Structure & materials
What you need to know about your orangerie
The orangery tent evokes the great historic orangeries of French châteaux and formal gardens: a large pitched roof, a façade with French doors and glazed panels, a slim metal structure. It offers the brightness and look of a permanent building with the flexibility of a temporary installation. Its architectural appearance sets it apart immediately from the standard marquee and positions it as the go-to structure for upmarket outdoor receptions — château weddings, corporate galas, prestige dinners. On the budget side, the cost of hiring an orangery for a wedding depends on the size, the level of finish (flooring, chandeliers, drapes), the technical options (heating, air conditioning), the duration and the service area. As a guide, the ranges seen in 2026 for a turnkey service run between €6,000 and €10,000 excl. VAT for a medium size (100-150 guests) and between €12,000 and €25,000 excl. VAT for the large configurations (200-400 guests) — each quote is still drawn up bespoke after a site survey.
Materials & construction
- Roof in white PVC or polycarbonate panels depending on the model
- Façade: glazed French doors (white lacquered aluminium), PVC or glass panels
- Frame: aluminium or white lacquered galvanised steel
- Double-pitched ridge, height 4 to 6 m at the central ridge
- Options: underfloor heating, ventilation, blinds, internal partitions
For which event?
Prestige wedding on an estate
The orangery is the natural choice for weddings at a château, manor house or wine estate that want a structure to match the venue. Its architectural silhouette is recognisable in wedding photos: French doors, a double-pitched roof, soft natural light.
Cocktail & welcome drinks
In a partially open configuration, the sliding French doors create an indoor-outdoor flow ideal for the cocktail. Guests move freely between the garden and the orangery with no change in temperature.
Corporate gala
With carefully chosen furniture and architectural lighting, the orangery rivals a permanent reception hall visually. The result matches the upmarket standards expected by corporate guests.
Exhibition & private view
The soft natural light and the space free of any central pole make it an ideal exhibition area. Artworks, installations or prototypes benefit from constant natural light with no stray shadows.
What to plan for
- Ground: flat ground required (slope < 5%). Floating floor recommended for a premium finish and ground insulation.
- Access: a minimum façade opening of 3 m for furniture and flower deliveries.
- Setup time: 4 h to 1 day depending on size — longer than an opaque marquee owing to the glazing.
- Heating: glass transmits cold better than PVC canvas — provide a more powerful system in mid-season and winter.
- Lighting: natural light is the main asset. Supplement with LED lighting at the ridge for the evening.
FAQ
The cost of hiring an orangery is never a fixed list price: it depends on the size (from 60 to 400 guests), the level of finish (wooden flooring, chandeliers, drapes, floral decoration), the technical options (heating, air conditioning, lighting), the length of use and the site constraints (lorry access, distance, ground). As a guide, the ranges seen in 2026 run from €6,000 to €10,000 excl. VAT for a medium size (100-150 guests) to €12,000-25,000 excl. VAT for the large configurations (200-400 guests), delivery and setup included. Bespoke quote within 24 h.
The orangery has an opaque roof and side walls with French doors: it looks like an architectural building and offers better thermal comfort. The crystal tent is fully transparent (roof and walls): it offers a 360° panoramic view but poorer thermal insulation. For an estate wedding, the orangery evokes the "grand siècle"; the crystal tent plays on contemporary transparency.
The orangery has a more classic silhouette with its 19th-century-style pitched roof — it is the heritage choice that blends naturally into a château or a historic wine estate. The glass marquee reads as more contemporary with its slim black frame and full-glass walls: it suits estates with a modern aesthetic better. The budget is comparable; the choice comes down to the effect you are after.
Yes, with suitable heating. The semi-opaque roof reduces the greenhouse effect in summer and provides better insulation in winter than the crystal tent. Most configurations include an insulating floor. For winter weddings and end-of-year parties, the orangery is one of the best prestige/thermal-comfort compromises on the market.
Yes, the columns and crossbeams lend themselves well to foliage decoration. Coordinate with the florist on the type of fixings accepted on the lacquered metal structure.
Yes. All-inclusive quote (transport, setup, takedown) across France. Free quote within 24 h with the date, location and number of guests.
