Mark The Occasion Hire

We’re based in Matlock and mainly cover weddings across Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and South Yorkshire. We generally work within around an hour of our showroom, but if you’re unsure whether we cover your venue, just drop us a message and we’ll happily check.

Yes! We have a large wedding décor showroom in Matlock where you can come and meet us, see lots of our décor in person and chat through ideas for your day. Showroom consultations are relaxed and informal – whether you know exactly what you want or need a little help figuring it all out.

Absolutely. We offer wedding décor packages as a starting point, but every wedding is different, so we're always happy to tailor things around your venue, style and budget. From a few beautiful finishing touches to complete ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening styling, we'll help you create the right package for your day.

Yes – that’s a big part of what we do! We’ll deliver your décor to the venue, set everything up ready for you and return to collect it afterwards. We want you to be enjoying your wedding morning, not worrying about setting up centrepieces, arches and chair décor.

Yes, where possible. Lots of our décor can be reused throughout different parts of your wedding day. We can discuss your timings and venue setup beforehand and work out what can be moved or repurposed, helping you get the most from your décor.

There’s no set rule. Popular dates can book well in advance, so it’s always worth getting in touch once your venue and date are confirmed — but we also regularly help couples much closer to their wedding. If your date is coming up soon, just ask! Our Finishing Touches packages are designed to make those last few details easy.

A £99 deposit secures your wedding date with us, with the remaining balance due four weeks before your wedding. Once your date is secured, we can continue working with you on the finer details as your plans come together.

Of course – and you definitely don’t need to know all the answers before speaking to us! Lots of couples come to our showroom with a colour scheme, a few inspiration photos or simply an idea of how they’d like their wedding to feel. We can talk everything through with you and help create a look that works beautifully with your venue and your day.

Yes. We understand that wedding plans evolve! Once you’ve booked, we’ll continue working with you as your ideas develop. We’re generally very flexible with changes and additions, subject to availability, and we’ll make sure everything is finalised in plenty of time before your wedding.

We’re a small, friendly husband-and-wife team and we genuinely care about every wedding we’re involved in. You’ll deal directly with Mark & Katie from your first message right through to your wedding day. We pride ourselves on being approachable, flexible and easy to contact, with a huge range of décor and our own Matlock showroom where we can bring your ideas together.
