We held our daughters wedding in a willow and Forde marquee this weekend and can’t speak highly enough of the service we received. The marquee was pristine and looked fantastic especially all lit up in the evening. Dan and Carl went the extra mile to ensure everything was perfect on the day and I can’t recommend them enough.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better marquee company for our wedding. From the very beginning, Dan was fantastic to deal with. His communication throughout the whole planning process was brilliant, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. The marquee itself was absolutely perfect and was set up well in advance of the wedding, which took away so much stress in the final few days. The whole team were so friendly and flexible, making sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. One of our favourite features was the bar in the middle of the marquee, it created such an amazing atmosphere and really became the heart of our wedding. It was everything we’d imagined and more, and it truly felt like the perfect home for our celebration. We’re so grateful to Dan and the whole Willow & Forde team for helping make our day so special. We had so many compliments from our guests about how incredible the marquee looked. If you’re considering Willow & Forde, don’t hesitate, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you so much for everything!

We honestly couldn’t recommend Willow and Forde enough. From our first chat right through to the wedding day, they were so easy to deal with. They answered every question we had and made everything feel really straightforward and stress-free. Dan was brilliant the whole way through. He really went the extra mile to make sure everything was just how we wanted it, and he was always there if we needed anything. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing a great job. The rest of the team were great too. Everyone was friendly, hardworking and professional, and it was clear they take a lot of pride in what they do. The marquee looked amazing and was finished to such a high standard – it was even better than we’d imagined. If you’re thinking about using Willow and Forde, we’d definitely recommend them. We’d choose them again without a second thought. Thanks so much to Dan and the whole team for helping make our wedding day so special.

We couldn’t have been happier with the marquee Willow & Forde provided for our wedding. It was absolutely beautiful, so spacious, incredibly well furnished, and it created the perfect setting for our day. From start to finish, the team were beyond helpful, efficient, and tidy. They listened to what we wanted and worked with us to make sure everything looked and felt right. I honestly can’t recommend Willow & Forde enough, thank you for helping make our day so special!

I sent this to Dan and Carl after our party: Thank you for all the advice, help and work that made our party last Saturday so good. Your professionalism and attention to detail delivered such a great setting for the event. So many people have commented that your marquee was the most beautiful they have seen. One even commented that they thought it looked like a film set! Thank you. They are simply excellent and provide a fantastic product and fantastic service. I could not recommend them more highly. Your search for a marquee is over!

We first came across Willow & Forde Marquees at a wedding fayre at Normanton Park Gardens, and from the moment we stepped into the marquee, we knew it was exactly what we wanted for our wedding day. It was absolutely stunning, full of character, and gave us the space and flexibility to create everything we had envisioned. From the day we booked, Dan was incredible. Planning a marquee wedding comes with so many decisions, but he made the entire process feel effortless. From helping us design the layout and offering suggestions we hadn’t even considered, to patiently accommodating every change and tweak along the way, nothing was ever too much trouble. What really stood out was how much care and attention Dan put into every detail. Any question was answered quickly, every idea was listened to, and every time I changed my mind, a revised floor plan would soon follow. It genuinely felt like he was just as invested in creating our perfect day as we were. On the wedding day, the marquee completely exceeded our expectations. It brought our vision to life perfectly and created the most beautiful setting for our celebration. So many of our guests commented on how incredible it looked, and it truly became the heart of the day. Dan, thank you for your dedication, patience, guidance and hard work throughout the entire journey. You didn’t just provide a marquee; you helped create the wedding day we had always dreamed of, and for that we will be forever grateful.

We highly recommend Willow and Forde. We hired their marquee for our wedding this year and could not fault Dan, Carl and the team’s service from start to finish. Excellent communication, always prompt and reliable. The setup was smooth, effective and very organised. We were so happy with our marquee for the wedding. Thank you all again.

Dan and the team are clearly experts at what they do! From start to finish Dan looked after us even when the weather went against us! Everyone was stunned by the marquee, which is particularly special at night. Thanks Team, Lucas & Hannah

It is going to be very hard to put into a small review how fabulous the service was from these guys. From booking, to building and then dismantling they were fabulous. Great communication, always going the extra mile, if we needed Ie extra bits after random bursts of inspiration (even during setting up!!) it was absolutely no bother. Now onto the marquee itself. We had the large petal and pole marquee with smaller marque and extras such as the new round bar and it was stunning!!! Highly highly recommend. Such a gorgeous space to host our wedding - our guests absolutely loved it and the marquee made it feel extra special. If you are looking for a beautiful marquee look no further! Thanks guys xx

We highly recommend Willow & Forde marquees for their professionalism and service. We booked our marquee with Dan and Carl for our wedding at Normanton Park Gardens, Rutland in September 2024. We went for a viewing in February and we were instantly wowed by it’s beauty and the incredible lighting and details within it. The rustic tables and furniture are just beautiful and require minimal decoration. Communication with these guys was exceptional and nothing was ever too much trouble. They are super friendly and were a massive help when it came to deciding the marquee layout. Dan, Carl and the team did a wonderful job of setting up the marquee ahead of the wedding so we had ample time to decorate the day before. The work they put in was immense to ensure every last detail was finished to perfection and we loved everything about it. Dan and Carl went above and beyond our expectations and worked to a very high standard. If you are looking for a unique marquee, please book a viewing today.

