Are you planning your wedding this year? Firstly, congratulations! Planning your dream wedding is an exciting time! The chance to finally tie the knot and celebrate everlasting love with your family and friends! But if this is your first time, I bet you’re wondering how much a wedding costs; more specifically a wedding venue. And it’s a given, that they can be expensive.
Venue Hire Costs –
The venue your wedding will be held in is probably your biggest and most important decision after saying your “ Yes’ ”, and this often takes the largest chunk of your wedding budget. Choosing your venue is the first step of your wedding planning journey, and it affects every aspect of your day. The average cost of a wedding venue in the UK is £8,080 (Hitched, January 2024). This obviously varies depending on the type of venue you choose, whether that be a luxurious castle or your local village hall.
Not sure where to start when it comes to choosing your venue? That’s where we come in! If you’re looking for a stunning, unique venue your guests will talk about for years to come and have your own fields or land you can hire (even just a big back garden!), a tipi tent is a fantastic venue choice. Here at Orchard Tipis, we offer high-quality tipis available to hire for your dream wedding day. It’s not the cheapest party you’ll ever throw, but approaching the planning stage with estimated costs for your venue can help cut them. Here are our tipi options we offer:
- Single Hat Tipi

Why should you consider a tipi as your wedding venue?
Tipis are a fantastic option as they are magical structures that are versatile and flexible with sides up, down or somewhere in between. You can add decor to make them yours or leave them as they are with the bare wood and atmospheric fairy lights that make them even more magical when the sun goes down. A tipi wedding offers a unique, memorable, and personalised experience that blends beautifully with natural settings, creates an intimate atmosphere, and allows your creative juices to go wild! If you’re looking for something beyond the traditional wedding setup, a tipi can provide the perfect backdrop for a celebration that’s truly reflective of your style and values.
Adaptable Space: Tipis offer flexibility in layout, allowing you to create different zones within your wedding space, such as dining, dancing, and lounging areas.
Creative Decoration Opportunities: The wooden poles and neutral canvas of a tipi provide endless opportunities for decoration. Whether you want fairy lights, floral arrangements, or bohemian drapes, the tipi’s structure allows for creative and personal touches. Connection to nature – tipis blend seamlessly with natural surroundings, making them perfect for outdoor weddings in beautiful settings like forests, fields, or by lakes. The open sides and natural materials allow you to feel more connected to the environment, enhancing the overall experience.
Perfect for Outdoor Lovers: If you and your partner love the outdoors, a tipi can align with your lifestyle and values, creating a wedding that feels authentic to who you are.
