There are a lot of things to consider when planning an event such as a wedding, corporate party, family reunion - or any celebration for that matter. Choosing the venue is an important one. If you are considering hosting your event outdoors, then there will be decisions to be made about what type of marquee hire is required. Of course, all guests need to be accommodated in comfort and style, but where to start? That’s the difficult part for many planners.
First, you’ll need to determine the number of guests you plan to invite and choose a tent that is large enough. Seems obvious enough as having a marquee that is too small to fit all of the guests will be memorable only for the poor planning that went into it. In addition to determining the number of guests, you must also factor in the type of seating you’ll require. Will guests be seated in rows of folding chairs and witnessing a wedding ceremony? Perhaps they will be seated around tables at a reception dinner or anniversary celebration. Will there also be a buffet table, a serving area or a special table for the guests of honor? There may very well be all three. All these things must be taken into consideration.
There are other aspects to plan for as well. What will the weather be like on the event date you’ve selected? That’s difficult to forecast, perhaps heaters would be a good thing to have on hand. Will there be dancing? If so, track flooring needs to factor in. Proper lighting is also an important component for creating the perfect moment and ensuring the comfort of guests.
