How to find a marriage provider?

What are the questions to know to organize my wedding with a company?

Find a provider by word of mouth

Have you ever participated in weddings with your family or friends? Ask them how the organization went and how they did it?

You can contact these same providers, to establish your first budget.

Searching the Internet to Find Your Wedding Provider

Then, we recommend that you go to the Internet to list the companies, rental companies of structures and marquees.

The more numerous and precise the photos for the same product, the more the service provider is used to performing his work.

Before contacting an event company, it is a good idea to define the following points:

• Location
• Date
• Number of guests
• Theme
• Access to installation area with 3.5 t vehicle up to heavy goods vehicle
• With these elements, use the search engines to find your provider.

Be careful, they will use your geolocation and find providers around you.

For the marquees, some internet users from Luxembourg, Switzerland, Belgium, Great Britain, took a long time to find us, because they did not know the name of the product sought such as Nomad Tent, Bamboo Tent, Asian Tent, …

Beware of websites dedicated to weddings

Beware of sites specializing in weddings, referencing a large number of event companies (tent hire, lighting designer, hairdresser, etc.). It is a paid service which does not necessarily highlight the best provider….

It may even happen that some companies buy a medal distinguishing them from other companies. Of course, sites specializing in weddings do not necessarily have the knowledge of the trade of installation or event equipment ... their vocation is to sell "a showcase" to their customers.

They are generally not present at receptions and therefore cannot enjoy this profession. Their search bar with them is nevertheless interesting, because it can help you go around all of your needs.

How to contact service providers, tent hire?

You should know that when you go online, your request reaches a large number of companies. For example, if you request a quote in Provence for a Wedding planner, the shipment is addressed to all providers in Provence.

It is much more efficient to have telephone contact. At Alliance chapiteaux, we prioritize human contact above all. Our website perfectly illustrates our image. However, the discussion with one of our employees will attest to the seriousness of our business.

Many people use Google image

When making contact, do not hesitate to give as much information as possible, such as the nature of your land, the slope, the accesses, the presence of obstacles, sanitary facilities, etc.

When you receive three commercial offers, from the same sector of activity (nomad tent for example or shade sail), make sure you understand each offer.

Description of offers

The surface of the rental tents

The surface area required is determined based on several factors: the number of people, standing or seated, round tables or rectangular table, dance floor or not, buffet tables under the structure, etc.

As a general rule, count 1m² per person standing, 1.20m² per person seated on a rectangular table and 1.50m² per person seated on a round table.

Pay attention to the name of "150 m² tent" because that means nothing; Namely a tent with intermediate poles or are there several structures reaching 150m²?

A professional must complete the following fields:

• Side height
• Ridge, width
• Length or Long-pan
• Width or Gable
• Interfacing type

IMPORTANT, check if the marquee company provides you with the "extract from the safety register". This document certifies that the reception tent meets French regulations. If not, be careful.

For Alliance Chapiteaux, 150m² is a structure (because there is no 150m² tent) with a dimension of 10x15m, lateral height 3m and 4.80m at the ridge with white canvas covering.

You already have a much better approach to the product.

Rental of reception parquet

The same is true for the floor. There are several types of floors: either it is a floor with wooden planks placed on the ground, or, a floor with a metal frame and above all we specify the height of the shimming provided beforehand.

The landing floor setting techniques

Why the timing? You should know that there is no strictly flat terrain.

There is always a slope for water drainage. So if you want a flat and flat floor, it will have to be wedged and this will generate an additional cost.

Telephone contact with an event company

We recommend that you contact the rental companies by phone as direct contact is above all the most important. The images, the website is nothing compared to your feelings towards the person. The professional service provider can advise you, guide you and above all follow you from A to Z for your event. Its main purpose will be to satisfy you. Identify the problems of the place hosting your event reception with your service providers. You have to ask questions and see specific answers with the technique. You will easily identify the veracity of your interlocutor, his experience, and the confidence of his product.

Meetings with event companies

Do not hesitate to bring several providers on site.

At Alliance Chapiteaux, we always plan a location visit well before your event. This allows us to check the installation area, the access conditions of our vehicles, check the various constraints, assess the terrain and determine if there is a need for stalling. This avoids unpleasant surprises and allows you to be effective on the day of assembly. Our first offer is non-contractual until the location has not taken place.

Our experience and the diversity of our products, both in events and in industry, have enabled us to find solutions, in particular on the size, the type of reception cover as well as the determination of the location for our customers' receptions.

When to reserve a reception tent?

It is best to book the rental of a structure, marquee or tent as soon as possible.

The more a provider offers specific products, the more it will be coveted. A wedding is usually planned 1 year in advance and there are many booking requests. It's like booking your vacation on the internet or at a travel agency, the more you hesitate and the more other vacationers have taken your place.

At Alliance Chapiteaux, reservations begin from mid-October for the summer period.
