Why use Lifestyle marquees for your marquee hire? It’s a good question. After all there are plenty of other marquee companies available and Lifestyle marquees are unlikely to be the cheapest.

However, as with all things, you get what you pay for and at Lifestyle marquees we understand that our customers are looking for more than a ‘temporary structure’ when they hire one of our marquees; they are buying an experience – and a great one at that!

Peace of mind

Peace of mind is priceless. With Lifestyle marquees it’s part of the package. We focus on great customer service and on the quality of the marquees that we supply. Not just the structures, but the interior décor, the finer details and the finish.

We include every everything you’ll need in our quotes, meaning you can relax, knowing that there’ll be no nasty surprises along the line. We include a variety of invaluable services that take the stress out of marquee hire – in fact we probably go much further than you might have realised:

Supplier management

When you choose to hire a marquee you choose to have your very own bespoke venue, built at your home. A fully serviced marquee comes with electrics, heating, lighting, flooring, dance floors, bars, catering tents, tables, chairs and more… That’s a lot of different suppliers, and a lot of different people coming to your home.

We have a long list of tried, tested and trusted suppliers. Each with their own unique styles, offerings and specialties; we’ll know which of them will best suit you and your event and we’ll recommend the right ones to you.

We can not only recommend or source suppliers for your event, we also manage them throughout the marquee build and post event de-rig too. That means that we’ll be there to ensure that the furniture arrives on time, the bar is delivered and put in the right location. The electrical suppliers arrive on site at the right point in the build and that they put all the sockets and lights in the right places.

A 10 point service guarantee

We offer a 10 point stress free guarantee with every marquee hire. Not because we think you’ll need it but to offer you the peace of mind in the services that we offer and the promises we make. You won’t find another marquee supplier that has the confidence to put their money where they mouth is…

From regular contact, to 24/7 emergency contact details, wet weather plans and qualified service providers, our guarantee covers it all. We don’t offer our guarantee because our customers will need it, we offer it because we know that they won’t!

A consultative approach

Every one of our clients is different, and every event is different too. Because we understand this we take a consultative approach with each and every one of our clients. From the first moment that we speak with you we listen. You may need us to be very hands on, take control and pull everything together. On the other hand you may simply want us to be there for you when you need us.

Perhaps you’re extremely busy and need a marquee supplier that you can trust to manage your entire event. Or you may be looking for a company that will work closely with you every step of the way to deliver your dream event. Whatever level of service and support you’re looking for, we’ll be there for you.

40 years of experience

Lifestyle marquees began in 1980. We quickly became know for our high levels of customer service and beautiful marquees. Since then we’ve built marquees of all shapes and sizes in all kinds of locations. We built the simple and the sublime and there really isn’t a great deal that we haven’t delivered over the last 40 years.

We’re experts in building marquees in unusual or awkward locations. We’ve built marquees over lakes, ponds, pools and on sloping land and tiered terraces. Our experienced team has a solution for almost any situation.

The highest quality marquees

You’ll probably know the difference between Primani and Armani, or Ferrari and Fiat, but you may never have considered marquees in the same way. We use only the highest quality marquee structures and materials in our builds.

Why does it matter? Well, for example, our sturdy marquees are rated to stand up to wind gusts of up to 80mph. Of course there are cheaper marquee structures available for hire, but why risk a marquee that’s breezy, cold and flimsy feeling? Our marquees, and our service levels elevate your marquee event, it’s as simple as that.
