A simple order of operations for marquees, furniture, power, cooling and event equipment.
Guest count and format
Start with seated, cocktail, ceremony or mixed-format numbers.
Measure the site
Map usable area, access, slopes, anchoring restrictions and wet-weather options.
Furniture before extras
Tables and chairs determine floor area; add bar, buffet, stage and dance-floor space after that.
Power and comfort
Lighting, audio, refrigeration, heating and cooling often need a separate power plan.
Delivery sequence
Large structures should generally arrive before furniture and decorative items.
Useful next step
Once you know what equipment you need, compare the full hire period, accessories, delivery and damage terms—not just the headline day rate.
