I couldn't recommend taddle farm tents enough. We got married earlier this year at Gorwell Barn. We hired tables, chairs, rustic ladder lighting, outside festoon lighting, benches and some other items. They communicated so quickly with me throughout the whloe process during a difficult year. Including accommodating all the last minute changes we made due to the restrictions changing so near to the date. During the set up they made the process so easy and liaised with the other suppliers to ensure it went smoothly.
Thankyou

We hired tables and chairs, hanging ladders with Edison bulbs, fairy lights (and a last minute marquee!) from Taddle Farm for our wedding in August 2021. They were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. I sent a couple of photos of things I liked and they came back to me each time with recommendations and were always happy to make changes to make things look better and cost less! I would 100% recommend them, they're experienced, professional, knowledgeable and seem to have everything you could possibly need!

We had a wonderful experience with the team at Taddle for our wedding. They were really accommodating and helpful when we had to change our furniture order due to covid restrictions, and everything they provided was great quality (and looked fantastic). Can't recommend them enough.

Simply the best. We hired a marquee, furniture, toilets, lighting and PA system from Taddle Farm Tents for our wedding. They were fantastic, adding a marquee to a field with no other facilities can be quite daunting but they sorted everything. Charlie and John were alway available and really easy to deal with, nothing seemed to be too much trouble. I would highly recommend them to anyone considering using them.

We just wanted to send a quick review and to say a huge thank you for all your help with our wedding. you really helped our vision come to life, the furniture, lights, marquee and everything was just perfect. we go married at Tithe Barn in Bridport in Oct 2021. Thanks so much for the easy communication - as we made lots of changes over the 12 months of planning, you were so understanding and a pleasure to deal with. Always quick to respond, information was always really clear and you really know what you are talking about. No matter who in the team we spoke to, they all knew the details.
