As soon as you mention 'wedding' their expectations double or triple.

we had 60 people at the ivy for less than half that including food, wine and room hire. Don't do it in a tent?

We contacted a local scout group who delivered and set up for us for cheap.

We used silverback stretch tents, based in Kenilworth. IMO stretch tents are way nicer than marquees anyway, and they were v reasonably priced and professional. https://www.silverbackstretchtents.com

Try Grice & Foster Events Ltd- we paid about £5k Inc vat for an 80x40ft tent plus contents, toilets and a generator, although a few years ago.
Squeezed 120 people + band & dance floor in and had it up for 3 days.

Organising my wedding for May next year. I know it shouldn't come as a surprise, but still shocked at some of the marquee quotes I've received so far. I don't suppose any has any suggestions/recommendations for vibey festival style tents that may be available at less than the £16k I've just been quoted by one company...
Cheers
