Stretch Tents

Stretch tents, with their organic shapes and gentle curves, add a stunning aesthetic to outdoor weddings. These tents are highly versatile and can be set up on different terrains, providing a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor areas. Their adaptable design also means they can suit both intimate and larger gatherings, giving you a free-flowing, relaxed ambiance.

Yurts

Yurts bring a rustic charm with an earthy, cosy vibe perfect for small weddings or as a secondary structure for a breakout area or cocktail space. Their traditional, rounded shape and wooden lattice framework create an inviting setting that’s full of character. Yurts are ideal for adding a boho, romantic feel to the wedding.
