Customer Reviews

“Provided an excellent service.”

Everyone just absolutely loved the Tipis and we had loads of lovely comments from our guests. Thomas was very easy to work with and provided an excellent service. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Fjell to anyone. Just fabulous 10/10. Thanks!

- John Lowes

“I can’t recommend them enough! Great…”

Thomas, Pete & their team were absolutely incredible from the start of our wedding planning to after our wedding. Their customer service and attention to detail made the whole process wonderful - I can’t recommend them enough! Great company!

- Jessica Manley (Keighley)

“They were incredibly accommodating.”

They were incredibly accommodating of our numerous change requests leading up to the big day and more than happy to offer advice. When the time came to set it up, they were considerate of the fact we had a million other things to get done, so simply asked us if we were happy with where they were going to put it then cracked on and got it done. They stayed late to get it done and it turned out stunning, exactly how we wanted. When it came to take it down, again they just got the job done, no fuss.

- Warwick Ashburner

“They were a pleasure to do business…”

Thomas and his team helped make our day so special. The tipi was outstanding, clean and great value. The accessories and decorations were of amazing quality. Thomas and his team were there to talk us through every aspect from ordering the tipi, showing us how to use it along with heating etc, to the final tidying up. They were a pleasure to do business with.

- Paul Todd

“Really knowledgeable local company.”

Really knowledgeable local company. Were excellent at liaising with other local suppliers and negotiating for us. Any little thing you wanted to tweek they did for us without issue (and there was a lot). Beautiful set up, I didn't have to get involved at all left them to it.

- Jennifer Litwinenko-Jones (Mills)

“Friendly, professional and…”

I have used Fjell for my own wedding and for other events that I have been involved with over the past 4 years. They are always incredibly friendly, professional and accommodating and I can not find fault in the product and service that they provide.

- David Boyle

“I would recommend to all.”

I contacted Fjell as their website was the most professional I had looked at. My venue wasn’t ideal for a tipi with difficult access. Fjell had done it before and talked me through all the obstacles and challenges, and made me feel confident that they knew what to do. We had limited time for set up and they were very well prepared and professional and got the tipi up in time, even accommodating my request to get 1 side done first so the florist could get started early. I would recommend to all.

- Emily Nash (Wren)

“The team at Fjell were amazing.”

The team at Fjell were amazing from start to finish. They set the Tipis up the best way for us and the venue, and didn't limit us in any way. We added extra Tipis nearer to the event, as well as accessories etc and Fjell accommodated all our requests. The team who put the Tipis up and down were lovely, very friendly but also very aware that we were setting other stuff up at the venue at the same time, so they worked around us. Thomas and his dad were very friendly, easy going and professional.

- Alexandra Burn (Pegg)

“Thomas and the entire team were…”

Thomas and the entire team were faultless. They responded immediately to all our requests and gave us expert advice on all aspects of our wedding. They were exceptionally considerate in the walled garden to avoid any damage to the flower beds. The tipi created the perfect atmosphere and exceeded all our expectations.

-

“I really liked that they are a small…”

The team at Fjell event Tipis always got back to me, they were so helpful, if I asked a question or wanted their advise they would always give good suggestions based on their experience. I really liked that they are a small family business. They arrived earlier than expected which was good for me because I had more time to organise things. There was no fuss, they arrived and erected the tipis and left, always keeping me informed. The tipis looked beautiful, I could not have been more pleased.

- Megan Park (Pugh)

“Nothing was too much trouble.”

Thomas and team were a pleasure to deal with throughout the process, they made all the planning easy, nothing was too much trouble, they were more than happy to come visit the location a few times to discuss all the plans. They were very efficient to setup, leaving no mess and left the site in the same way. Their tipis are beautiful and were the focus point of our wedding, we also had them the next day for a barbecue which was perfect.

- Sarah Cranston

“9/10 flexibility of marquee options.”

9/10 flexibility of marquee options. Options for tipi layout weren't really discussed but we were happy with the final layout. 9/10 communication. Response to emails was occassionally a little slow.

- Beth Gaston (Salter)

“Fell were a fantastic company to work…”

Fjell were a fantastic company to work with. They were very easy to communicate with before and after the wedding. The Tipis were in immaculate condition and put up in plenty of time. We attended open days which made us excited and gave us ideas for our day. All of the team are friendly and very fair. Our wedding day ended up being very sunny and we didn't need a front panel to the Tipis and they have refunded us for this. Our day was magical and Fjell played a big part in this. Thank you so much.

- Lyndsey Vivek (Reid)

“The Fjell team were incredible.”

The Fjell team were incredible. They were friendly and helpful at all times- even when dealing with a demanding bride. They built our perfect wedding venue in the scorching heat wave and it was beyond perfect.

- Katie Banks (Kelsall)

“The tipis looked absolutely beautiful.”

From initial booking to site visits and final set-up and take-down, Fjell made sure it all went smoothly. The tipis looked absolutely beautiful and really made our wedding day; our guests were so impressed, too. We'd recommend Fjell to anyone in the north west looking for tipis for their special occasion.

