HOW MUCH DO WEDDING TENTS, TIPIS & YURTS COST IN THE UK?
In the UK, modern wedding tents, tipis and yurts typically range from around £1,500 to £12,000+, depending on the type of structure, size, accessories, and level of customization.
At the more accessible end of the range, couples can expect basic marquee or smaller tipi setups — ideal for intimate weddings or shorter hire durations. Mid-range pricing generally reflects larger tipis or modular tents with flooring, lighting, and basic décor features. Higher-end pricing often includes premium yurts or large festival-style structures complete with bespoke linings, luxury flooring, engineered staging, heating, furniture packages and creative installations.
Factors that commonly influence pricing include:
Type of structure (tents, tipis, yurts — each has different base costs)
Size and guest capacity
Flooring, staging, and interior finishes
Lighting, heating, and weather-proofing
Furniture, lounges, bars, and décor packages
Installation logistics, site terrain, and ground preparation
Location and travel requirements
Most suppliers include the basic structure and installation in their standard pricing, but many add ons — like carpets, festoon lighting, soft furnishings, draping, bars and customised décor — are priced separately or as bundles.
Rather than focusing solely on price, many couples find it helpful to consider how the style of structure, layout possibilities and supplier approach align with the kind of experience and atmosphere they want to create on the day. This is why browsing curated options like the Book of Love can make it easier to find the right fit.
