 2 or more together to build almost any shape to fit the area you have if required.
If you do not have access to a suitable area here are a list of venues you can hire that we regularly work with where we can put our marquees:-
Chaucer Barn - Gresham, North Norfolk
The Old Rectory, Great Melton, Norwich
Albion Days Woodland Weddings, Great Melton, Norwich
Somerleyton Dukes Head, Somerleyton,Lowestoft
