Facilities and Capacity
The Grand Marquee Brentwood has everything you need to celebrate the wedding of your dreams. Boasting extensive private gardens brimming with flowers and trees and a chic pergola, couples can say 'I do' under the endless blue sky in this picturesque setting. The marquee can accommodate intimate get-togethers and extravagant soirees, with a sit-down capacity for 80 to 400 guests.
Between 100 and 500 loved ones can comfortably witness your milestone for a more laidback standing occasion. On the property, you'll find a commercial kitchen for your caterers, a canape/bar area, bridal changing room, a sofa/snug area, restrooms, and a spacious car park. You can make your wedding dreams a reality here with the freedom to hire your own design team, florist, entertainment, and more.
This marquee is also ideal for DIY weddings. The venue allows couples to arrive in the morning and stay until midnight to allow time for setup, break down, and, of course, making unforgettable memories.

The Grand Marquee Brentwood offers competitive pricing depending on the day you're hosting your milestone celebration. The team can provide large, round tables and banqueting chairs, giving you one less thing to worry about. As a dry hire venue, the marquee will act as a blank canvas for you to personalise as you wish.
There is no accommodation on site. However, there is a Travel Lodge a short walk away from the venue.

- YYetunde and Olajide Banjo04/11/2025Our Wedding DayOur Wedding DayI’m so happy I booked The Grand Marquee Brentwood, it was absolutely perfect for our traditional wedding! It’s such a versatile venue and super convenient for guests, especially with the Travelodge right next door for overnight stays. The space worked perfectly for bringing my vision to life with the decorating team (who were actually recommended by the venue!). They have a great list of trusted vendors available upon request, which made things so much easier. The events team showed professionalism throughout the entire planning process and were so accommodating with all my requests.

- AApi & Jeevi22/09/2025Our Wedding at The Grand Marquee BrentwoodOur Wedding at The Grand Marquee BrentwoodWe had our wedding at The Grand Marquee Brentwood and it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect. From the start, Deanne was absolutely amazing. She was so easy to communicate with, always quick to answer questions and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. In the lead up she really helped keep us organised, on the day she made sure everything ran smoothly, and afterwards she was still just as supportive. She honestly helped calm our nerves and made the whole process feel a lot less overwhelming, we felt in very safe hands! The venue itself is beautiful and has so much potential to make it your own. In the summer especially it looks stunning, and with loads of parking, guests had no issues. It’s also in a great spot with a Travelodge nearby, so people who wanted to stay overnight found it really easy. Plus having a Starbucks and a pub on site made it super convenient for guests before and after the big day. We couldn’t recommend The Grand Marquee Brentwood enough and a special shoutout to Deanne for being such a star. If you’re planning a wedding or big event, this place and team really go above and beyond.We had our wedding at The Grand Marquee Brentwood and it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect.
