I agree with the previous comment about go for a day tent rather than a gazebo. Far more sturdy and gives you more options.
We've got a Khyam quick-errect screen house. Definitely not cheap or light but an excellent piece of kit. I put it up on my own whilst hubby gets the water. Every time we use it we get enquiries and admiring glances. Can highly recommend it.
I have just used my vango family shelter and was pretty impressed that it stod up to some heavy rain and gusty winds that we had on thursday night. Seems to be simple lightwieght and easy to put up and down.

I bought a tarp from Blacks which came with two poles and guys to make a shelter. I think it was £!0 (I haven't used it yet though!).
If it's the same as the Millets one, it's not too bad. It's very tall and I think it's meant to go with a small dome or pop-up tent togive you a bit extra room. We use ours in the garden as a shelter for the kids to play under.
We use a Royal Dayroom. Had no probs with it in high winds. My friend had a Suncamp Dayroom and we put them togeather door to door to make a big one. It worked well!
We just use the Vango Adventure Tarp - even rigged it up at home from the balcony and had a successful BBQ in the rain last week... A couple of minutes to put up and even less time to take down. Only 2m by 3m approx but big enough to protect an oval table and 6 chairs...
