Tents for countryside, garden and seaside weddings
The wedding tent is an enclosed reception area that protects an outdoor wedding from the risk of rain, sun and wind. It is used for countryside weddings, hotel gardens, the seaside, and engagement and marriage-ceremony receptions.
The galvanised steel or aluminium frame is erected without columns over a span of 10-40 m. Tables and the dance floor can be laid out as you like, and the stage is visible from every table.
Interior height for décor, lighting and drapes
Sidewall height can be chosen between 3 and 6 m. If chandeliers, drapes and lighting will be hung, a high sidewall leaves room for the décor. For a simpler reception a low wall is enough.
The membrane is UV-resistant PVC in the 650-950 g/m² range. If transparent PVC is used on the sides, guests can see the garden or the sea from inside. Because a transparent surface also lets the sun in, we plan lighting and ventilation together. For receptions that want fuller interior fittings there is also a VIP event tent option.
Floor: lawn, timber platform or concrete
The floor under the tent affects the comfort of the reception as much as the tent does. A timber platform can be built over lawn, and the tent can be erected directly on a concrete floor. We choose the fixing method according to the ground type and the wind conditions of the region.
For seaside and open-country weddings, the fixing of the tent is calculated for the wind conditions of the region. So be sure to share the installation site at the quote stage.
What needs to be settled before the wedding date
- The number of guests, the table layout and the size of the dance floor
- The size of the installation site and the ground type
- Whether the sides will be closed, transparent or open
- The interior height wanted for décor and lighting
- When the site will be free for installation and dismantling
We draw the project in SketchUp and AutoCAD and calculate the wind and snow load for the region. On request we supply DIN 4102 B2 (normally flammable) PVC tarpaulin. The test report from our supplier Kaya Plastik rates the tarpaulin as DIN 4102-1 class B2. A summary of the report is on our documents page. We quote the price according to size and equipment. You can see our other models on the event tents page.
Tell us the wedding date, the location and the number of guests, and we will design the project and prepare a quote.
