So what you can do is to get the best deal for your wedding marquee. Here are some tips on how to have a modest wedding marquee.

1. Visit at least six marquees hire shops/suppliers to get an idea who offers a better marquee deal and price. Choose the best deal by the well-known wedding marquee hire supplier. You can search also through the web, be careful in choosing, some of them are bogus.
2. Many couples choose to get married in the months of May, June and July which are the peak seasons for weddings - the shortage of marquees and high prices may encounter. If you really want a summer wedding, then go for the month of August when marquee prices is not too expensive. Or choose a spring wedding or autumn wedding or winter wedding for bigger savings at marquees and other wedding equipment.
3. Book early as much as possible to get the perfect marquees you want. Booking early may give you a discount. Also, booking early not only gives you a good price but you will protect your budget from unexpected increases of demands, fuel and labor. Make sure you have a copy of the price agreement.
4. Choose a marquee hire package and stick to it. You can get a marquee package that offers a full package which include the carpet, lining, chandelier lighting, swags and drapes, furniture, and dance floor. Avoid adding extra decorations; it may bump your marquee hire price.
5. You can’t avoid changing the number of guests in the last minute but it doesn’t mean you need to hire extra marquees. You can use the extra space like the dance floor and move them when the disco starts. With this, you will only pay the extra chairs and tables than renting an extra marquee.
