Marquee hire
Wellington & Kāpiti
Planning a wedding, celebration or corporate event? We offer marquee and stretch tent hire across Wellington, the Hutt Valley, Porirua and the Kāpiti Coast, creating flexible covered spaces that make the most of your setting.
Ants & Anna Reid and the team will help you choose a tent and layout for your guest numbers, venue and weather plan. Share your date, location and approximate guest count, and we’ll help plan the details and prepare a tailored quote.
Planned for Wellington’s weather
We plan around your site, ground conditions, access and exposure. Waterproof fabric and flexible side configurations help create shelter, with the rig confirmed for your venue.
Ask us about heating and additional shelter options. Lowering sides changes the usable floor area, so we’ll work through the tent size and layout with you.
A different kind of marquee
More than a roof
over your heads.
Make the most of a harbour view, a coastal garden or an urban courtyard with a flexible covered event space designed around your location.
A stretch tent combines the coverage of a marquee with the softness of an open-air celebration. Its sculptural shape can be adapted to the surroundings, giving you a beautiful place to gather without losing what makes the location special.
Effortlessly elegant.
Soft, flowing lines create an atmosphere that feels warm, considered and completely different from a conventional box-shaped marquee.
Made for your space.
Suitable for many lawns, gardens, rural settings and outdoor spaces, with different rigging options depending on the site.
Ready for the elements.
Waterproof fabric and flexible side options help make outdoor celebrations practical. We’ll discuss weather plans and site conditions with you.

A few useful answers.
Every site and event is different. These are some of the questions that come up most often.
Do you hire marquees throughout Wellington and the Hutt Valley?
Our regional service area covers Wellington, Lower and Upper Hutt, Porirua and the Kāpiti Coast. Delivery and installation are quoted for your specific location and site.
What happens if it is windy or raining?
We discuss wind exposure, side configurations, ground surface and the forecast when planning your rig. Every site is different, and suitability needs to be confirmed for the location and conditions.
How far in advance should we book a wedding marquee?
Get in touch once you have an event date and likely venue. Popular dates can book ahead, so an early enquiry gives us time to discuss the available options.
Do you provide lighting, furniture or flooring?
We can discuss lighting, tables, seating, flooring and heating as part of your tailored quote, including options arranged through equipment-hire partners. Availability and suitability are confirmed for your event.
Can we use a stretch tent with one or more sides down?
Many stretch tent setups can be rigged with sides down for added shelter. This reduces usable floor area, so we’ll plan the tent size and layout around the likely weather options.
