How Do We Decorate Our Marquee for Our Wedding?
wedding venue marquees are big spaces to fill.
How can we add atmosphere to your Bath, Somerset & Cotswold Wedding Marquee?
Hamswell House Bath Marquee Wedding Decor
Photo Christophe Bourgeois Florals Coppergreen Flowers
Marquees weddings are wonderful blank canvas spaces with lofty ceilings that are easy to transform into unique, elegant venues. Many are located within beautiful surroundings and hopefully weather permitting the walls can be left open.
I love decorating marquees for weddings as you really can be creative and make them your own.
With any blank canvas wedding venue you can DIY it with wedding hire props or call in the professionals to help decorate and set up for you.
When decorating a marquee I recommend zoning your marquee, the areas I would zone include:
Marquee Wedding Entrance Decor
This sets the tone of your wedding - add milk churns, shepherds crooks with floral jars to line the entrance, an order of the day to let you guests know what will be happening and a when, you can add a welcome sign, personalised, a sign post directing guests to the destinations of your wedding.
Bittenham Springs Wedding Marquee Cotswolds Photographer Captured by Katrina
Marquee Wedding Gift Display
Create an area where your guest can leave their cards and gifts, create a display with lanterns, hire wedding suitcases, hire vintage wooden crates for cards and a personalised wedding guest book is a great idea - why not ask guests to sign a map of places they recommend you visit, or to suggest special date nights written on postcards and put in a jar?
Marquee Wedding Hire Welcome Table Sign Wedding Styling Rustic Rentals
Marquee Wedding Ceiling Decor
I really recommend getting creative to create the wow factor for your wedding hanging decor and wedding hanging floral decoration. So many options to have hanging hoops - either vertical or horizontal but horizontal are harder to level up, foliage or wedding floral ladders, fairy light installations, paper lanterns coloured or white and a modern alternative is folded fabric draping.
Marquee Wedding Drinks Reception & Bar
Wedding day drinks stations are an opportunity to make your wedding Pinterest worthy - you can hire a barrel bar and then add vintage a frames for hire , our indian cart and vintage dog cart are unique items to display your drinks.
Add straw bales with vintage galvanised baths for beers, lager and soft drinks or baths, vintage wine and champagne crates Don't forget water and soft drinks and hire some kilner jar dispensers filed with homemade lemonade, flavoured water or mocktails.
Marquee Wedding Seating Area
All guests will, appreciate somewhere more comfortable to sit after dinner ad especially more elderly guests, this is quite often overlooked and you can ask yo borrow friends or families rattan garden furniture, or we have vintage rattan chairs for hire. Add hire wedding rugs, hire wedding cushions, lanterns, some hire wedding blankets displayed on a hire wedding step ladder or in hire wedding apple crates to create a focal point for when it gets chilly and even add a fire pit and s’mores for later in the evening.
Marquee Wedding Cake Display
I advocate that you add decor and style the items you have already arranged. Your cake is a perfect opportunity to make this individually yours- you can use vintage hire console tables, ladder a frames, vintage indian hire carts - why not add some vintage hire shutters, arch or draping behind to create a backdrop?
Marquee Wedding Photo Booth
These can be made from a few hire vintage picture frames and you can add props if you wish for fun and they don’t need to be a special hired in unit. create a hash tag for guests to upload the photos.
Wedding Vintage Hire Picture Frames
Hat Storage Display for Guests
This can be a fun way to create an area where guests can put their hats - you can use hire a frame ladders, or hanging rope to pin the hats onto, or vintage hat stands on a table.
Marquee Dance Area
Some couples chose to have a separate marquee for the wedding party dance floor, curtained off for the reception. Options include coloured dance floors, uplighting, and ceiling laser displays, or coloured lanterns - there are specialist events companies or you may have a dance floor within the main area of the wedding marquee.

