Planning a tipi event can be daunting, but with the help of Raw Tipis, you can have a beautiful and successful event. When choosing an outdoor venue, there are a few key factors to consider, including space, accessibility, amenities included, weather, and cost. Here’s a closer look at each of these important factors:
Space:
Raw Tipis offers a variety of tipi sizes to accommodate any event, from small gatherings to large weddings. When choosing a venue, ensure there is enough space to accommodate your tipis and any other structures or installations you’ll be bringing in, such as a catering tent or vintage bar. You’ll also want to consider the size of your guest list and ensure enough room for everyone to move around comfortably.

Accessibility:
Consider the venue’s location and whether it is easily accessible for you, your guests, and all suppliers. Most suppliers arrive in large vans and may have trailers, so commercial vehicle access is essential. You should also think about the availability of parking and any other transportation needs you may have.
Amenities:
Understand what amenities the venue provides and what you’ll need to bring in yourself. This may include toilets, power, or other necessary items. If your venue does not supply power or toilets, Raw Tipis can book these on your behalf for no additional cost, often at a reduced rate. We work with some incredible suppliers such as Nomadic Washrooms for Shepherd Hut loos.
Weather:
The beauty of tipis is that they merge the outside world with the internal setting, but the unpredictable weather in England can be a concern when planning an outdoor event. You should avoid venues that have a prevailing wind coming from the direction of the view. The team at Raw Tipis are always happy to come to the venue to advise the best options.
Cost:
There are often hidden costs associated with venues, so it’s important to understand all the fees upfront. Make sure you create a budget and stick to it when choosing a location. Raw Tipis can help you understand all the costs associated with different types of venues and provide you with a detailed quote that includes all fees.
Conclusion:
By considering these factors, you can choose an outdoor venue that is perfect for your tipi event. And with the help of Raw Tipis, you can have a beautiful and successful event that is sure to be remembered for years to come. From finding the perfect location to handling all the logistics, we have you covered every step of the way.
