Planning your own wedding is exciting, but if we’re honest, it can also feel like juggling a hundred tiny details at once. One thing couples often underestimate? Toilets. WET Hire is here to help!
We know it’s not the most glamorous part of your big day, but getting your wedding toilet hire right can make a huge difference to your guests’ experience. The good news is, it’s easier than you think when you know what to look for.
Why wedding toilet hire matters
Whether you’re hosting a countryside marquee wedding in Somerset or a rustic barn celebration near Bristol, chances are your venue won’t have enough facilities for your guests.
That’s where luxury wedding toilet hire comes in. It will:
• Keep queues short and guests happy
• Add a touch of comfort and style
• Support venues with limited facilities
• Keep winter weddings warm with heated units
• Be perfect for outdoor or at-home weddings
Luxury toilet hire isn’t just for large-scale, high-end events anymore either - smaller weddings benefit too.
Step 1: How many toilets per person for a wedding?
Your guest list is the biggest factor when planning wedding toilet hire.
As a general guide:
Up to 100 guests → 1+1 luxury toilet unit
Up to 150 guests → 2+1 luxury toilet unit/2+1 shepherd’s hut toilet
Up to 250 guests → 3+1 luxury toilet unit/3+1 shepherd’s hut toilet
Up to 400 guests → 4+2 luxury toilet unit/8-bay luxury toilet unit
If your wedding includes camping or lasts all day (and night!), you may need additional capacity.
Top tip: Although larger units cost more upfront, they reduce the need for servicing — which can help manage overall wedding toilet hire prices.
Step 2: Consider your venue space & layout
As you will know from your search for the perfect venue, they are not all created equal, especially outdoor ones.
Here’s what to think about:
• Available Space - luxury toilet trailers come in different sizes. If space is tight, compact units are ideal for smaller or more intimate weddings. Individual product descriptions for our luxury portable toilets have trailer specifications but we can advise you on this.
• Access points - some units have doors on one side, while others allow access from both sides — useful if your layout is tricky or space is limited. Again, we can help with this.
• Ground conditions - flat, stable ground is best. If you’re unsure, we can advise.
Step 3: Think about water & waste
Luxury units aren’t just “plug and play” — they need water and waste capacity.
• Larger units = bigger fresh water and waste tanks
• Camping weddings = higher water usage
• Servicing vehicles need access within ~25 metres if emptying is required
But, again, we’ll help you figure all this out so there are no surprises on the day.
Step 4: Choose quality (your guests will notice!)
Just like wedding venues, not all portable toilets are created equal.
With luxury wedding toilet hire from Wight Event Toilets, your guests can expect:
• Flushing toilets
• Running water
• Stylish interiors with high-end finishes
• Lighting and mirrors
• Heating for colder months
• Indulgent toiletries
At WET Hire, our units are modern, spotless, and regularly updated — because your wedding deserves better than basic festival/construction site loos. Choose from polished white units, wood-effect wrapped units or shepherd’s hut units with a dark grey, corrugated cladding.
Step 5: Understand luxury toilet hire prices
Let’s talk about cost — because we know it matters.
Wedding toilet hire prices can vary depending on:
• Guest numbers
• Type and size of unit
• Length of hire
• Location
At Wight Event Toilets, we know that every event is different, with its own unique set of requirements and that is why we provide every client with a bespoke tailored quote based on your plans — we’ll keep it simple and transparent. Our pricing page gives an overview of current prices and individual product descriptions include a ‘price from’. Our guide to portable toilet hire cost also explains exactly what you’ll get for your money.
Step 6: The booking process – nice and easy!

• Think about accessibility for all guests – the 4+1 luxury toilet with disabled bay or the single luxury disabled toilet can help with this
