Usually when party planners in the UK set out to organize birthday parties, weddings, anniversaries and graduations, having the party outdoors is rarely their first consideration. Favorite UK party venues include: church halls, hotel restaurants and function rooms, social clubs and even the local pub, but with party tent hire you can easily have an outdoor party. One of the main reasons why hosting the party outside is rarely considered is that in the UK the weather is so unpredictable that party planners rarely want to risk the party being ruined. Another reason not to consider an outdoor event is that it is difficult to set the stage and create a party atmosphere, as well as provide protection from wind, sun or rain.

However, outdoor parties are not taboo for everyone! The wealthiest have always celebrated parties in the open air and parties in the gardens are especially popular.

What are the advantages of having an outdoor party?

Garden parties, despite appearances, can offer a multitude of advantages over an indoor party, including allowing guests to enjoy the fresh air. Garden parties tend to be more spacious and the party planner’s house is spared clutter. The kids have more room to run around and the whole scene (with a little creativity) can be made to look quite magical. Theme parties can be spectacularly hosted outdoors, from medieval banquets to Hawaiian soirees. The possibilities are endless.

What about the uncompromising British climate?

A marquee will ensure that the UK weather does not dampen the mood of your guests.

Marquee tents provide ample shelter from wind, sun and rain, as well as providing an elegant and spacious indoor space for feeding guests, hosting a disco or dance, wedding reception or corporate event. Party marquees come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can fit most large garden spaces, restaurants, or hotels.

What are the advantages of renting a party tent?

Barbecues are a firm favorite during the summer months in the UK, but can still be a dud if the weather is unexpectedly cold and wet. A party marquee can ensure that your barbecue goes as planned and that, rain or shine, your guests are treated to a seasonal feast, good company, and shelter from the elements if necessary. Outdoor heaters can keep the cold out, so the options are limitless.

Party tents can also look spectacular and fascinating at night. With some well-chosen outdoor party lights to decorate your exterior, it can be lit up like a Christmas tree, only much more elegant.

Meanwhile, one of the main advantages of renting a party tent is that someone else (ie the party tent rental company) delivers, assembles, takes down, and removes the tents. The rental company can also, in many cases, offer a wide range of party planning services. These party planning services may include:

• Interior decorations

• Provide seating for parties

• Wedding planners

• Catering for parties

• Provide a cleaning service after the party

Are party tents expensive?

Party tent rates compare favorably with the cost of renting an indoor party venue or function room and are therefore worth serious consideration given the many advantages of celebrating outdoors.

This and all of the reasons above are why outdoor party tents outperform their competitors for indoor party venues!
