STEP 1 - ARRANGE A CALL OR SITE VISIT

You will have a million ideas in your head – it’s only natural. You should talk to a Dine Event Manager and if possible, meet face to face or on a video call. They will listen and guide you towards the next step and key decisions you will need to make.

STEP 2 - THINK ABOUT THE PLAN

A great wedding doesn’t happen without practical planning from the start. You can use your Dine Event Manager to plan the layout of the day, whether that’s at a wedding venue or at home.  If you choose a marquee wedding, we’ll plan the layout of the structures, where guests will park, how long it will take to get to the marquee, where the kitchen will go, the floor plan & timings – it’s not just about the food!

STEP 3 - WHAT DO YOU NEED INCLUDED

You probably don’t know right now exactly what you want & it won’t do much good to know that the options are pretty much endless! To help, we’ve put together some examples of what options we’ve put together for couples in the past. Don’t get too focused on the final product yet because that can come further down the line. Concentrate on those essentials and you can build from there.

WEDDING CASE STUDIES

The below helps you see exactly what inclusions we can offer and is designed to provide an initial estimate on our pricing. If you are absolutely clear on exactly what you want then you can skip this step and go straight to a tailored, bespoke proposal which your Dine Event Manager can put together for you.

STEP 4 - CONFIRM THE VENUE & CATERING OPTIONS

Once you’ve got the plan sorted & quotes confirmed you are ready to book the key suppliers. You will find that we try to think of what you might need before you ask for it & automatically include it in our quote. Other couples have always said to us that they found that particular element of the service so useful, because it stopped the budget getting out of control in the final few months.

WEDDING PLANNING ADVICE

We have a few options - Rise Hall, Howsham Hall, Walled Garden Helperby, Sefton Park, can all accommodate marquees. We also have connections with venues around the country. You should speak to an Event Manager about the best location for you.

It's typically more expensive than a standard venue, but may not be quite as much as a venue with lots of accommodation on site. The most common issue we hear from people who don't use Dine initially is that the costs were escalating through the process. We will give you a thorough and accurate cost based on specific requirements following a site visit. The average spend for a marquee wedding (including Marquee, Food & Drink) in the North of England is £25,000 and a little more in the South.

Don’t worry – we can work that out for you. Simply tell us the number of guests you’re planning for your wedding day and evening celebrations and we will advise you on the best marquee size. The beauty of marquees is that they’re easily scalable so can be adapted to suit your requirements.

You can't go too far wrong by arranging an initial "site visit" with a marquee supplier and caterer who provides an Event Management service. Like with any major life decision, you'll know quite quickly if you've actually found someone you trust and want to work with - they'll think of the things you haven't and immediately bring know-how and sound advice to your original ideas. We can organise as much or as little as you like, from handling just the food to planning your whole day.

In England and Wales, you can have a legal wedding ceremony in a marquee, if the venue is licenced for weddings. You can't have a legal wedding ceremony in a marquee at home, in a field, or at any other temporary venue. However, you could have an informal ceremony or blessing in a marquee, and have the legally binding part in another venue that is licensed for civil ceremonies. In Scotland, the rules are different, and you can get married anywhere as long as the registrar. priest or celebrant agrees.
