Luxury marquee wedding trends for 2025 and 2026

Are you dreaming of a wedding that’s both timeless and trendsetting? Let us help you bring your vision to life. Luxury marquee weddings are set to shine in 2025 and 2026 with stunning innovations that take elegance to new heights. At Peacock and Bow, we’ve had the privilege of creating unforgettable moments for high-end events across Lincolnshire, Rutland, Cambridgeshire and beyond. We’re thrilled to share the top trends inspiring the most glamorous celebrations for the upcoming seasons.


1. Bespoke lighting installations

Lighting is no longer just practical; it’s a statement feature. From suspended Edison bulbs to grand chandeliers and twinkling LED light tunnels, creative lighting designs are transforming marquees into enchanting spaces after sunset.


Ideas to consider

  • Install a canopy of fairy lights for a magical ambiance

  • Incorporate dramatic pendant lights over dining tables to highlight the space

  • Create a “wow” moment with an illuminated dancefloor centrepiece


Why it works in a marquee

The open structure of a pole and canvas marquee offers the flexibility to suspend lighting at various heights, creating layers of visual interest.



2. Nature-inspired décor

Brides and grooms are embracing the natural world with earthy colour palettes, greenery installations and seasonal flowers taking centre stage. This trend seamlessly blends the beauty of outdoor landscapes with elegant marquee interiors.


Ideas to consider

  • Use cascading greenery and floral arrangements on poles or flower rings

  • Complement neutral tones with pops of seasonal blooms

  • Incorporate natural materials like wood, rattan, and linen into your table settings


Tip

Work with local florists in areas like Leicestershire and Bedfordshire to source seasonal and sustainable floral designs.



3. Mind-blowing dining experiences

Wedding dining is getting trendier and more bespoke, with gourmet tasting menus, expertly paired wines and lavish grazing tables stealing the show. Couples are all about creating culinary moments their guests will rave about.


Ideas to consider:

  • Kick off with a chic alfresco cocktail hour outside the marquee

  • Go interactive with food stations, like oyster shucking bars or crêpe-making stalls

  • Elevate your table settings with fine crystal glassware and custom-designed menus


Local tie-in

Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire boast exceptional caterers who are pros at curating menus to perfectly complement a luxury marquee setup.



4. Statement entrances

First impressions matter and couples are going big with grand marquee entrances. From floral arches to draped fabrics and custom signage, statement entrances set the tone for a truly unforgettable event.


Ideas to consider

  • Frame the entrance with seasonal flowers or greenery

  • Use soft draping or bold-coloured fabrics to add drama

  • Add a personalised welcome sign or monogrammed carpet


Practical note

Marquees provide the perfect blank canvas to bring any entrance vision to life, blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.



5. Sustainable celebrations

Eco-conscious couples are making sustainability a priority, choosing locally sourced materials, reusable decor and environmentally friendly practices. This trend combines luxury with responsibility, ensuring the beauty of the celebration doesn’t come at a cost to the planet.


Ideas to consider

  • Use potted plants or herbs as table centrepieces that guests can take home

  • Opt for biodegradable confetti and sustainable floral foam alternatives

  • Work with vendors who prioritise eco-friendly practices
