Think of a Wedding Bell Tent Village as your guests' very own bespoke on-site accommodation solution at your venue. Instead of everyone having to book different hotels and sort out taxis, Ysella provides a village of bell tents all set up and ready to go. It means you can keep the party going for longer, hang out with your favourite people, and have a full wedding weekend experience without logistical hassle.
Why Go for a Bell Tent Village?
Choosing a bell tent village is a game-changer for your wedding. Here’s why:
No Taxi Drama: Your guests can simply stroll back to their tents at the end of the night. No need for designated drivers or scrambling to book a taxi at 1 a.m.
Keep the Party Alive: The fun doesn't have to stop when the band does. With everyone staying on-site, you can have a relaxed morning-after brunch or a late-night campfire.
An Unforgettable Vibe: It's a bit like a mini festival just for your wedding! The tents create a relaxed atmosphere that’s way more memorable and fun than a standard hotel stay.
Super Easy for Everyone: Guests traveling from far away have a comfy, convenient place to stay, making it a breeze for them to attend and fully enjoy the celebration.
What's Included in the Service?
Ysella handles everything so you don't have to lift a finger. Here’s what you can expect:
Easy Setup and Takedown: We arrive at your venue, get all the tents and furnishings perfectly set up, and then come back after the wedding to pack everything away. It's totally hassle-free for you.
Tents for Everyone: We provide a mix of single and multi-person tents to suit all your guests. Plus, we offer special, extra-luxe Honeymoon Bell Tent for the Bride and Groom.
We Handle Bookings: Ysella will manage all the guest bookings and payments directly. We give you a dedicated booking link to share with your guests, so you don't have to worry about chasing RSVPs or assigning tents.
Your Furnishing Options
The best part about a bell tent village is how flexible it is. You can choose the level of comfort that works for you and your guests:
Ysella's Fully Furnished tents come with comfy mattresses, duvets, pillows, and stylish touches like rugs and lanterns, giving your guests a cozy glamping experience.
The Honeymoon Bell Tent: This is your private sanctuary! It's often a bit bigger and comes with all the premium extras and beautiful decor, to make it feel extra special.
How many Tents can make a Village? We have up to 30 tents, each sleeping 5-persons. Hiring anything from 5-20 bell tents create a good party vibe. When you offer a bell tent village, you’re not just providing a place to sleep—you’re creating a central hub that makes your wedding weekend even more joyful and memorable for everyone.
Bell Tent Village Extras: what to include to make your event run smoothly
1. The Importance Signage:
Your wedding venue might be in a field, a rustic farm, or a hidden woodland. Without clear directions, it’s easy for guests to get lost. This is where well-thought-out signage becomes crucial.
Essential Navigation: Directional signs are a practical necessity. They guide guests from the car park to the ceremony space, the reception tent, and, of course, the bell tent village.
Adding to the Vibe: Beyond their practical use, flags and signs are a key part of your decor. Large, colourful event flags can mark the entrance to the village, while smaller signs can label specific areas like the "chill-out tent". They reinforce your wedding theme and add to that whimsical, festival-like atmosphere you're trying to create.
2. The Comfort Factor: Why On-Site Shower and Toilet Facilities are a Must
When your guests are staying in bell tents, they’re essentially camping—but it's a wedding, not a scout trip! Providing high-quality, clean toilet and shower facilities is not just a nice touch; it’s a non-negotiable part of being a thoughtful host.
Elevating the Experience: There's a wide range of portable facilities available, from standard mobile toilets to luxurious "glamping" units that feature proper flushing toilets, hot running water, and elegant decor.
In short, while the bell tents themselves are the star of the show, it's the supporting cast—the flags, signs, and excellent facilities—that ensures your wedding village is not just beautiful, but also a practical and thoroughly enjoyable experience for everyone.