Sustainable Wedding Decor - Vintage Hire Wheelbarrow with perennial flowers
Wedding Decor Trends 2024 - Vintage Decor Hire pinterest searches indicate
Hiring your wedding decor and wedding clothing for your wedding is a great way to keep costs down and be more eco-conscious about your wedding day. Wedding suits have always been a popular item to hire, but we are seeing more suppliers hiring wedding dresses and wedding guest outfit hire companies coming into the wedding industry.
Another great item to hire rather than buy for your wedding is your decor, you can get better quality items and more for less money.
As a wedding stylists and a wedding decor hire company since 2015 specialising in prop hire we create sustainable weddings that not only look fabulous but are kind to the environment and your pocket. In hiring your wedding decor rather than buying it will both save you money and waste.

wedding decor trend 2024 - sustainable locally grown wedding flowers
Sustainable Wedding Decor - Locally grown sustainable wedding flowers
Many wedding flowers are imported from the Netherlands, Africa & Mexico. Couples are becoming more conscious of the impact this has on the environment and are now opting for British grown wedding flowers in their sustainable wedding bouquets and decor.
Potted perenneial and plants from garden centres can be more eco-friendly, cheaper than cut flowers. Then re-used as gifts to wedding guests and planted up in gardens as a lasting memory of your day. I used garden, seasonal perennials at our daughters wedding and this saved us at least £200 compared with a florist and cut flowers to add floral displays to the wedding day set ups.
Which wedding decor colours will be popular in 2024?
Wedding Flowers 2023 - Viva Magneta Wedding Boquet
The Pantone Colour of the Year has an impact on the choice of popular colours for weddings. For 2023, Viva Magenta a vibrant, pinky, red signifies confidence and strength.
For 2024 its Peach Fuzz so expect to see plots of peach and apricot wedding flower tones.
Wedding Trends 2024 - Green & White Wedding Boquet
The white, green and gold wedding colour combination is still popular and is a classic wedding colour combination that will always be a popular choice.
We are seeing alot of dusky blues and sage green which are classic wedding decor colour choices.
Bold and unique wedding colour schemes are also on the increase. With black, bright blues, oranges being popular set against the white background of a marquee wedding and village hall wedding venues. This wedding trend is perfect for couples who love colour.
Wedding Decor Trends 2024 - Colourful bold wedding decor
outdoor wedding venue choices for 2024
Outdoor Weddings are popular wedding venue choices for 2024 as the rules for getting married outside were changed and ceremony location rules are still changing making it easier to get married at outdoors wedding venues.

A sweetheart or couples table are popular choices
Wedding sweetheart and couples wedding tables are more popular and a little less traditional, a more intimate option on your wedding day. Couples wedding tables are alos popular for complicated family dynamics.
Wedding Decor Trends 2024 - Sweetheart table
The sweetheart table is a small table for you both to sit together rather than having a top table with family and close friends. If your wedding family group is too large for a top table then this is a fantastic solution.
statement wedding backdrops trend for 2024
From ceremony flower arches to statement wedding backdrops these are both popular choices for 2024 to decorate wedding receptions & wedding ceremony spaces .
Wedding Decor Trends 2024 - Ceremony Backdrop at Clearwell Castle
Large statement wedding floral installations like asymmetrical arches are a fantastic option to frame the front of your ceremony and then repurpose your wedding flowers after the ceremony to go behind your top table or sweetheart table and for photos throughout the day.
Flowers are big budget items, but definitely worth it, if you can add dried flowers and grasses this may stretch your budget, also adding beautiful texture to your wedding day floral arrangements.
Organic, locally grown British wedding flowers and wild floral wedding floral design is a wedding flower trend that is on the increase.
Floral meadows are very popular aisle weding floral choices and then are repurposed to the top table afterwards.

somerset rustic woodland barn wedding styling & wedding marquee styling
As Featured in Rock My Wedding
As The Beatles famously said, "We get by with a little help from our friends" and this is never truer than at a wedding. Hannah, our bride today, was in the very fortunate position of having a mum who runs the GORGEOUS Rustic Rentals but she also says that their wedding wouldn't have been a success were not for the extraordinary generosity and talent of their family and friends. Isn't that just lovely?! From the incredible flower hoop to the prettiest maids in cornflour blue, there are so many elements to love about this wedding.
"As two people who love the outdoors we wanted a relaxed day in a beautiful setting surrounded by friends and family. We were drawn to the beauty and simplicity of Streamcombe Farm, the rustic woodland setting and mature country gardens within the Exmoor National Park. The fact we could make it a full weekend celebration with accommodation and camping on site made it a natural choice for us." - Hannah & Stuart
Hannah and Stuart wanted a country, woodland styled decor with florals in blush neutral colours.
