Bridesmaid Gifts at The Knot Wedding Shop

Modern Marquees

Summer is the most popular period of the year for weddings in the UK, and with good reason. Who wants to arrive at the chapel on the big day with chattering teeth and a red nose? We all know the British weather is temperamental at best, even holding your wedding in mid July is not guaranteed to give you a glorious day. The alternative is to jet off to tie knot in a foreign country. Popular wedding destinations which come with a cast-iron garuntee to shine a light on your big day are the Virgin islands, Hawaii or Fiji. Although exotic, one in a lifetime fly-aways are an attractive option, the costs can be crippling and going abroad will be out of the question for many in the current economic climate.

When money is too tight to mention, striking the correct balance between lavishness and economy for your wedding plans can prove a challenge. Wedding catering is often quoted as one of the most costly aspects of getting hitched, this is surprising considering the atrocious quality and variety of food and drink at most receptions and after-parties. There is up and coming army of catering companies, however, which are solely focused on making your wedding as spectacular as possible for a relatively small outlay.

Aside from laying on vast, luxurious spread these new emerging outside catering firms can also arrange a beautiful venue for your wedding. These days married couples are going down the increasingly popular route of hosting their after-parties in outdoor marquees. Hold on before you start thinking about cheap gazebos from B&Q in garish shades of green, these are no outdoor eye-sores. A huge range is available encompassing themed tents such as oversized native American Wigwams or Tipis.

A marquee tent effectively allows you to host your wedding in multiple venues, and gives the after party is own, unique feel separate from that of the ceremony. They are a great compliment to any summer ceremony and could even be used in the colder months for a Xmas party with the assistance of large patio-type heaters found in back yards and beer gardens. The humble Tarpaulin tent is no more, we have entered the age of temporary mini-villages which add a whole new aspect to your event. If you are serious about having a successful, stylish wedding the real question you should be asking yourself is: Marquee or not Marquee?
