Mudway Workman was founded in 1953 by Edward John Mudway, who used his knowledge as a sailmaker in the Royal Navy to manufacture marquees by hand. In 1972 the company was handed down to his son Graham who had been in the business since leaving school. Paul Workman joined the company in the early 1980s after leaving University and a partnership was formed five years later.
Graham's son Matthew joined the business after leaving college in 1993. Since the early days of hand-stitched canvas, the marquee industry has advanced. Mudway Workman's commitment to constant investment in new equipment and technology over the years means they can offer a full range of services from classic traditional marquees to contemporary clearspan structures.

Services
If you are looking for a more contemporary space in which to hold your event the clearspan aluminium framed marquee would be the preferred option. Using leading edge design and materials externally they create the current day feel. However the main feature would be site flexibility. Incorporated with a flooring system, areas that clients considered unthinkable become the chosen position.
Mudway Workman offer assistance at every stage of the process. Once the decision has been made on the correct structure for your event attention can be focused on the many other products on offer in order for your to run in seamless fashion. This includes everything from the interior look to the supply of lighting, power, refrigeration and toilet facilities.
Our wedding marquees are very flexible and it is easy to create shapes that are long, square, L-shaped; and by clever use of lining, flooring and lighting you can create you own theme, be it modern, romantic or classical.
Unlike a fixed location such as a hotel where customising the decoration and 'feel' of your wedding may prove difficult, at Mudway Workman Wedding Marquee hire we like give our future bride and groom plenty of opportunity to stamp their own style into an an event in any way they choose.

An unusual quirk of our involvement in the wedding day process is that customers contact us at the very start, regularly speak to us all the way up to the big day and more often than not send us a thank you or come and say hello after the event. But we so rarely get to see the day itself.
While erecting the wedding marquee is undoubtedly very high on the priority list those extra touches than come afterwards are what define a wedding and turn our canvas into a masterpiece.Luckily many of our customers weddings are covered by professional bloggers, photographers and magazines so we at least get a chance to see what went on during the day.

A marquee erected at his parents home in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, was the perfect location for Joe & Joanna Hanks. They wanted something with open space and an opportunity to stamp their own feel to the wedding reception. Located in a field behind Joe's parent's house near the Racecourse in Cheltenham we erected a 25m x.

We used Mudway Workman for our marquee wedding in Somerset on the recommendation of Sweet & Pretty Weddings and Events. Paul and his team were brilliant from start to finish. Paul was great at liaising with the venue to ensure that the power/generator requirements were installed and his team were excellent at setting up and taking down the marquee. The caretaker at the venue was very impressed with how tidy and efficient they all were.
The marquee was great quality and looked amazing. I would 100% recommend Mudway!

We used Mudway Workman for our Marquee wedding reception near Oxford. They were both helpful and flexible in the run up to the day, always willing to answer our queries and even accommodating a number of changes in the week before the event.
The crew did a great job of setting up in the days running up to our wedding and the marquee looked fantastic for our reception, so a huge thanks for contributing to our big day.
A really professional job and would highly recommend.

Dear Mudway Marquees,
Thank you so so much for our wedding marquee. It is all I could have every dreamed of, the marquee suited the venue and Matt really listened to what we wanted and designed the perfect set up to accommodate our ideas. The chinese hat gave a welcome entrance away from the table area and the starry lit ceiling was perfect over… the black and white dance floor for the party atmosphere at the end of the evening.
The hessian flooring was a late request and Graham was happy to change this and it made the whole marquee and venue fit together.
Thank you for being so easy to
