Large/Marquee Weddings

Who doesn’t love a big wedding? There’s something so magical about having everyone meaningful to you both in the one place celebrating your love. Big families, lots of friends, all eyes on you - that’s what it’s all about!

There are a plethora of beautiful venues across Tasmania that we have worked with to bring countless couples’ dream weddings to life. Often for smaller venues (where possible) a marquee is required to accommodate your guests for the reception and cocktail party. Artaud & Co are able to provide you with personal recommendations for venues we know will be able to suit your guest list and requirements, even some that aren’t even advertised.

A clear marquee under the stars is the perfect blank canvas to create your dream wedding amongst the most incredible backdrops this state has to offer. With your ceremony close by on the same property, your guests will only have to travel a few steps to the reception, saving time and energy that could be better spent dancing up a storm!

Planning and styling a big wedding is not for the faint of heart, and can be akin to a full-time job for the inexperienced. Artaud & Co have the local expertise, planning and styling know-how, and project management skill to ensure your big day goes exactly to plan. We are your one stop shop for all your styling, lighting, planning and coordination needs.

We’ll work with you from start to finish to create your dream wedding without the stress of going it alone. We also provide on-the-day coordination to ensure you and your loved ones can just relax on the day.

Apart from the venues listed on our website, we have a more extensive list of locations on offer for our medium to large weddings- enquire within.

FAQs

  • A wedding planner is the ultimate support for one of the biggest days of your life. We allow you to enjoy the lead-up to, and the day of your wedding or elopement by alleviating the stress and logistical challenges of organising such a large event. We curate the best team and ensure it runs like clockwork on the day.

  • Such a momentous day deserves to look the part! If this is the only time you get married, why not make it memorable? Much like our planning services, we take all the stress out of the equation and bring together the best creative team to deliver the most beautiful day you could ever dream of.

  • We offer 5, 10 and 20 hour partial planning sessions. We also have a standalone wedding coordination service that we can provide as well. Peak weekends do incur a minimum spend though, so check with us first.

  • To provide the best possible result and smoothest operation, we are only able to offer complete styling packages.

  • We put you in touch with some of the most incredible creative talent Tasmania has to offer - but the final decisions are ultimately up to you. We respect that your big day is indeed yours, so if you have your heart set on someone specific, we’ll do our best to accommodate them.

  • As a general estimate, you can expect your budget to be:

    10-40 guests: $20,000-$40,000
    40-80 guests: $40,000-$70,000
    80-100 guests, seated: $80,000-$100,000
    80-100 guests, bare-bones/marquee: $80,000-$150,000

    These estimates are general in nature and do not factor in your personal requirements/requests, location/logistical considerations or price increases. We will issue you an estimate budget as part of our planning services based on the venues you have shortlisted.

  • Absolutely! We love and welcome couples of all orientations and identities.

  • Tulle, fairy lighting and chair covers. Our style is modern and on trend.

  • An elopement is typically just two, but some couples do invite a small amount of guests. If it is just the two of you, we are your one of your witnesses, the second being your photographer.

  • We work with the best venues across Tasmania, but for aesthetic purposes, restrictive timelines and other reasons, this does not include all of them. Venues listed on our website menu are not the complete list of venues we work with though, so enquire within if you have one in mind.

  • Yes. Our team will need to bump out on the night and additional planning needs to be factored in, all of which will add to the cost, but if your heart is set on it, let us know!

  • There are obviously more logistical challenges to consider which will add to your budget, and you may be limited with vendors, styling assets and/or facilities.

  • We sure do! If you’re on the mainland we’d love to be a part of your special day. We source all assets from your chosen location and we travel to you. Get in touch with us here.
