1. [GUIDE] Top 5 Tips to create a wow Winter 2019 Event
Winter Events are amazing. Here are our top 5 tips to make your event Winter WOW!
Go all clear Marquee and Shine.
Any time is a great time for an all clear marquee but in Winter they are amazing!
Did you know? Clear Marquees are a top Winter option as they hold in the sun’s heat - making them
ideal for a snug and comfy Winter event space.
Winter is the ideal time to go big with your
lighting like this example featuring;
 Masses of roof fairy lights
 Topiary fairy lights
 Central chandelier
 Festoon lights entrance
Event Marquees has a full range or marquee
and outdoor lighting - so get in touch with
your wish list.
Dual Zones to Impress
Winter is the perfect time to have a couple of zones with dual purpose.
Start off as a cosy welcoming space to warm
up, divest of coats & jackets and mingle with
the other guests as you enjoy a drink. Think
beyond mulled wine and embrace the
season with on trend Winter cocktails such
as a Winter Margarita, Spiked cinamon chai
lattes or Hot buttered bourbon.
Then utilize this space as a cosy lounge space
for those wanting to sit and chat instead of
dancing in the main marquee.
A great bar option for this is either
our Illuminated Event Bar that is completely
customisable or our Customised Curved bars that also light up! Bang on for Winter events.

2. Lighting Wow Moment
If you do go with two zones you might think
about creating your own Vivid moment with
your own turning on of the lights. We have
seen this in action and it simply is
AMAZING!!
Gather people at your marquee double door
entrance then flick the switch to your
beautiful marquee light display.
Vivid light festival in Sydney turns the lights
on at 6pm every night - which creates the
most epic wow.
Create a striking Entrance
Might be an old saying “first impressions
count” but it is still an on-trend sentiment.
And for your Winter Event it allows even
more creativity with lights.
Create a clear entrance path with our new
artificial hedge planter boxes then add in a
sprinkling of fairy lights on the hedges for
some Winter bling.
Then utilise our festoon lights over head to
provide pretty lighting for the entrance.
Event Marquees can not only provide the
lights and power cords, but also stainless-
steel poles to allow this set-up. As well as, of
course, our experienced team to set it up for
you.
Top tip! Make sure you have a heater or two
along your entrance. Your guests will love
you for it!

3. Make it Cosy
Winter Events are the time to cosy in and
make a night of it. Our gas heaters will heat
up any space, and it’s important to get the
correct ratio of heaters, considering how the
space will be used throughout the event.
For example a sit-down dinner will require
more heating. But get in touch with the
helpful Event Marquees team - we have
done thousands of events and know how to
get the heater balance right.
The good news is that if it gets too hot from
too much dancing fun - it’s super easy to open up the marquee side a little to cool things down.
Outside Ideas
Don’t forget about your outdoor space - with some extra bling it will really add to the overall event
look, as well as lend itself to amazing photos.
Fairy Lights Waterfall
This looked exquisite and provided a natural
segue between the indoors and out.
While it looks tricky - it’s not. The clever
Event Marquees utilised the Fairy lights at a
new angle to achieve the striking waterfall
effect. #event #inspo
Percan Display
This dramatic effect, made the most of the
post sunset event start time. As the guests
arrived, they were greeted by this creative
lighting display.
This look was achieved with our percan light
hire to make a dazzling red hue outside.
Wow wow wow.
Winter is a fantastic time to have your
event. Get in touch with our helpful Event
Marquees team.
