Taylor's Tents & Events

Taylor's Tents & Events hires stretch tents as a modern alternative to the traditional marquee, for weddings, garden parties, corporate events and more. It is based around Chichester and the Witterings, and works across West Sussex and Hampshire.

The tents run from 6m x 9m for smaller gatherings up to 12m x 27m for large weddings, with more than 200 guests possible, and they can be linked together, set up open-sided or enclosed, and fitted around trees, steps and existing buildings. Clear modular walling, flooring, festoon and fairy lighting, real-flame heaters, a dance floor, a rustic bar, speakers and furniture can all be added, and there is an online tent planner for mapping out a layout.

The business is run by Paige and Tom. Paige has a background in the wedding industry, and Tom's experience is in landscaping and construction. The team surveys the site, gives a detailed quote, pitches the tent, is on call during the event and de-rigs afterwards.
