The cheesestand, a central decorative feature, created from stumps, bailes and cricket ball
Small details carried through the theme. Tables were named after cricket positions: here Bowler, Batsman and First slip.

Fifty not out. May the innings continue for many more!
Viewing the marquee from the house. Guests could proceed straight to the event.
The occasion was a 50th wedding anniversary.
The venue was a fair sized garden in West Sussex. The 40' by 80' frame marquee was attached to the house. Another 30' by 30' frame marquee was alongside, partitioned to serve both as a catering tent and a food service area.
The theme was cricket. The couple in question were both long time cricket fans and had originally met at a cricket match. Cricket wasn't merely a passion but also the source of romantic memories.
What is notable about this marquee is that the look was achieved affordably. Table names, a scoreboard, a cheese stand ingeniously contrived out of cricketing items... showing how, with thought and planning, it is possible to achieve a fun and meaningful theme on a tight budget.
