Our Top Tips for Planning Your Autumn Marquee Wedding
We have seen many traditions in autumnal marquee weddings over the years, from warm colours and seasonal food and drink to lighting and entertainment. Whether you and your partner have just become engaged, have secured the date, or are days away from your special day, our top tips on planning an autumnal marquee wedding are sure to help! Plus, some of our tips are extremely cost-effective; you don’t always need to splash the cash to make the most of your big day.
1. Choosing the Perfect Wedding Marquee
So, what is the best marquee for you to use at your autumn wedding? While there are plenty of options to choose from, there is no single ‘best’ marquee out there. Of course, you can opt for the most aesthetic, durable, and weather-protected marquee, but it ultimately boils down to the number of guests you are looking to accommodate and the type of marquee that best suits the style of your wedding.
2. Incorporate Autumnal Colours
Burnt oranges, dark greens, maroon and beautiful wine colours are only a few autumnal colours that you can incorporate into your big day. These can be incorporated into your décor from furniture to bunting, bridesmaid’s dresses to flowers, it is a unique touch that will make your big day one to remember!
3. Offer a Seasonal Menu
As the cooler temperatures start to set in, homely well-cooked meals are a staple at an autumn marquee wedding! Pumpkins and cranberries to pomegranates and sweet potatoes are just a few autumnal ingredients that can be incorporated into a menu that will not only keep your guests full but will get them in the seasonal spirit.
4. Include Marquee Entertainment
As the days get shorter and the darker evenings creep in this allows you to create a truly memorable event. From bonfires outside the marquee with marshmallows on sticks to entertaining your guests with fireworks, the autumn weather really is something to take full advantage of!
5. Consider Cosy Wedding Lighting
Lighting is a wonderful way to create a magical mood in the darker evenings, fairy lights twinkling to dazzling chandeliers; the perfect lighting can create a great atmosphere for you and your guests to enjoy.
6. Embrace the Autumnal Chill