- Lora Christy

“From beginning to end it was a great…”

From beginning to end it was a great experience! Communication was excellent both email and phone calls. Fjell Tipis did everything we asked and more, they even offered us an upgrade and went above and beyond! Everyone loved our Tipis wedding experience.

- Lindsay Fenton (Mackenzie)

“Gave us complete peace of mind”

Thomas has been fantastic from the very beginning and throughout. He was able to provide extensive information about the products and gave us complete peace of mind. The company on a whole is excellent and provided the perfect tipee setup for our countryside wedding. I highly recommend this company for any sort of event as they are so flexible and professional with their work ethic.

Why did you book? We wanted an outside venue for our countryside wedding and the tipees provided the perfect rustic feel. They are known through our area for their product and after going to see a few of their current customers and two open days we had complete peace of mind that they would be the perfect company to fulfil our requirements.

- Sara Garratt - Wedding Industry Awards 2018

“Excellent in every way!”

Excellent in every way!

Why did you book? Local and helpful

- Andrew Ford

“We could not have had a better supplier.”

We could not have had a better supplier. From our initial meetings with Fjell right up to the Big Day they were helpful, informative and easy to speak to.
All arrangements were followed seamlessly and Thomas was very flexible to our needs and the needs of the venue in terms of delivery and set-up. We made many some to our original booking (extra lights, matting etc) which was organised quickly and easily. The tipi looked fabulous and really made our
day!

Why did you book? Local supplier with really good reviews, great first impression of both the company and the product.

- Jessica Mitchell

“Fjell were brilliant from start to…”

Thomas and the team at Fjell were brilliant from start to finish! We had a wonderful wedding day, and the tipis provided the perfect setting for our party. Fjell were helpful & knowledgeable about all aspects of the event, over and above just the tipis, helping us to source and co-ordinate power and toilets, and liaising with the venue staff to ensure everything ran smoothly before & during the big day! We were kindly invited to their open day to further put us at ease, and get us excited too!!

Why did you book? From the very first phone call, it was clear Fjell were eager to provide the best possible service. They took the time to talk us through all the options and things to consider before we actually put down the deposit, which was reassuring. Should also mention they were flexible and accommodating with last minute add-ons and changes we required.

- Iain Mullan

“Nothing was too much trouble for Pete…”

They truly made our wedding day perfect. Nothing was too much trouble for Pete and the guys, they worked their socks off on site, in the pouring rain erecting the tipis and we couldn't have wished for a better team to help us with our special day. We would recommend them to anyone! All our guests remarked how great the tipis were, and our friends still speak of it as "the best wedding they have ever been to" and this was thanks to the fjell team for helping us with the reception venue. Thanks!

Why did you book? We wanted something different to a traditional marquee and went along to one of the wedding open days they held. After meeting with the team, we knew it was just what we were looking for, and we don't regret the decision whatsoever.

- Helen Fowler

“Just what we wanted, rustic but smart!”

We had 3 Tipi's put up in the beautiful village of Lorton near Cockermouth for our wedding in July this year.

Why did you book? We wanted something different to the norm. Fjell Event Tipis offered just what we wanted, rustic but smart!

- Ellen Irlam

“Cosy, comfy and exactly what we wanted.”

Absolutely made our wedding! It gave the extra room we needed and let our evening party carry on as long as we wanted. Cosy, comfy and exactly what we wanted. Everyone loved it, what a fantastic idea. The FJELL team were Easy to work with and so flexible and understanding of our needs. Would recommend to anyone who was thinking about Tipi.

Why did you book? We love the outdoors and wanted a relaxed and cosy vibe for our guests in get great outdoors with a fire. FJELL was the perfect option and delivered everything we could have hoped for. They made it extra special!

- Vicky Higginson

“Wonderful from beginning to end”

Fjell Tipis were wonderful from beginning to end. They were very communicative, open and honest, friendly and efficient. We really enjoyed working with them and would recommend anyone else to do so too.

Why did you book? We booked as their web presence was good, they had good reviews and were friendly on the phone

- Alexander Gordon

“Their experience was a massive help”

Right from the beginning, when we looked at the Fjell Tipis we were drawn to them. Fjell invited us to an event on the morning they were dismantling a Tipi, and it provided us with so much more understanding on how it would work for our wedding. We then attended an opening event in the The Lake District, as much as the superb thought of a Tipi wedding, it was the personalities and character of the Fjell staff/owners that made it an easy decision to go
with Fjell Tipi.

Why did you book? We could see that Fjell had a real team ethos in erecting and dismantling the Tipi tents, and that give us great confidence that our Tipi styled wedding was in safe hands. We hoped that the Tipi would be erected the day before to allow our guests to experience an night before the wedding in the Tipi, and Fjell were more than willing to make sure of this, they were way ahead of us in their preparation! Fjell had a real family business ethos, and that attracted me and my wife as we're very family focused, and that went a long way to us booking with Fjell. Everything just worked without worry or hassle, Fjell's interfacing with local business such as catering companies was superb, they offered so many suggestions. After all, they've done this many times and their experience was a massive help to us, and more importantly, we listened to their experienced views on what would work and not work. In the end webooked Fjell and we would recommend to anyone, our day was amazing, and the Tipis even survived 100% precep of rain for 12 hours on the Friday! The guests did not care, the Tipi tent heater even had to be turned down, we were that warm!

