Recommended Wedding Venues
Take a look at our recommended marquee wedding venues across the South East.
Tick the counties on the map that are your preferred locations to highlight some of the venues we have worked at or have been recommended.
Things to consider when researching your ideal marquee wedding venue:
- How long do have access to the site? Marquees typically take at least 1 whole day to install, plus a day for florists/decor, your wedding day and at least a day to break down.
- Does the venue have ample car parking?
- Does the venue include toilet facilities/power? (If not we can supply these)
- Does the venue offer overnight accommodation or nearby accommodation?
- Does the venue allow you to bring in your own wedding suppliers (often known as a “dry hire” venue) or do you have to use their preferred suppliers?
