Raise the Roof Marquees & Events Full Description
Weddings, parties, corporate events and celebrations of any kind… why not mark your event with a marquee? As our name suggests, we’re here to Raise the Roof on your next event, and we’re doing it by raising the bar when it comes to bespoke marquee hire. Based in the Sussex countryside, we work across the county and beyond to provide our clients with marquees to suit all styles and sizes. Whether you need us to simply supply and set up your marquee, or you’d like us to help you plan, dress and run your whole event for you, we can offer it all. We’ve got a great range of marquee structures available, so whether you’re looking to entertain at an intimate gathering, or daring to dazzle droves in their hundreds at your next big event, you need to give us a call. Although, quite literally, a marquee starts off as a blank canvas, that’s what makes it the perfect pitch for your event – and you’d be amazed at what we can do to provide you with a marquee that hits the mark whatever your space or style, plot or personality. With wow factor as standard, we’re sure that your guests are going to talk about your event for weeks, months and even years to come. And who doesn’t want to be ‘that friend’ who’s famed for hosting the best parties and celebrations? It’s worth us noting that in order to dedicate all the time, focus and precision needed to give our customers exactly what they dreamed of, we only take on a limited amount of bookings each year. It’s a simple case of quality over quantity, every time, so book early! Oh, and a quick word of warning before getting in touch with us here at Raise the Roof. Never under any circumstances refer to your marquee as “a tent”. We can count the number of times we’ve been camping on one hand, and all of those times have included tears, tantrums, and terribly articulated attempts at gaining Scout badges. We don’t want to talk about it.

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Emma Turner
I’m the first person you’ll speak to when you pick up the phone or drop a message across to Raise the Roof. What’s more, I’ll be the person who deals with your booking from start to finish, to make sure you’re truly looked after by someone who just ‘gets’ what you want and need from your marquee. I love meeting new clients and hearing about their plans for their weddings or events. Knowing that I can help them create their dream day and exceed their expectations along the way. Emma x

The Best Service!! Stunning Marquee

From the moment I saw the clear Marquee from E.L.S Marquee, I knew I had to have it. Not only were Emma and Simon incredibly professional and helpful, the setting up of the marquee was done with ease and at our convieniance and the marquee itself exceeded our expectations. We literally felt like we were in the middle of a field with the clear panels. It was perfect. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to friends and family. Thank you Emma and Simon. x

Totally going above and beyond worth her weight in

We hired Emma as a wedding planner for our wedding in July and we are so glad we did! Emma was amazing! From the start she was so friendly and efficient and took over all contacts from me and helped with any decisions I still had to make which took the pressure from me straight away! We had constant contact running up to the wedding so she could make sure everything ran smoothly. On the day! What can I say she was an absolute whirlwind! Totally going above and beyond and was worth her weight in gold! Not only did she ensure that everything went smoothly for us, she also looked after all our guests and everyone commented on how brilliant she was!! She absolutely made sure we had the perfect day and I can’t praise her highly enough! I would definitely recommend her as a must have for anyone getting married! Hannah

The Marques are beautiful and clean and the attention to detail that goes in to the setup and appearance is second to none.