-

“Provided the wow factor”

Fjell Tipis met with us and explained all the options clearly, they were flexible and provided the wow factor we had hoped for. Thanks to the entire team.

Why did you book? Thomas & Pete put the work in, during the prep they provided everything we asked for and are very personable.

-

“I would recommend them to anyone!”

The whole team at Fjell Events were so helpful and friendly, nothing seemed too much of an ask!! Responses and queries (even when not relating specially to the tipi) were responded to so quickly and everyone commented on the tipi and how friendly the team were! They made the whole organising experience very stress free by liaising with the other suppliers and we really enjoyed planning our day with them! I would recommend them to anyone!

Why did you book? They were really welcoming on there open day and the tipis looked beautiful!

-

“Exactly what we were looking for”

Fjell Event Tipis provided an excellent, friendly, professional service right from the first contact, through to the site visit, erection & de-rigging of the tipis. All the staff were very helpful and worked long hours to ensure everything was finished on the dates they promised. We would definitely recommend them to others. The tipis were erected on a field used for keeping sheep and the site was left with little marking and no rubbish which allowed the animals back to grazing immediately.
Why did you book?
We booked because we visited an open day that the company held in Langdale and it was exactly what we were looking for.

- Les Knibbs

“Above and beyond our expectations”

The Fjell team went above and beyond our expectations. Their service and communication from our initial inquiry to the take down after the wedding was excellent - so professional. They were extremely flexible allowing us to add/remove items during the quotation phase and onsite during set up. We had our reception in a field with difficult access issues and demanding land owners and it didn't faze them. They were punctual, polite and friendly. We owe our whole special day to them - thank you.

Why did you book? We booked because they responded extremely fast to our inquiry with an excellent quote. Their website was appealing and showed off the potential of the
tipis. It was so informative and also had a link to photos from actual weddings they had done so we could imagine how our day could be. They also had a large accessory hire list which was helpful for those finishing touches. They are a family run business based in the heart of the Lake District. As they were local to our chosen area they had a lot of local knowledge of the Lake District, including suppliers we could use. The icing on the cake was they allowed us to have the tipi's for an additional day so we could have an informal, chill out, wedding hangover day - after the wedding. They also came out on a very cold November morning for a site survey and put the landowners mind at rest regarding set up etc. This was again went above and beyond.

- David Southern

“An outstanding service from start to…”

We visited a promotion day for Fjell Tipis at Ullswater in October 2016. The appearance of their tipis on the site was very impressive and we were surprised by the ingenious use of the internal space. We wanted a structure which was interesting but also a practical solution to an outdoor celebration. We felt that there was real scope to develop ideas for attractive decorations using the tipi structure as presented by Fjell Tipis. They provided an outstanding service from start to finish.

Why did you book? Our impression of Fjell Tipis was favourable from the start and as we walked round and discussed our event with the staff, it only got better. Everything as explained carefully and methodically and inspired us with great confidence. There was no pressure from the firm but it became clear that we were dealing with a professional, well organised team which would deliver the first class service we were looking for.

- Harriet Pearson-Oliver

“I recommend them strongly to anyone”

Friendly, efficient, professional, value for money. I recommend them strongly to anyone.

Why did you book? From the first contact we got a great feeling from their team

- Byron Tyson

“We wouldn't change a thing.”

Wishing Fjell Event Tipis the best of luck with the wedding industry awards and for the future! Thank you for all your hard work in the lead up to our big day, we loved every second and if we were to do it all again we wouldn't change a thing. The guests loved the tipis and the suspense as to how they were going to look in the build up to the wedding caused great conversation and anticipation. Thanks again and we have our fingers crossed for you!

Why did you book?We booked Fjell Event Tipis for our wedding at my parent's farm, they were easy to deal with, great at providing advice and reasonably priced. The tipis looked incredible against the countryside landscape and the fire pit kept the guests warm well into the night. We booked Fjell as they were a local family based firm, communication was with the family direct and they were happy to visit our site on several occasions. Team work makes the dream work!!

- Janet Holmes

“Everything we hoped for and more”

The tipis we hired for our wedding were everything we hoped for and more. We visited the sight on the day they were setting up and the team were very helpful in letting us know everything we needed to know about how to working lighting/fire pits etc and answered any questions we had. The tipis created such a beautiful and special atmosphere on the day there is nothing we would of changed about them.

Why did you book? We booked after attending an open day event they were hosting. Once we had seen the tipis set up and knew exactly what we would be getting we knew there was nothing else we could of booked for our wedding day other than those.

- Alice Young

“Friendly, Reliable and Professional”

Planning your wedding is major undertaking, doing this from another country, the Netherlands could have been problematic but for us it was not. We wanted a lakeside event in a Tipis and having looked on line chose Fjell Tipis because we could have what we wanted rather than what a company wanted to offer us and liked the positive feedback. The whole process was seamless from the first enquiry through to event. The words to best describe Fjell Tipis are Friendly Reliable and Professional.

