Marquee

We are having an outdoor reception (Sept) and are debating whether to have a marquee. My FH says it`s an unnecessary waste of money, however, I would like to have one as you can never be too sure of the weather. Am I right or wrong???

A marquee? As in a large lighted sign with an announcement on it?

? - what? A marquee is a large tent used for public events - where are you from???

M - Yes, hire one if you can. It is better to be safe than sorry and it will also give your wedding a better look. Good Luck!

Why does it matter where I am from? Just because I have never planned an outdoor event, I am automatically required to know double definitions? I am from california and we call lighted signs Marquees and tents, well tents. Glad I am not from the same town you are from, Stuffy, Snotty town!!

?- Don`t feel bad, I thought this this question was about those lighted signs, too. Guess us hicks out here in Colorado don`t know too much `bout this fancy weddin` bizness. :)
