If you’ve just got engaged you are bound to be excited, but planning a wedding can also seem like an overwhelming prospect. There’s so much to think about! How much budget do we have? Do we want a traditional venue, or are we looking for something a little different? What kind of theme do we want? Do we even WANT a theme?!

If you’re leaning toward a more outdoorsy celebration then Events Under Canvas has a whole host of options to satisfy every taste and budget. The possibilities are endless, but one alternative you might not have considered before is a stretch tent – the latest addition to our range.

Stunning structures without STRETCHing the budget

Nowadays, it seems couples are under mounting pressure to spend the big bucks on making their day Pinterest-perfect. While we can fully understand how easy it is to get sucked into making every detail social media worthy, it’s a good idea to take a step back and really think about what is most important to you on your big day so that you don’t completely blow the budget.

For some, the ideal venue may well be a castle or a country house but for an increasing number of couples their vision involves something that’s a little friendlier on the pocket while being just as pleasing to the eye – enter the stretch tent! Simple yet striking, our stretch tents are a cost effective canvas for people having a more intimate affair, or for those looking for some extra cover for their ceremony, bar area or dance floor.

Getting personal

We believe that weddings should be a true reflection of you and your significant other – got a location in mind that holds a special place in your hearts? Perfect! Want to include those personal touches that a standard venue just won’t allow? Go right ahead! Choosing a stretch tent as the centrepiece for your celebrations means you can pitch up pretty much anywhere without worrying about having to navigate tricky logistical nightmares. It also allows you the freedom to decorate however you wish, from the elaborate to the understated you can really go to town.

From dusk ‘til dawn, come rain or shine  

If you love the idea of bringing the outside in but worry that the weather might hamper your plans, don’t panic, we’ve got you (and your guests) covered! Our 10 x 6 metre stretch tents can be set up open or closed, offering you protection against the elements without the often claustrophobic feel of a traditional marquee.

Whatever the weather, this clever tent will take you seamlessly from wedding breakfast through to breakfast the morning after if you’re so inclined. With the addition of some simple lighting you will be amazed at how stunning it will look after dark, so you and your guests can party like its 1999!
