Chic Marquees to Hire
Should I Hire A Marquee Now The Summer Is Over?
Most people consider the use of a marquee to be suitable only during the summer months. However even as the nights draw in, hiring a marquee for a party, wedding or any other event is still a viable option. Larger marquees can accommodate some types of patio heaters to help keep the guests warm as the temperature drops, but make sure you ask the marquee hire firm if they can supply heaters rather than using your own. The wrong heater in the wrong marquee could have disastrous consequences so only use heaters provided by the marquee hire company. If you’re hiring a marquee for a party where guests are likely to be dancing the night away, chances are you won’t need any heaters as the guests will generate enough heat and the marquee will keep that heat where it should be, especially where the side walls are utilised.
Hiring a marquee could be a perfect solution if you’re planning on having a house party, but the number of expected guests is more than your house can accommodate. By putting a small party marquee next to the house increases the ‘indoor’ space considerably and is an ideal solution if you’d rather people don’t smoke inside your home. The same idea could also be adopted where a commercial function room is hired. If the layout of the building allows a party marquee could be erected giving some outside space for guests to enjoy whilst remaining undercover.
Wedding marquees don’t get hired as frequently in the winter months for obvious reasons. However with a few well placed heaters and keeping two or three sides in place, wedding marquees in the autumn and winter months can be just as cosy as any function room, and are often far more romantic. There’s something magical about marquees which warms the hearts of your guests in a way that bricks and mortar cannot. It doesn’t matter if some of your guests are more comfortable with their coats on, as this can also happen in many function rooms where the heating system isn’t up to scratch.
Marquee hire doesn’t become a ‘no go’ just because the outside temperature drops and no matter what time of year, it’s usually a more cost effective option than many function rooms. As most of us UK residents are fully aware, it’s probably more likely to rain in the summer than it is in the winter and as mentioned, by hiring a few heaters from the hire company makes party and wedding marquees just as warm and welcoming as they are in the summer months.
