What To Consider When Booking A Marquee In Grafton?

Booking a marquee in Grafton? Check the ground, access, guest layout, delivery dates and extras before choosing your marquee and requesting a quote.

Before booking a marquee in Grafton, check the site as carefully as the guest list. The right order depends on the ground, delivery access and everything you want to fit under cover.

Measure the usable area

Describe the ground surface and send the available dimensions, including any nearby trees, buildings or other obstacles. Leave the final installation requirements to the crew. The Hampton, Electron, The Big Blue & White, The White One and The Little Blues are not suitable for paved or concrete areas; discuss the free-standing range for a different surface.

See the marquee styles and sizes before settling on an appearance or layout.

Plan more than seats

List the guest count, dining style, dance floor, bar and catering space. A standing party and a seated wedding reception do not need the same layout. Ask the team to review the plan rather than treating a guest-capacity estimate as a guarantee.

Check access and timing

Explain how the delivery vehicle reaches the installation area and whether access is shared with other suppliers. Agree on delivery and collection windows with the venue or property owner. For an event outside Grafton, give the complete address in Maclean, Yamba, Iluka or the surrounding Clarence Valley.

Include the extras deliberately

Walls and flooring, subject to availability, belong in the quote if needed. Check furniture and tableware, sound and lighting and portable toilets against the event plan. Confirm power and equipment setup arrangements rather than assuming they are part of marquee installation.

Confirm the order and responsibilities

The crew installs the marquee and dance floor. Furniture is delivered for you to set up, with placement help on request. Read the hire terms and keep the agreed hire list with your event run sheet. Get a quote or Call (02) 6643 2878.