Why did you book? My wife is a great lover of the Lakes, we visited many times during our courtship. She often said how she would love to have a tipis by a lake if we ever got married. I spoke with Thomas at Fjell Tipis to see what they could offer and was so impressed by his approach, lots of helpful advice no hard sell. Our event was tailor made to suit what we wanted. Cannot speak more highly of this company.

- Andrew Johnson

“Featured on wedding awards”

The team at Fjell have excellent customer service. They were extremely helpful and a pleasure to deal with. They are exceptional at answering questionsand helping with layout. They met up with us to show us how the tipi worked and work like clockwork with the other suppliers. The tipi looked absolutely stunning in the grounds of lingholm and was a big hit with the guests.

Why did you book?We found them on Google easily and they were recommended to us by Lingholm. The fact they had been featured on wedding awards cemented our decision.

- Rebecca Grace

“A wonderful bunch. THANK YOU!!”

We required two tipis. One at a very remote, random location that was identified via GPS coordinates. Thomas & Pete were not phased by this. They accomodated all requests & were thorough in their consultation. Each tipi is a blank canvas & although we had a theme both of ours looked so different on the day. It made our ceremony & reception memorable & unique. The Fjell team liaised with the reception venue owners seamlessly. Fjell also have an enviable collection of Landrover Defenders! :)

Why did you book?We had contacted four different companies in October last year. Fjell got back to us promptly & were efficient. Thomas was genuine & knowledgeable without being pushy. We liked the fact that they are a family business & clearly really care about the service they provide. Their tipis are beautiful. Both of our tipis on our day were breathtaking & they made our wedding. Any concerns were dealt with quickly. All of the construction staff were polite & overall we think they are all a wonderful bunch. THANK YOU!!

- Alice Martha Yates

“Our dream wedding come true”

Fjell Tipi were fantastic throughout our whole wedding planning they couldn't do enough for us when we wanted to add things to our tipi or change things
nothing was too much trouble for them there customer service was excellent and they are all such lovely people to deal with. They made our wedding
totally amazing I would recommend them to anyone. The service they provide and the tipis and all the extra is top of the range products and just looks
amazing they made our dream wedding come true.

Why did you book? When we started planning our wedding we viewed a lot of hotels that provided weddings but when I saw an advert for an open weekend for Fjell Tipi so decided to go and have a look as soon as I walked in the Tipis at the open weekend I said to my partner we are having these they are amazing (I could of cried I was that happy) in fact I did when they were put up for our wedding so after speaking to Thomas and Pete at the open day they are such lovely people we got a really good feel about the company and that it was a family business filled in some details for them to give us a quote and it went from there. all it all the service and Tipis there offer were amazing and the excellent customer services made us more confident in booking with Fjell Tipis.

- Natalie Woodburn

“They were totally fantastic”

It was perfect for our wedding. Such a lovely setting and nice people. I just wish they came to put the sides up when it was sunny but other than that they were totally fantastic.

Why did you book?The tents are so beautiful!!

“Could not have asked for more from…”

Thomas and all at Fjell made our wedding the tipi went up in lightening speed and looked fantastic in our field. Thomas was so patient with my ever changing ideas and itinerary and provided helpful advice and suggestions throughout. He also recommended other suppliers who were brilliant. It was such a help when my husband and I live 200 miles away to have someone local to our wedding venue. We literally could not have asked for more from Fjell!

Why did you book? We were torn between a marquee and tipi and went with tipi based on the potential strong winds in our Lake District valley and the extra sturdiness of tipis over a marquee. As we lived in London and couldn’t attend the open day, Fjell invited us to watch the tipis going up at a public event and we were sold on their professionalness and willing to help as well as such high quality products.

- Laura Hamilton

“Impressive tipis with a friendly and…”

Impressive tipis with a friendly and helpful service from initial enquiry to wedding day. Why did you book? Having been to a wedding where they were used.

- Megan Pattinson

“We absolutely fell in love with the…”

I had a dream........ & from the moment we met Thomas & family I knew it was going to be a reality! I had never been in a tipi before & Fjell had advertised an open day at Ulswater yacht club, I asked my 'now' Husband if he wanted to come & take a look, his exact words on the way down in the car "Emma we are not making any decisions today & I've not brought any money with me" In the time it took me to walk around the Tipi he had booked a site visit & agreed a deposit!!!!

Why did you book? We absolutely fell in love with the Tipis & Thomas made us feel so comfortable and confident about FJell we booked straight away. Our wedding was everything and more I'd dared to dream of & the feedback from our guests was of awe and amazement, every single guest said it was the best do they had been to in years! Well done team FJell we would recommend you in a heartbeat.

“I cannot rate Fjell Tipis high enough”

I cannot rate Fjell tipi's high enough. Our reception was amazing the tipis looked great. It was all erected within hours giving us more time to decorate. And they even gave us an extra day before they took it down so myself and my husband didn't have to get up at the crack of dawn to get everything out.

