We ask Minihaha Garande of Yorkshire venue stylist Luxe by Minihaha & Co. your question on styling a marquee wedding...

"We've booked a traditional marquee for our wedding, but now I'm worried it won't have the luxury feel I want. How can we style it to give some opulence?"

Marquee weddings are an amazing choice for larger receptions year-round. They're the perfect blank canvas for you to create your own special venue. Styling a marquee to add some opulence will start with focusing your design on a visually appealing entrance. This is the first thing your guests will see so it's imperative to set the tone. To add wow factor, you could lay a beautiful stone pathway adorned with gorgeous blooms and lined with flickering candles.

The beauty of this type of setting is you can project on to it your wildest dreams for your big day. Inside, you may want to add a few focal points such as a beautiful custom bar in the centre, as well as a stunning lounge area to add instant drama. Also, adding some exquisite hanging floral installations will give your design some impact. Lastly, lighting is key in creating the right ambience. Incorporate lots of twinkling lights and uplighters for a sense of drama and romance.
