Best Wedding Tents

It may seem like a bit of a luxury having wedding tents in your garden but there are plenty on the market ranging from basic affordable gazebos, heavy duty gazebos, through to the top range of marquees. If you are thinking of having a large event such as a wedding party or reception then housing it in your backyard is something to really consider as in the long run it can be a lot cheaper.

Types of Wedding Tent

Most people recommend heavy duty gazebos since they are far more sturdy and stable. When I say heavy duty I am talking about the frame. A lot of gazebos come with a plastic frame that is not able to stand up to bad weather and when you want an event outside you have to allow for the weather turning nasty unfortunately so I personally don’t see the point in getting a gazebo unless it is going to work in most weather conditions.

The majority of heavy duty gazebos are made using steel frames and this means that they are durable and able to withstand the rain and wind. Some are also fixed to the ground and are extremely solid structures. The gazebo canopy or tarp overhead is generally made using strong durable canvas that is weather resistant. You can also purchase pop up gazebos which makes setting up very easy and quick. They do tend to be more expensive but not as expensive as hiring a venue so definitely worth getting if you are looking for big and sturdy wedding tents with instant set up.

Benefits

The real benefit of using a wedding tent like this (apart from the obvious cost savings) is that you can be outside hosting a large event but remain covered and sheltered from the rain, wind and sun. Models that come with screened sides are best as they stop the bugs coming in which is important as you will most likely have food on offer. They are becoming more and more popular.