They were perfect and their customer service is great. We were in constant contact with them and they catered to all our needs. If I have a chance to usethem again I will without a doubt!!!!!!!!

Why did you book? Myself and my husband didn't want a reception like everybody else. We like to be different. It was a venue that was unique and we could decorate how we wanted it. We didn't tell many people we were having tipi's and they all loved the surprise. I wish we could of kept the tipi's they really were amazing. I'll never forget them and the company and team.

- Felicity Mcilveen

“Our wedding was perfect”

Our wedding was perfect and we have to thank fjell tipis for that..... they did an outstanding job and we can't thank them enough. All our friends and family absolutely loved the tipis.

Why did you book? Because I wanted a country theme and the tipis fitted the theme. Fjell were very helpful without being pushy, and even managed to supply the tipis when
we had to change the date.

- Susan Windle

“Pete, Thomas and all the team were great”

"Pete, Thomas and all the team were great and ensured we had everything we needed. They also ensured we had contact details for any issues that we may have had during the event. Booking was simple and easy to organise the layout of the tipi. They give you ample time to decorate just how you like. Knowing that our money would be going to a local company meant a great deal to us. Absolutely great."

- Shelley Wilkinson

“All the guys were fantastic”

"All the guys at Fjell Event Tipis were fantastic to deal with. Very helpful and comprehensive with any questions we had. Particularly on the run up to the big day, everything went so smoothly and so quickly from their end, it meant we had a lot of time to decorate it in our way as well.”

- Felicity Wattam

“Amazed with the design, quality and…”

“Overall, Fjell Event Tipis were a great Tipi provider and helped to ensure we had a very successful wedding. They were extremely helpful and set up/take down service was fantastic. They were flexible with timing around our schedule. All of our guests were amazed at the design and quality of the Tipi furnishings and accessories. They were considerably cheaper than competitors and a friendly, family run business”

- Janine Blincow

“”A really great company“”

“Everybody loved the tipi we had at our wedding. It was lovely to have something with such a great atmosphere rather than a clinical white marquee. Fjell were easy to communicate with and quick to reply to any queries. They were very flexible with allowing us to have the tipi in advance of the blessing day which was ideal for set up. Overall a really great company.”

- Olivia Main

“VIP treatment”

"Lovely family run business who were patient with all of our many questions, as well as going above and beyond on the lead up communicating with us about the weather and what that would mean for us. They gave us a competitive quote which beat the competition, and their open day was fantastic - gave my gran VIP treatment by the lake!"

Sally McAllister -

“They were always available for a chat,…”

"The team at Fjell Event Tipis (Thomas particularly) were amazing. Their assistance went beyond the tipis, helping us find a location and arranging other services (e.g. generator). They were always available for a chat, and we felt very cared for.”

- Mikey Oldfield

“Their professionalism was second to none”

“I have worked in the events industry for years so can have a high standard, however, Fjell’s approach was so personal and their professionalism on the days was second to none.”

- Andy Skirrow

“Great value for money”

"The team were so helpful and accommodating. They made our day stress free. The beautiful tipi was amazing and wowed our guests as well as being great value for money. Professionally put together while taking what we wanted into consideration. Throughout the run up to the day they were swift, friendly and communication was brilliant which made me feel reassured and all together faultless. The tipi really was something else and made our day so special”

- Kate Bell - Wedding Industry Awards 2017

“Thomas was a massive help to us”

“We wanted a unique wedding venue that was unique to our personality, that is what we got. Even though the weather was very wet the day we got married, we were very warm and cosy in our tipi. Everyone was shocked at how beautiful they were and that they were more than just a tent in a field, which I think some people thought when they heard we were getting married in a field. Thomas was a massive help to us, updating our order with more tables and chairs, and making it as stress free as he could. We liked that it is a local business with good prices for their tipis.”

- Caz Evans

“It was my dream wedding, thanks again to…”

“We could not have been happier with the level of care and professionalism we received from Fjell. It was my dream wedding and cannot thank the team enough. The tipis looked incredible and it was everything and more that I wished for, they were extremely flexible with what we could have and were great with my millions of questions! Thanks again to everyone.”

- Anna Mcleod - Wedding Industry Awards 2017

“”Smooth and easy to deal with“”

“Fjell were excellent at responding to all our requests, when we sent enquries to a number of vendor’s, Fjell came back quickly, with a professional approach, were easy to deal with and nothing seemed too much trouble for them and were extremely helpful in helping us find alternative suppliers for lighting, crockery, generators and helped source items for inside the tipi that they didn’t supply. They gave us confidence and came to do two site visits prior to the event. We also changed our mind a fair few times along the way and Fjell had no problems with changing our quotation and accommodating our requests. Smooth, easy to deal with, perfect suppliers.”

- Danielle Barrow

“Incredibly Helpful”

“Fjell Tipis were incredibly helpful in helping us to find a layout which worked for us, in addition to this they also helped us source an additional tipi from another supplier to help with our size dilemma”

- Andrea Mickel

“We were blown away by the final finish”

“We hired a giant tipi and furniture for our wedding in Dumfries. Nervous at first of our wee wedding in the garden, the team at Fjell events instantly put our minds at rest. Thomas came out and assessed the garden and talked us through all our options. We also then attended their open day so we could see the tipi in the flesh before the big day. On our set-up day, the team were fantastic and had the tipi up in no time. We were blown away by the final finish, the lights and furniture. Fjell are a great, professional but friendly company.”

