Setup, Styling & Logistics

Yes. Our experienced crew manages delivery, installation and pack-down so you can focus on enjoying your event. As a result, the entire process is stress-free and professionally managed.
Do you visit the event site before installation?
For most events, we conduct a site inspection to ensure suitability, measure layout and confirm access points. This approach guarantees the best possible setup on the day of your event.
Are your marquees suitable for hot or cold weather?
Our marquees are designed for all Australian climates. In warm months, we recommend ventilation and fans; in cooler weather, we can add heating and side walls to keep guests comfortable.
Do you provide flooring, power or lighting?
Yes, we can include flooring, power distribution and lighting solutions. For example, we often add timber floors, festoon lights or chandeliers to elevate your event space.

How far in advance should I book?
For weddings and major events, we recommend booking 6–12 months in advance to secure your preferred date and marquee style. However, we always try to accommodate last-minute requests where possible.
