Valuable Advice for a Perfect Marquee Hire in Plymouth

Marquee hire is gaining immense popularity as a way to accommodate and entertain guests on special occasions such as weddings, birthday celebrations, anniversaries, corporate events, fund raisers, get together and so on. If you have plans to host an event and would like to hire a marquee then this article will provide you with some helpful tips to make your event a memorable one.

There are numerous choices on the types of marquee tents that can be hired. However, mainly two types of marquee are preferred, namely a ‘wide span’ metal frame type, that is most popular and a ‘pole type’ that is erected using ropes. The stand alone metal frame type marquee requires no ropes for its erection so there are negligible chances of somebody tripping over the ropes. This is necessary if your guest will be drinking alcohol.

You should request the marquee hire Plymouth to show you the marquee they will be erecting for your event so that you are aware of the look of your marquee. This is necessary because once erected, the marquee hire Plymouth will not change it free of cost if the marquee is not according your expectation.

You should ask your marquee hires Plymouth about all the services that they have included in their quote. Many marquee hire Plymouth services provide furniture, crockery, lighting, bespoke service and so on. Few marquee hire companies have the necessary capability to offer a licensed bar and full catering service at your event if you so desire.

You should ensure that marquee hire company that you are dealing with is fully insured for the public liability. You should also check the marquee as soon as it has been erected at your venue because any later disputes over damage to the marquee are cumbersome to resolve.

You should also check the power arrangements made by the marquee hire Plymouth. All the power equipment should be of correct rating and should be fully compatible with the equipment (such as band or disk jockey) you intend to use for your event. In fact, you can inform this beforehand to the company so that they can make suitable arrangements to cater to your requirements.

You should also acquaint yourself of the location of lightning switches and main power cut off. If your event begins during the day and goes on till night, then you should know of the location from where you can turn on the lights.
You should get quotes from marquee companies and should be wary of providers who try to undercut their competition. Check the references of the company and go with the one that impresses you!

You can hire marquees all over the country. Mostly they have specialization in their own area like Sheffield, South Yorkshire, Doncaster, West Yorkshire, Manchester, North Yorkshire, and so on.

You can easily find marquee hire companies by searching for them on the internet. In case somebody has recommended you one, you can directly go to their website. However, if you want to search from amongst a list of companies, you can go to a search engine and type “marquee hire Manchester” for example and you will get a detailed list of companies on your computer. You can easily visit each of these websites and browse all the available marquees and then contact the selected few through email or phone.

Firstly, you will have to decide on the location before choosing the type of marquee you want to have, and then within that area decide as to where you will erect the marquee for your event.

The selection of location will mainly depend upon your event, for example in case of your wedding, you can plan the event out of town, say north near the Scotland or the old English Town located down south. In case the event is a birthday party or some corporate event you can keep it much closer to home for making it easier for people to travel. In case you are living in the Manchester area, you can keep it local or if living in south Yorkshire book your location which is in the surrounding area.

Many marquee hire companies have specialization in a certain type of marquees and if you are in know of the type of marquee you want then you can directly go to this company in your local area for example marquees for corporate events in Lancashire, or wedding marquees in Sheffield.

You can enquire from the company about the past events or marquees which they have erected and for customer testimonials and feedback. Many companies maintain photo album of fully decorated marquees which they show to their potential customers which will provide you with a more accurate view as to how your marquee will actually look.

Few marquee hire companies also arrange for the accessories like catering, tables, chairs and lighting. This really makes things easier for you as you will have to approach just one company who will provide you with everything you need for your marquee.

Business Event: Hire a Marquee

A marquee is one of the most important items in an event planner’s checklist. Marquees serve many functions in business events and are great investments for companies who regularly hold outdoor events such as marketing or promotional events, recruitment drives, trade shows, product launches or sporting events.

Minimise Event Risks
The greatest risk in holding an outdoor event is bad weather. Rain, thunderstorm or windy conditions are the greatest nightmare for every event planner. Bad weather can potentially ruin an event regardless of how well-planned or how well-attended it is. The stakes can be extremely high especially when an event’s success is critical to a company’s profit margin or reputation.

Marquees are necessary event tools for any outdoor event. When holding an event in an outdoor field, stadium or park, marquees provide shelter against the hot glare of the sun or the drizzle of rain. They are easy to store, to install and come in all shapes and sizes. Most marquees require only the efforts of one or two persons to install and take less than five minutes of assembly time.

Branding and Positioning
Marquees are more than just physical structures they can also be symbolic representations of a company’s branding or positioning in the event. Many companies print their company names, logos, branding or marketing taglines on their marquees. They can be great tools to attract potential customers and visitors to a company’s booth or stall during a recruitment event, trade show, exhibition or fair. Many company use attractive bright colours on their marquees to stand out from the crowd and to gain an upper hand on their competitors. Whether it is an indoor or outdoor event, marquees help to position a company’s presence and participation at the event.

Business-like Setting
Marquees also enable companies to conduct their business discussions or interview candidates during an outdoor event in complete privacy. Many marquees come in complete framework and four-sided panels that provide enclosed space for private and undisturbed business discussions or meetings. These private spaces can help filter off the noisy surroundings and enable employees to work ‘on site’ more efficiently.

Convenience
Companies can have the option of hiring a marquee that comes with furniture, display shelves or fittings for their events. This enables event planners to plan the interior setting and layout of their outdoor booth or stall so that they can have matching furniture and the right amount of space for the intended purpose of the event. A well-designed event setting also helps to elevate a company’s image and create a good impression on its potential customers.