- Emily Grainger

“The Tipis were spectacular and the team…”

“The tipis provided by Fjell Event Tipis were spectacular!! They contributed an extra special feel to our ‘at home’ wedding and fitted the overall relaxed vibe perfectly! The team erecting and dissembling the tipis were fast, efficient and very professional. Any requests by us for changes made at short notice were dealt with and actioned without problem. The different options available, from this company, for tent combination and layout as well as the additional extras was vast and suited our wants and needs. When we visited the tipis for open days we were overwhelmed by how fantastic they looked inside and what an impact they made from the outside. We would highly recommend Fjell Event Tipis.”

- Eliza Lunec

“The Tipi was breathtaking”

“The whole team did a great job from start to finish and offered a great service. The Tipi was breath taking and everyone that attended said they had never seen a venue as nice, it was a great day.”

- John Howie

“”Very impressed by their friendly…”

“Fjell were friendly, helpful, and flexible throughout the process of planning our wedding and we were very impressed by their friendly professionalism. The week of our wedding they erected the tipi quickly and coordinated with the farm owner without having to be directed or guided by us. On the wedding weekend, Fjell took the time to show us how to use the generators, gave us options and advice on the final set up of the tipi. They took a lot of the stress and worry out of the wedding planning with their excellent service.”

- Andrew Pye

“”Quick, efficient and professional“”

“I cannot praise these guys highly enough; they stepped into the breach when our original supplier let us down, and our big day turned out all the better for it! Their prices were a lot less expensive than we would have otherwise imagined. Everything was designed around us, and we weren’t maneuvered into buying / ordering anything we didn’t want or need. The team were extremely helpful and offered some very practical advice and kept us informed of progress at every stage of the operation. The entire team were superb; quick, efficient and very professional throughout.”

- David Coomer

“”Very helpful staff and a beautiful…”

“We wanted an outside wedding local to where we live, this was a Fantastic company, very helpful staff and a beautiful product. Made our wedding feel really special and felt unique. It was nice to have a space that felt your own.”

- Sarah Pearce

“"The guys at Fjell were extremely…”

“The Tipi made our wedding! The guys at Fjell were extremely accommodating to our requirements and also great with suggestions. The whole process was flawless from booking, to the day of our wedding. They explained everything really well upon our initial meeting, gave us lots of options and suggestions, their pricing was competitive and we felt totally confident in their ability to deliver, and they did. Even with winds of 45mph forecast leading up to the wedding, Fjell kept me calm promising me everything would be ok, and it was! Everyone was blown away with our Tipi wedding, saying it was the ’Best Wedding’ they had ever been to. Fjell thoroughly deserve to win this award”

““From start to finish Thomas and Fjell…”

“From start to finish Thomas and Fjell Event Tipis were fantastic to deal with and really made our wedding amazing. Their communication was great and the whole process was made stress free which was a welcome relief when organising the rest of the wedding was quite stressful! The tipis went up without problems and looked beautiful, they were also a local company and knew the venue. They were willing to help and make the wedding stress free and not just trying to make more money out of us. We were all amazed how fantastic they looked and it honestly contributed to our guests saying it was the most amazing wedding they’ve ever been to.”

“"They provided everything and more“”

“We found Thomas and his team to be very professional and friendly. We met with Thomas for a site review a few months before the wedding and again the week leading up to the wedding. The team provided everything we asked for and more! All the guests loved the Tipis and I would recommend using the company to anyone.”

- Megan Berry

“”Impeccable Service, I would highly…”

"We booked them because of their impeccable service and response times to emails and phone calls, they left us feeling confident we were able to put our trust in them for our dream wedding. They were absolutely fantastic, reassuring & always there to give advice, help, or ideas for our wedding, from email to phone calls to talking in person, we felt in safe hands and confident they could deliver, and they did, it was everything we could have dreamed of and more, I wish I could do it all over again I wouldn’t change a thing. I would highly recommended to anyone, they did everything possible even upgrading our heating as it unexpectedly snowed the day before our wedding to make sure everything was perfect, and it was, I can’t wait to have an excuse to book them again"

- Annabel Rhodes

“”Rapid Construction and Great…”

“Fantastic experience with the Garners and all of the Fjell team. Excellent communication with really helpful advice and input from them when selecting the setup. Rapid construction of the Tipis (in all four seasons), with flexibility with some later changes. They went out of their way to ensure everything ran smoothly, even some events out of their control. The entire day (ceremony and party into the small hours) was in these Tipis and a highlight for many of our guests.”

- Derek Smith

“”Amazing service, Amazing team, Amazing…”

“A fantastic team from start to finish. They couldn’t have done anything else for us. It took us quite a while to decide on a venue and they were helpful and supportive in suggestions and assistance liaising with them. Planning was stress free and very supportive. They filled us with confidence at every meeting and communication in the build-up to the day and ‘hand over’ of the tipis was very clear and a couple of last minute changes were ’no problem’. Amazing service and amazing team and quality.”