There’s such a lot to think about when planning a marquee wedding but the team from Willow & Forde were amazing. They answered all my daughter’s questions promptly (and there were many) were on hand to give advice and helped to make her dream wedding in a field, more or less in the middle of nowhere, come true. The marquee was absolutely beautiful, all the furniture fitted in with our theme and there was very little need for too much of our own decoration – which helped enormously. From the moment they appeared on site we relaxed, nothing was too much trouble. They arrived exactly when they said they would, coordinated the arrival of all the hired equipment and had the whole set up done in a couple of days leaving us plenty of time to make it uniquely ours. Removal was also seamless – for us at least – despite gale force winds and driving rain. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Ten stars. One daughter down, one to go and if her wish is also to have a marquee wedding, we’ll be back in touch!

We hired two marquees from Carl and Dan for our wedding last weekend. They were an absolute pleasure to work with and were so helpful and accommodating - by far our best supplier. They truly went the extra mile from start to finish and we felt in very safe hands. Their marquees are excellent and everyone complimented us on the space. I’d highly recommend using Willow and Forde!

We had an incredible experience with Willow and Forde Marquees back in May 2023. From the very beginning, they displayed great communication, which was especially important to ease the nerves of this anxious and stressed bride. They took the time to conduct site visits, ensuring everything was planned with great attention to detail. Their responsiveness and extensive knowledge of marquee setups were truly impressive, but what set them apart was their thoughtfulness and reliability throughout the entire process. They went above and beyond to bring our vision to life, and the result was a beautiful marquee that exceeded all expectations. Dan and Carl were not only accommodating but also a pleasure to work with, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. Their dedication and exceptional service were recognised, and as a result, I am sure to recommend them to everyone! I can’t recommend this marquee company enough. If you want an stress-free, seamless, and stunning event, they are the ones to trust with your special day.

We had our “festival” style wedding at our family farm, In Cumbria, on one of the wettest weekends of the summer. The marquee was very much needed. All the guests absolutely loved it. The lights and the well thought out set up made the day all the more special. Thanks to Dan and Carl’s hard work our wedding could still go ahead and made it for a brilliant atmosphere.

5 STAR SERVICE! Carl and Dan are an absolute pleasure to work with, professional and very trustworthy. They provided a couple of marquees for my recent wedding and made the whole process so easy. We actually had another contractor on site (for a different event) who was a nightmare and W&F stepped in and went above to help where they could. Would highly recommend and will definitely be using them again. Thanks so much guys!

We hired a 10x15 stretch tent with fairy lights for our garden wedding. Dan and the team were very helpful before the event in keeping us updated with timings The team were very quick and professional when erecting / dismantling the tent And most importantly, the tent was amazing. It was exactly what we wanted and looked so great lit up!

I used this company recently for my wedding reception and they draped my local village hall. The hall looked amazing. Dan and Carl were brilliant. Answered all my questions and were great to work with. Would highly recommend them.

We recently hired a marquee from this fantastic company for our wedding, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. From start to finish, Dan, Carl, and the entire team were nothing short of amazing. Their communication was fantastic and nothing was ever too much trouble. Dan and his team were so friendly and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The marquee was absolutely beautiful - elegant, spacious with a great dance floor and AMAZING bar! We had so many compliments from guests on the day, as well as after the event. If you’re looking for a marquee company that delivers both exceptional service and a stunning end result, look no further. We can’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you so much Dan, Carl and team- we are so grateful! Caroline & Sue

We were lucky enough to be recommended Willow and Forde for our wedding. They were our best vendor! Not only is the marquee absolutely beautiful they also bent over backwards to provide a ceremony tent and a table layout that was somewhat tricky ;). Dan also took away as much stress as he could by providing recommendations and even coordinating the arrival of other vendors such as the generator, fridge trailer and toilets on our behalf. I would recommend these guys to anyone and I am so sad to see the marquee go!

possible the best contractors we have worked with, super flexible, nothing too much trouble and the equipment was top notch. Happily recommend them.
