Don’t let the cold weather stop you from hosting your next outdoor event! At GC Event Hire, we understand the party must go on, regardless of the weather. We are here to show you that winter events don’t need to be restricted to the indoors. We’ve compiled our top ideas for ensuring your guests remain warm and snug!
Create a Hot Drink Station
Nothing is better on a chilly night than a warm drink! Have a range of coffee, tea and hot chocolate available for guest convenience. Guests tend to prefer making their own drinks and a self-serve station is a treat! However, it’s important that you have everything accounted for!
Our serving equipment includes; insulated jugs, milk jugs, teapots, coffee mugs, and tea cups and sugar bowls! Don’t forget to include those marshmallows for the hot chocolate!

Heaters
Outdoor gas heaters create a cosy winter haven for your guests. They keep your guests warm while they socialise, are portable and can be placed in multiple locations throughout your event! Incredibly quiet, our gas heaters provide plenty of advanced features that are guaranteed to keep your guests comfortable throughout the evening.
Food Warmers
Whether you’re serving a spicy curry, chunky vegetable soup or date pudding with custard, it’s important to have the right equipment to keep it at the right serving temperature! We have you covered with our range of food prep and warm storage solution ideas including; soup kettles, warming ovens, roasting ovens and chaffing dishes!

Marquees
Our marquees are perfect for Winter! Being waterproof and UV resistant, marquees are easy to set up and the clear roof options look beautiful under the night sky. You can maintain the temperature as the doors are sealed to keep the warmth in! Under the protection of one of our quality marquees your guests can relax and catch up with friends and family without worrying about the weather!
Lighting
You can give the illusion of warmth with fairy lights and festoon lighting. We love the look of festoon lighting strung on surrounding trees to make a gorgeous pathway to the venue. While it won’t keep your guest warm, it will produce light and create the beautiful illusion of glowing embers from a fireplace.

Blankets!
Lay an assortment of blankets and shawls around your seating area or even place them in cute vintage boxes at the entrance to let guests know they can snuggle up. It will be a welcome gesture once the chill of the evening sets in.
