ASIAN WEDDING MARQUEES

How to choose Asian wedding marquees for a wedding

Hiring Asian wedding marquees are becoming increasingly popular for summer Asian weddings, particularly those which use the gardens of country homes as backdrops. Listed here are some tips for hiring Asian wedding marquees for your wedding.

Types of Asian wedding marquees

Asian wedding marquees suppliers offer a wide range of marquees from Indian shamianas and Arabic tents to traditional marquees in different sizes, styles and colours. Given the wide range of Asian wedding marquees available, you are sure to find something ideal for your wedding theme and style.

Time of the wedding

With flooring and modern heating systems, the time of the year when the wedding is to take place may not seem to be an issue but keep in mind that Asian wedding marquees suppliers may charge an extra fee if heaters are required.

The size of the Asian wedding marquee

Before speaking to the Asian wedding marquees supplier, be sure that you are clear about the answers to the following questions: How many guests you wish to accommodate? Will the guests be formally seated or will they be seated around tables for a wedding reception? Do you require space for a dance floor? Do you need space for an initial reception area? This is important because an Asian wedding marquees supplier will take the size into consideration when giving you a quote.

Where to find Asian wedding marquee suppliers?

While seeking personal references from friends and relatives is a good idea, you will find a wide range of marquee companies listed in our Asian wedding directory. You can browse through their portfolios to see what they have to offer and then shortlist the Asian wedding marquee suppliers whose work and rates you like. You can then seek personal consultation with each of them to get a better understanding of their services. This may seem time consuming but it would help you to make an informed choice and get the best Asian wedding marquee at the most competitive rate.

Questions you should ask from the Asian wedding marquees suppliers

Before arranging a personal meeting with the Asian wedding marquees suppliers, you must let them know when and where the wedding would take place. This will help you ensure that they have availability for the date and that they can setup in your chosen venue. Always ask if there are additional costs that are not included in the price, for example, VAT, travel expenses, furniture etc. Also ask about the power supply, is this included in the package or do they charge extra.

Here are some more questions you could clarify before hiring an Asian wedding marquee supplier.

  • What sizes and styles of Asian wedding marquees do they provide?

If you are hiring an Asian wedding marquee, you will also want to talk to the supplier about lighting, especially if you are having an evening event. You can ask them what they provide or give them an idea of the effect you are looking for.

You will also need to decide whether you want your tables and chairs to be cleared away for the dancing or whether the Asian wedding marquee will be planned with a separate eating area.

If you are having a band or a DJ, make sure your Asian wedding marquee supplier can provide a stage and that there is space to set up all the equipment.
