“I booked this company online, and from the very first conversation, I knew I was in good hands. Their communication was clear, friendly, and professional, which immediately gave me confidence that everything would run smoothly. On the day of the event, the team arrived right on time and worked efficiently to set up the marquee. The quality of the marquee itself was outstanding, clean, sturdy, and exactly what we had hoped for. Throughout the whole process, nothing was too much trouble. The team were approachable, helpful, and happy to answer any questions I had along the way. It made the entire experience completely stress-free and enjoyable. When it came time to take everything down, they were just as organised and careful, leaving everything spotless and tidy. From start to finish, their service exceeded my expectations in every way. I’m absolutely delighted I chose this company and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. I can’t recommend them highly enough, if you’re looking for a reliable, professional, and friendly marquee hire service, look no further!”

“We hired a 7m bell tent from Together Tents for my daughter’s 7th birthday sleepover, and it was absolutely perfect! Jo and Matt were fantastic from the moment I got in touch—friendly, responsive, and completely reliable. They turned up exactly when they said they would, both for set-up and collection, and made the whole experience hassle-free. The tent itself was beautiful and spacious, comfortably sleeping 10 very excited kids. The bright, colourful bedding they provided really added to the fun atmosphere, and they even brought extra blow-up mattresses just in case. A real highlight was the projector screen they set up for an outdoor movie once it got dark—such a magical touch! The kids had the best time and haven’t stopped talking about it since. It honestly made the party so memorable, and I’m already trying to think of another excuse to hire a bell tent from them again. I can’t recommend Together Tents highly enough—they were a pleasure to deal with and made everything so easy from start to finish.”

“We had a fantastic experience with Craig and his team for our wedding. We hired the 28 x 38ft capri tent which was perfect for what we needed. Communication before and after the event was great and the set up and take down process was super efficient. It was very helpful to be able to hire chairs as well. Thank you!”

“We couldn’t have been happier with the service provided by Marquees by Nixon for our wedding. The marquee, dance floor, tables, chairs, and cutlery etc were all absolutely perfect and exceeded our expectations. The marquee, in particular, was truly beautiful and created the perfect setting for our special day—it was exactly what we envisioned and definitely great value for money. Craig was fantastic to work with from start to finish. His communication throughout the entire process was excellent, ensuring that every detail was taken care of and that we felt confident and relaxed leading up to the big day. The setup was flawless, and everything looked stunning when it all came together. The quality of the marquee and all the rentals was top-notch, and it really made our wedding day extra special. If you’re looking for a marquee vendor who provides beautiful products, excellent value and outstanding customer service, we highly recommend Marquees by Nixon. They played a huge part in making our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be!”

