40th Birthday Garden Marquee – Glasgow
The Requirements & Scope
Our client wanted to celebrate their milestone birthday at home with a stylish and comfortable setting that made the most of their garden space. The goal was to create a fully enclosed marquee on a sloping lawn and adjoining patio, with a glamorous Oscar-themed atmosphere in purple tones, suitable for evening entertainment with food, drinks, and dancing.
Our Deliverable
We designed and installed a 9m x 9m framed marquee glasgow using our steel sub-frame floor to level the sloping ground and seamlessly bridge the patio area. This provided a smooth, safe surface for guests while maintaining the garden’s natural layout. We provided:
Full enclosure with solid glazed doors for warmth and sound insulation
Integrated heating units for guest comfort throughout the evening
A tailored lighting package featuring purple uplighting and festoon lighting to match the “Oscar Night” theme
Optional extras included a small DJ booth area, high cocktail tables, and soft seating
