Luxury Party Marquee Hire London

It’s getting increasingly harder to find a decent and affordable party venue in London and the surrounding metropolitan area. Most places are booked up for months in advance and competition is high, meaning that prices can soar to ridiculous levels. Also, most venues have fixed prices, set menus and their own furnishings already in place which tends to limit the possibility of a truly bespoke special occasion.

An ideal solution is hiring a marquee for your event. Not only will you have greater flexibility with dates and get to choose your perfect location, the range of luxury marquees and accessories available today means that your special event can be transformed into something truly spectacular. Here’s a guide to the options available when hiring a luxury party marquee in London.

Linings marquee hire london

Roof and wall linings can turn a simple marquee into a stunning and luxurious venue. Ivory silk linings are ideal for wedding parties and can then be complimented by the colour theme of your choice.

A black clothed ceiling with bright white LEDs can transform your marquee roof into a starlight night sky. The effect is breathtaking, making it a popular choice for weddings and Christmas parties.

Lighting

Spot lights and flood lights can be used to create the right atmosphere for your party. For an added touch of elegance, choose elaborate chandeliers suspended from the ceiling. Light cubes produce a stunning cool-light effect. Use them around the bar area to create a sophisticated London night club ambience.

Flooring

Polished parquet flooring can be laid to create an elegant dance floor which will compliment any colour scheme. However, for that extra ‘wow’ factor, choose a black and white chequered floor coupled with a starlight night sky ceiling.

Furnishings  marquee hire london

The furnishings you choose can give your party an added touch of luxury and elegance. To create a more intimate atmosphere consider lounge sofas and coffee tables in the bar area. Depending on the style you want to achieve you could choose between chic, modern, traditional or more simple designs of tables, chairs and accessories.

A luxury party marquee hire London gives you the flexibility of creating a truly bespoke look for your London party. The added benefit of optional heating means that you can plan your special event at whatever time of year you wish.

Marquee Magic has a range of luxury marquees and accessories to add a touch of luxury and elegance to your London party. Visit us online and check out our gallery page for further ideas and inspiration.

Marquees Dinner

Wedding Marquee Dinner And Drinks Options

A marquee can be the perfect venue for your wedding, allowing you to choose your location and giving you the flexibility of organising your wedding where and when you want it. Many London wedding venues are booked up months and even years ahead. Most venues only offer a rigid, fixed price wedding package with specific catering menus. Feeding your guests is one of the most important aspects to be considered when organising your wedding. A marquee wedding allows you the flexibility of being as creative, formal or informal as you wish.

Here are a few ideas for your London marquee wedding dinner and drinks options.

Drinks Reception

A pre-dinner drinks reception is a wonderful way of greeting your guests when they arrive. You can opt for champagne cocktails served with a variety of hot and cold canapés served outside (weather permitting) before entering the marquee for the sit down meal. Some couples don’t want a sit down meal and opt for a simpler affair, offering just drinks and canapés.

A Traditional Sit Down Meal

A multi-course meal is still a favourite choice for a more traditional wedding dinner. Starters, sorbets, main courses and desserts are offered with a choice of wines and after-dinner coffee and liquors.

Buffet

An alternative dinner option is a hot and cold buffet. This is a more informal alternative to a traditional wedding meal. Guests can choose what they like from a range of dishes. A buffet gives you a wider variety of menu options such as hot foods or cold finger foods.

Themed Menus

With a marquee wedding you can theme your event as you wish. This also goes for your dinner options. Many couples are shying away from traditional meals and are opting for more informal, international themed menus.

  • Italian – Prosecco and Campari cocktails followed by traditional antipasti, pasta and risotto dishes.
  • Indian – delicious indian starters followed by a range of curries, rice and pilau breads.
  • Tex Mex – chilli con carne, fajitas, burritos and tortillas accompanied by Mexican beers and tequila. A fun and informal menu for guests of all ages.
  • British – why not treat your guests to a traditional English roast, with a carver at each table. For a more informal wedding, what could be better than fish and chips.

Whatever your London wedding dinner and drinks options, Marquee Magic has the perfect marquee for your special day. Specialising in wedding marquee hire, we have a range of accessories and decor options to turn your wedding marquee into a stunning and sumptuous wedding venue.

Reasons To Marquee Hire Instead Of A Venue

Organising a special event such as a wedding, private party or corporate event can be a challenging experience. One of the most stressful aspects is trying to find the right venue. Booking a venue, especially in the London area is becoming more and more tedious. All the decent places are booked up months ahead; for weddings, even years in advance. But what if you didn’t have to worry about your event location? What if you could choose wherever you want to host your special function? You could even consider hosting your event at home. Instead of a fixed venue, consider choosing a marquee for your special event. Here are some good reasons to hire a marquee instead of a venue.

The Perfect Location

You get to choose your location. Even if your garden is an average size, you will be able to find a marquee to suit your needs. A popular choice is a marquee that acts as a home extension, allowing you to take advantage of your interior space which then flows out into your outdoor area. A marquee at home makes your event more personal and you don’t have to worry about toilet facilities or catering kitchens. It’s all there for you. And best of all, your venue is free, so you can consider hiring a more luxurious marquee to make your event truly special.

Flexibility marquee hire

You have the flexibility to choose the date you want without having to book a venue months in advance. You can also pick and choose what services you require. You can hire a full service package including catering, furniture, floor coverings and lighting, or you can choose to decorate the marquee yourself. You also have the flexibility of making your own catering arrangements and adapting a custom made theme for your event. You don’t even have to worry about the time of year. Although most marquees are rented during the summer months, a heated marquee allows you to hold your event in the colder months. A marquee is a wonderful idea for a private or corporate Christmas party. Finding a suitable venue for your Christmas party in the London area is becoming increasingly more difficult and expensive. Many venues have fixed price packages and don’t allow you the flexibility that hiring a marquee does.