“Craig and his team are fabulous! Craig is very polite and made everything simple! I had decided to have a marquee for my 60 birthday! Definitely the right decision, we added little touches like more greenery to bring the garden into the marquee and put extra light too, everyone was so impressed! I had a birthday to remember.”
Dionne – July 2024
“I just wanted to ‘feedback’ to say a huge thank you for providing such a wonderful marquee for our party on Sunday and for your amazing customer service throughout – from the point of preliminary enquiry and booking through to installation and clear up. All of our guests commented on how lovely the marquee looked on the night and it was very comforting for me to know that we had ‘cover’ arranged given the inconsistencies with the English weather this summer! Please pass on my thanks to all your team. If we decide to have another party at home in the future, we will be in touch again!”
Clare – July 2024
“Just to say a huge thanks to you and the team. What a great service from start to finish. Will certainly be recommending your company.”
Anne – June 2024
“Fantastic service by the guys at Nixon. The marquee was stunning and the team that put it up were so friendly and efficient. It really topped off our wedding. Would highly recommend.”
Adam – June 2024
“We wanted to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU for everything you did for our wedding celebrations. We truly enjoyed working with you in the lead-up to the event and on the big day itself. Every time we received an email from you, we’d excitedly text each other saying, “CRAIG’S REPLIED!” Craig was fantastic at putting us at ease. He did site visits, ensured everything would go to plan, and remained approachable and professional when we changed our plans. The cherry on top of the cake was the organisation of the gorgeous bell tents for our guests, they were truly exceptional. Craig’s professionalism and approachability were outstanding, especially when we encountered issues with the initial marquee setup. Your assistance in securing the fridge trailer and coordinating the bell tents was particularly appreciated. Thank you once again for making our wedding day so special.”
Alice and Jake – June 2024
“Craig was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was happy to go the extra mile. We had a 8m x 12m marquee with coloured swags for 2 days for our wedding festival which was held in a wild eco campsite. Plus we had a dance floor, bistro chairs, tables and table cloths. The team that put up and took down the marquee were great and also a pleasure to have on site. Right from the first contact made with the company, everything went smoothly. Craig carried out a site visit at our request and went above and beyond when asked for advice on associated aspects of our weekend plans. I felt confident that his company would deliver and that it would all be fine. If you want a marquee and to know that you will have no issues, this is the company to go to. Please pass on our thanks to your team Craig.”
Diane and Jules – May 2024
“Craig and his team provided the marquee for our wedding in Romsey. They were fantastic throughout and the marquee finished off the garden perfectly. Highly recommend.”
Guy – May 2024
“Craig and his team have been fantastic supporters of ‘Off The Fence’s Big Sleep Out for the Homeless’ for the last two Novembers. Affordably priced, efficient, well prepared and friendly, they made the challenge of setting up an encampment of 100+ people much easier than it has any right to be. If you require a marquee expertly supplied, erected, lit and swiftly dis-assembled at the end of the event, Marquees by Nixon are definitely where you should pitch your tent.”
Off the Fence Trust – November 2023
“I booked Marquees by Nixon for my housewarming party (20 guests) in Hampshire in September 2023. I was very impressed and happy with the service they offered. They were helpful and friendly and provided a large marquee for my guests along with tables and chairs. Ordering was easy, and delivery and collection very flexible and stress-free. I can wholeheartedly recommend them and wouldn’t think twice about using their services again.”
Adam, Hampshire – September 2023
“Superb service by Craig who helped us out at short notice, Great team working for him. Hired a capri marquee for a party for 40+ guests and was amazing. Total professional from start to finish.”
Andy – August 2023
“We had an absolutely fantastic experience using Marquees by Nixon. Craig was extremely helpful and communicative throughout the process, and his wisdom around the choice of marquee given the unsettled weather conditions was crucial. Will certainly be using Marquess by Nixon again!”
William – July 2023
“Great service from start to finish. We used the igloo for a silent disco and it was perfect. Our guests has a fab time and danced all night. I would highly recommend this company.”
Samantha – July 2023
“We used these guys for our wedding, it’s a nice family company and they were very flexible with set up. The marquee and chairs we hired were really nice and housed the entire event including a barn dance. Prices very competitive.”

