Why hire lighting for your marquee?

Ambience

Wedding marquees offer unlimited flexibility! They can be set up in almost any location, in any size (tailored to your guest list) and with a variety of finishes. Large or small, a wedding marquee can suit!

Photography

A wedding marquee allows you to personalise your event and create a unique yet special atmosphere. From decorations to the lighting, make your wedding day truly reflect any personality and style.

Value

Weather is unpredictable! Sweltering heat one day, torrential rain the next. Wedding marquees provide protection from the elements keeping guests comfortable and dry.

DIY Option

Compared to traditional venues, wedding marquees can be a cost effective solution for your special day. Only pay for what you need and decorate as simply or elaborately as you like.

Marquee Lighting Options…

Festoon Lights

Festoon lighting inside your marquee can create a vibrant atmosphere that brings life to your event tent! We generally install festoon lights horizontally across the span of the canopy and run them the full length of your tent for best results.

- Our bulbs are made of shatterproof plastic so completely safe
- LED bulbs only draw 1W per bulb so low power draw
- Easy to install and/or match to exterior lighting
- Run partially or fully across the length of your marquee

Fairy Lights

Fairy lights or “string lights” can present a magical atmosphere for your guests and work particularly well with clear roof marquee installs. Similar to festoon lights, these can be strung either across the span of the marquee or lengthways.

- Unique finish looks dazzling, particularly under a clear roof
- Connectable to cover any length or area
- Commercial grade waterproof bulbs with a low power draw
- Fully installed option under marquee canopy

Chandeliers

Looking for a splash of elegance at your wedding reception, ceremony or corporate event? Chandelier lighting inside your marquee is not only practical but gives a grand impression for your guests. These can be hung by themselves or connected to several others throughout

- Available in different finishes to suit your theme or bring your own!
- Easily installed provided power is available
- Hang one chandelier centrally or join multiple throughout the marquee
- Great for wedding ceremonies and receptions

Up Lights

Looking for something a little more striking to light up your marquee? Up lights or par can lighting are customisable small lights that shoot direct beams of coloured light in any direction. Perfect for events where you are looking to stand out or bring contrast to the area or a particular section of the marquee.

- Theme in one colour or create an alternating visual display
