About The Pearl Tent Company

The Pearl Tent Company hires white canvas wedding tents based on a Mughal design, built on British-engineered frames and set up from East Sussex across the UK and abroad.

The Pearl Tent Company is a wedding marquee hire business based in East Sussex. Its white canvas tents follow a Mughal design that goes back to the architecture of the sixteenth century, when the Mughal rulers raised large tented camps for royal weddings and celebrations. The geometric shape and clean symmetry also link to Art Deco, the style of 1920s Hollywood.

Each tent sits on a British-engineered frame that can withstand winds of up to 50mph. The company describes the Pearl Tent as the only Mughal marquee available to hire in the UK with such a frame. It looks after every event from the first contact to the clear-up afterwards, and treats each booking as bespoke. Although the team is based in Sussex, it can set up anywhere in the world and has experience erecting tents in unusual places, so couples are not tied to one location.