“Craig and his team were fabulous. The marquees were a real show stopper and the dressed bell tent was a great alternative to a honeymoon suite! Thank you so much for helping to make my daughters special day go without a hitch.”
Pamela – May 2023
“Can’t recommend these guys enough. Recently hired a Capri Marquee for a work event. Craig is fabulous with support up to the event, and then the set-up and take down was really great. The marquee looked fab and was life saver in the summer sun! Already booked again for another event!”
Olivia – September 2022
“Thank you so much for the fabulous igloo we had over the weekend. From start to finish, the service has been polite professional and efficient. The Igloo looked fantastic and all the little decorative touches made it so beautifully special. We would definitely use again! 5 star service.”
Vanessa – September 2021
“Craig got us out of trouble at Wickham Festival when the winds took my own gazebo out, despite the fact that it was end of day. Within what felt like 5 minutes he had us weathertight and windproofed. Can’t thank him enough!”
Caron – August 2021
“From the very beginning the communication between ourselves and Craig was fantastic and he was always available to discuss any questions that arose. The marquee arrived two days before the event and Craig and his team were polite and professional and erected the marquee in super quick time. We also hired tables, chairs and glasses through Craig and these were all delivered. We decorated it ourselves and all our guests were amazed at how good a marquee looked in our garden and it was a fantastic addition to our wedding. After the wedding, the team collected everything when we were on honeymoon and on our return everything was back to normal. I cannot thank Craig enough for his consistent engagement and professionalism and would wholly recommend.”
Michelle & Ian, Fareham – July 2019
“Thank you so much for making my party go so well, by making the hiring of the marquee and accessories so easy. It was such a pleasure to talk to you, you were always so kind, tolerant and helpful. Above all you were efficient but really friendly, it was a joy meeting you all. We will definitely be using you in the future, don’t ever stop smiling.”
David & Liz, Nr Lyndhurst – July 2018
“I just wanted to put down in writing how much we appreciated your excellent, friendly and highly efficient service regarding the marquee at our daughter’s wedding party last Sunday. We all thought it looked perfect in the setting and was much appreciated by guests. The sun got quite hot over the course of the day so it provided the perfect shaded refuge for those who needed it, yet was large enough for many others to just pop in and out to collect drinks etc. Rest assured that we would have no hesitation in recommending your company to anyone hoping to host a similar event.”
Lesley & Jeff, Guildford – May 2018
“Fantastic service, from start to finish. Craig provided a marquee for my sons christening, he couldn’t have done more. The communication was fantastic, he came to do a site visit and delivery and collection were brilliant too.”
Lucy – September 2017
“I wanted to formally thank you and your wonderful team for your splendid service this weekend and in the process leading up to it. It seems to be so rare these days to find someone as solution-oriented (with good humour too) as yourself. Nothing has been too much trouble for you, so thank you for that. I will definitely be recommending you to anyone planning a marquee party.”
Michele, South Harting – August 2017
“You were a delight to work with, always so responsive to queries and requests. From the time Shonagh and I chose Marquees by Nixon as our marquee and interior provider, we had peace of mind because we felt, quite rightly as it turned out, that you were wholly professional and reliable. Thank you so much for making our day so special.”
Geoff, Rowlands Castle – June 2016
“I wanted to say a huge thank you for the lovely marquee you provided for my father’s 90th birthday party. It was perfect for the day providing shelter from the rain and somewhere to sit in the evening. It was a joy to do business with you – everything was so easy and uncomplicated from the first phone call to the dismantling and removal of the marquee. We had wonderful service from lovely people and we would have no hesitation in using you again and recommending you.”
Helen, Gosport – June 2015
“We can’t thank you enough for the professional and efficient services you provided. You gave us the “wow!” factor we were looking for for our anniversary celebration – all our guests were very complimentary about the Capri marquee, and it fitted in brilliantly with our garden setting. You saved us an enormous amount of stress with the supply of tables, plates, and cutlery: we don’t cater for 50 people every day of the week. For any prospective clients you may have out there, we can’t recommend you highly enough.”
Richard & Vicky, Farnham – July 2014
“My husband and I wanted you to know how impressed we were with your marquee service. From the outset it was clear to us that we were in very safe and knowledgeable hands. From the comprehensive quote, quickly supplied, to the attention to detail in terms of our requirements, through to the actual assembly and removal, it was a thoroughly professional service which we would be more than happy to recommend. The marquee arrived on time, left on time, was exactly as we had ordered and all the extra requirements were exactly met. All of this helped hugely in enabling us to get on with enjoying our party which we certainly did.”
Tracy, Portsmouth – August 2013
“I just wanted to say thank you for your contribution to our party on Sunday. The marquee and all the trimmings looked fantastic, the sun came out and we had a fabulous day! My husband was fooled until we arrived! I shall certainly recommend your firm if anyone asks me about it, all the best.”
Carol, Warblington – July 2012
“A note to say thank you so much for providing your wonderful marquee for our wedding. All of our guests were amazed that it wasn’t just a “tent”! Your service and communication were excellent, we will certainly be recommending you to our friends and family (and anyone else who asks!) and we hope to call on your services again.”
Laura & Tony – May 2011