- Jane Macfarlane

“"Our guests kept saying they had never…”

“The tipi was the jewel in the crown for our wedding!!! It was just so so special. Thomas and Peter and his team were brilliant, everything was just perfect and all our guests kept saying "wow"!!! They had never seen anything quite so stunning!!! We liked the look of their website initially and then went to see them on one of their open days, they were lovely and nothing was a problem. They even helped us secure a venue when our first one double booked us!!!”

- Nikki Atkinson

“"Nothing was too much hassle, they've…”

“I cannot praise this company enough. I went to meet Thomas up in the lakes and after meeting a few other people in the tipi industry I knew straight away these were the guys. Thomas was such a pleasure to deal with and we felt he was a down to earth guy and easy to get on with. He was confident with what he was taking about, which other companies weren’t when I’d asked them questions. I knew that we could work with him and book Fjell without thinking twice. They advised me on how to have the tipis placed and also that it may get too cold if I had the side of the tipis open. (I’m glad I listened, they were right) They slogged their gutts out putting them up and taking them down. Nothing was too much hassle; they went through how to work the lighting and how to open the air vents if we needed to. I’ve never seen a team work as well together with such organisation. They’ve been a pleasure to work with, Thanks Fjell”

- Emily Kate Rothwell

“”Helpful, local, good ratings“”

“I found Fjell online and after getting various quotes from other companies I decided to go with Fjell as it was local so no delivery charge and also had good reviews. From booking to post wedding I found my queries and worries were quickly responded to and that Thomas had a very good understanding of the tipis etc. The tipis were erected a few days before the wedding and they looked absolutely fantastic. What a super company”

- Antonia Philp

“”The tipis were Fantastic“”

- Sarah-Kay Norman

“”it was the most unique wedding people…”

“Fjell were Unique for us. We were looking to do something different to the traditional Hotel wedding, we wanted something much less formal to a hotel, where guests could feel relaxed, at ease & enjoy themselves. Fjell Tipis were the perfect wedding venue for us. We found them very professional, polite & accommodated all our needs. Nothing was too much for them & we liked the fact that they were a down to earth family ran business.

We wanted a wedding festival theme out doors to reflect us as a couple and how we are as people & we think the tipis did this perfectly. We are laid back, outdoor people who don’t like to be surrounded by fuss. It was the best day we’ve ever had, we were inundated with thank you cards and phone calls for days, on how awesome our wedding was & that it’s the best, most different, Unique wedding people of all ages have ever been too. The company were fantastic, all the staff are very down to earth with a very friendly approach, nothing was too much for them. It’s great that Fjell set the Tipis up on the Tuesday before our wedding (we got married on the Saturday) enabling us plenty of time to decorate them to our taste and didn’t take them down until the Monday after allowing us plenty of time to take everything down again. I would most certainly recommend, Well done Fjell!!!!!!”

- Suzanne Hemingway McCracken

“”Efficient, Friendly and Professional“”

"Fjell were fantastic from start to finish. Efficient, friendly and professional. They were reasonably local and offered a fair price - the tipis looked great on the website too. Everyone was blown away by the tipis. We couldn’t have asked for a better company.”

- Hannah Burnett

“”First class from start to finish“”

"From start to finish Thomas and his family team were really personable, so flexible (as we had lots of changes and requests throughout!) with everything they offered and were really honest with suggestions for things we might need or they thought we wouldn’t. Cost was obviously at the higher end, but not unreasonable given the quality and uniqueness of the items they provide. They absolutely made our dream wedding come true and I can’t recommend them as people and a company highly enough!!!!!!!!!

Their clear, approachable and friendly attitude to everything gave us so much confidence and nothing was too much for them every time we asked for a change or something extra. Such a unique experience that Every one of our guests commented on how good it was. First class from start to finish!!"

- Kye Ettridge

“”It provided a special backdrop for our…”

“We used the tipi this summer for our wedding. It went up 2 days before the event. The tipis were delivered as arranged and erected quickly and efficiently. We saw a tipi set up for a wedding the year before and decided we would like them for our wedding. Many guests commented on how beautiful they looked and what a special backdrop they provided for our wedding.”

- Jesal Mehta

“”Brilliant service all round“”

“The team were fantastic. Communication from initial enquiries was prompt and friendly. They really helped us out by borrowing a tipi from another company as theirs were booked out and we needed an extra one. The run up to the event was very well managed and efficient. They were happy to help us out with some of the decorations and last minute changes of plans. Brilliant service all round. Good quote, friendly staff and we like to support local business.”

- Katherine Ord

“”Amazed from start to finish“”

“We were amazed by the service from start to finish, both Pete and Thomas made the process painless and contact was easy through email.

