One of the most important issues when hiring a marquee is choosing the correct size. Choosing too large a size and it can seem that not enough people have attended, choose too small a size and and it may be overcrowded and uncomfortable.
We would advise on between 12sq ft and 15sq ft per person for weddings etc when seated at round tables, and 6sq ft when guests are standing for a buffet style function. To assist you we have provided tables to give you an indication of comfortable sizes.
