Heating for wedding receptions and marquees: FAQs

Why are portable heaters important for wedding receptions?

Portable heaters are an essential investment for wedding venues of all types. Without a heating solution that can be positioned where needed, cold temperatures can put a damper on the enjoyment of any wedding party, causing discomfort and cooling any hot food served.

Mobile venue and marquee heaters also tackle chilly conditions inside your temporary and permanent structures. Without this essential technology, cool air can erode the comfort, health and safety of your staff, making it harder for them to focus on their day-to-day tasks.

Another reason why portable space heating solutions are vital is their ability to help prevent condensation from forming in your marquees, tents and halls. If this is allowed to happen, the resulting moisture can damage the pristine decor in your buildings and erode the fabric of your venue.

If you’re looking for impartial advice about event-based heating solutions, speak to our experts about your exact needs today.

What types of portable heaters are best for my wedding venue?

To maintain a comfortable and warm atmosphere in your enclosed spaces, it’s important to consider fit-for-purpose temperature control, such as:

  • Electric fan heaters

  • Infrared heaters

  • Indirect heaters

  • Tent heaters

Talk to our experts to discuss which portable warm air system is ideal for marquees, halls and other wedding venues.

How many heaters will I need for my wedding marquee?

This depends. Every marquee is different and, depending on the conditions outside and the number of occupants you accommodate, the ideal unit (or number of units) can vary.

To know what the best heating solution is for your venue, it’s important to speak to our team of informed experts.

Can your portable heaters be used safely in a marquee?

Yes. The warm air technology we supply is perfectly safe for use in all types of wedding marquees, tents and other temporary indoor spaces. That’s because we incorporate forward-thinking safety features throughout our entire selection, including:

  • Overheat protection that prevents units from becoming dangerously hot

  • External thermostats that track the heat being produced

  • Easy and flexible handling for safe use and transportation

What should I consider when choosing a portable heater for my wedding venue?

Acquiring the ideal space heating technology is an important consideration. To get it right, you need to ask the right questions, such as:

  • What type of heater would best suit my needs? (indirect-fired space heater, electric fan heater, etc.)

  • What environments do I use to accommodate my wedding guests? (marquees, halls, etc.)

  • What is the size and layout of my venue? (spacious, open plan, enclosed, etc.)

  • What features do I need to host guests safely? (overheat protection, external thermostats, etc.)

By accounting for all these factors, and many other considerations, we help you acquire the most appropriate warm air technology for your wedding venue and marquees. Talk to our experts to get started today.

How do I power electric heaters in a marquee?

If your venue’s marquee is positioned too far away from your main building, providing electricity to these temporary structures can be done with a dedicated generator or portable power station.

Can I buy your heaters for wedding receptions and marquees online?

We don’t make our heating equipment for events available to purchase online to ensure that every system we design, manufacture and supply fits your exact requirements. By taking a consultative approach with a highly-trained expert, we make sure that you are only recommended equipment that meets your needs – and fulfils these in the most efficient, cost-effective way possible.

Across all of our products, VAT-registered companies can get a quote very quickly by pressing 'I want to buy' and inserting your enquiry and contact details.

How soon can you supply heaters to my wedding venue or marquee?

This varies on a case-by-case basis. For some standard products, accessories and consumables, we can provide day-to-day delivery. For larger orders or more bespoke heating solutions, there may be a longer lead time.

By reaching out to our experts we can put you in touch with your nearest local supplier so you can receive the products you require in the most timely manner possible.

No. Dantherm Group’s range of heaters for weddings and events are only sold to industry professionals directly from our offices, or via our extensive network of distributors.