- Jon Potter

“"Professional and easy to deal with…”

“Fjell Event Tipis were fantastic vendors to deal with and I would highly recommend them for this award. We could not have found a more professional and easy to deal with company than Fjell Event Tipis. Not only were Fjell highly competitive on price vs. others, the team were also extremely knowledgeable, easy to communicate with and accommodating to our needs. Because of this we found Fjell to be the perfect vendor that we would/and have recommended to others post our amazing wedding day.”

- Peter Bell

“”They were professional and their…”

"Fjell Events were brilliant. We recieved a recommendation and then we liked the quality of the product and the knowledge and friendliness of the team when we met them on an open day. They linked in with other suppliers (e.g. toilets) so that we only had to manage one relationship, which made things so much easier. They were very professional and their product was lovely."

- Suzanne Brown

“"They were the best quote of all the…”

"Fjell made the process of organising our tipi easy. They were always easily contactable and ready to answer any of our questions. On the weekend they made sure the set up was as we wanted, and the tipis looked great! They provided the best quote of all the tipi suppliers we contacted."

- Dave Innes

“”They genuinely want what is best for…”

The Tipis Looked great on the website, and as soon as we got in touch they were beyond helpful, always replying quickly and giving us all the info we needed. We booked one of the fab chill out tipis from Fjell for the night before our wedding while we had a BBQ with friends and family. The atmosphere it created was amazing, so relaxed! It also acted as a place to continue the party on our wedding day! Peter, Thomas and the rest of the team were amazing from start to finish! They made suggestions and seemed to genuinely want what was best for our day, never pushing us to get more, just an absolute pleasure to work with! We hope our paths cross again! Everyone commented on how fab the tipi was.”

- Caitlin Turner

“Something different from a normal…”

“We wanted something different from a normal marquee and Fjell were very helpful with great service and communication. Everyone loved the Tipis and was a real talking point. It made our day extra special and different.”

- Kate Sowerby

“The service offered was top class...”

“Fantastic service from booking all the way through to de-rigging. Accommodated all requests as well as making suggestions on both style and practicalities. Visited after setup and before event to ensure everything was as we wanted. Would recommend to any other couples looking for a personalised approach from a hire company. The tipi’s and furnishings are all very high quality, and the service offered was top class too.”

- Howard Taylor

“Their product is definitely award…”

“We decided we wanted a Tipi for our Scottish wedding and when the local provider could not do our date we searched for a company that could. Fjell Event were happy to supply and we were delighted with the result! We utilised all the little extras that you can order also like glitter balls and fairy lights and the fire pit etc. The Tipis are amazing and made such an impact on the day. The team arrived and set up with super efficiency and were true professionals. Their product is definitely award winning.”

- Allison Bell

“Perfect place to host our wedding..”

“Fjell Tipis were absolutely fantastic from the first contact we had with them, right up to our wedding day. They were great at explaining all of the different options available, as well as any extras we wanted, in keeping with our budget. We loved the natural style of the tipis. Perfect for a laid-back wedding, with an outdoor vibe yet really cosy inside. All our guests loved the tipis too - with many saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to. It was the perfect place to host our wedding reception and made the day even more special. Perfect.”

- Alice Holmes

“”Fjell Tipis offer high quality products…”

“We couldn’t have asked for a friendlier, more organised and professional company to provide Tipis for our wedding reception. Thomas and Pete were on hand from day one to answer any queries and were able to communicate with the Lingholm Estate to organise set up etc. This really took the pressure off us and we felt very confident that everything was going to plan!

Fjell Event Tipis were able to offer high quality products and a large range of added extras to choose from which made our wedding even more unique. Our dream of getting married outdoors with such a stunning tipi was a reality. We would recommend wholeheartedly.”

“”The whole team bent over backwards to…”

“Everything went brilliantly and it was such a perfect day. Thomas was incredibly helpful right from the start and the whole team bent over backwards to ensure everything was ready for the big day. They are a local company that created a great first impression. They were also very reasonably priced and had an excellent reputation. Everyone commented on how amazing the tipis were, and we were really happy with how the wedding turned out. We wouldn’t change a thing!”

“”The variety of extras was a cut above…”

“Fjell was not the cheapest and was not close to the venue. But the communication was excellent I felt all questions were answers quickly and with patience. Thomas provided us with a high level of support which was much appreciated for such a special day. The variety of extras was a cut above the rest also. It was a truly magical wedding venue; the tipi tents are stunning and it provided the perfect venue for our rustic wedding.”

“”They went out their way to provide…”

“I couldn’t have asked for anything more from a tipi supplier. From initial contact Thomas from fjell tipis was approachable & informative. He continually answered my never-ending list of questions & always promptly gave me any information or recommendations asked for. Even when I asked for a different light set up to that offered, Thomas & his team went out their way to provide me with exactly what I dreamt of - fairy lights on every pole from top to bottom! It was beautiful!

I always wanted something slightly unusual from a wedding venue so the traditional marquee didn’t appeal. Fjell tipis provided exactly the type of venue that I was looking for in the right location. After attending an open day to view the tipis I simply knew I needed to book them! The price was reasonable & every effort was made to offer the dates & size of tipi needed. The blank interior of the tipi also appealed to me as it meant I could put my own mark on it & have my vision come to life.”
