Three weeks in an exposed field, challenging autumn weather and a busy seasonal event — the Doughnotts events team put their Mini Marquee through its paces at Nottingham’s Pick Your Own Pumpkins.
Suzy and Tammy had already been using their Mini Marquee at Doughnotts events throughout the year. Their recent three-week booking gave them an extended opportunity to see how it performed in demanding outdoor conditions.
With an exposed location, heavy rain and the storms over half term, reliable shelter was an important part of their event set-up.
A marquee they could depend on
Reflecting on their experience, Suzy and Tammy told us:
“The marquee stood up to every element of the weather without a single issue. No faults, no problems and absolutely no concerns with the structure. It was fantastic and gave us exactly the reliable, secure event space we needed.”
It’s fantastic to receive feedback like this from a team using our products regularly. For food and drink businesses attending markets, festivals and seasonal events, dependable equipment makes a real difference to day-to-day operations.
Support when it mattered
The team’s five-star review also highlighted the support they received from Lee and Keaton.
Conditions were already windy on installation day, and the team needed help at short notice. Lee and Keaton attended to assist with the set-up and anchorage.
“They came out to us at very short notice to help, and their professionalism, knowledge and willingness to go the extra mile really made all the difference.”
At Mini Marquees, we believe the support behind a product matters just as much as the product itself. From choosing the right set-up to helping existing customers, we’re proud to build lasting relationships with the businesses using our marquees.
Thank you, Suzy and Tammy
A huge thank you to Suzy and Tammy from the Doughnotts events team for sharing their experience and trusting Mini Marquees throughout the year.
This review reflects the team’s experience at this particular event. Correct anchorage, site conditions and ongoing weather assessments remain essential for every outdoor set-up.
