When we first published an article about the spectacular 12m x 30m stretch tent that had been commissioned by the Olive Rock Wedding and Function Venue, their tent had seen more than 100 setups in the space of four years.
Co-owner Nick and his team are a great testament to function venues that are considering investing in a stretch tent of their own, and how if you follow RHIs simple setup, dismantling, maintenance and storage guidelines, you’ll get a return on your investment that far exceeds your expectations.
Eighteen months later and a further 30 setups since we last paid Olive Rock a visit, we got the call from Nick who thought it was time to retire the old girl from matrimonial duties. He was looking to invest in a brand-new tent for the 2017/18 South African wedding season, using the old tent to provide cover on other areas of the farm.
We tweaked the initial design and changed the colour from chino to platinum-grey. The tent has since been delivered and rigged, just in time for the coming season.
When we asked Nick why he opted for an RHI stretch tent the second time around, his response was on par with that of our other partners around the world.
