East London notes on chairs
Plastic chairs go out by the hundred to Mdantsane, Duncan Village and Scenery Park for funerals and umgidi, and to church halls for services and choir competitions. Beach and garden weddings in Gonubie and Nahoon ask for Wimbledon chairs for the ceremony and Tiffany chairs inside, with folding chairs where the walk to the setting is long. Matric farewells at Vincent and Selborne schools often book gold Tiffany chairs.
East London: the events, the weather and the hire firms
Mdantsane alone keeps many East London hire firms busy, with funerals, umgidi homecomings, weddings and church gatherings booked weekend after weekend. Bhisho and Qonce add provincial government events, launches and imbizos that need marquees, stages and rows of conference chairs. On the coast, Nahoon, Gonubie and Beacon Bay host garden and beach weddings, and schools across Vincent and Selborne run sports days and matric farewells. Hire firms are based in the industrial areas around Wilsonia and Arcadia and in Mdantsane, and many also deliver inland and along the coast to rural villages, charging by distance. Coastal wind, summer rain and soft ground on village roads are the usual cautions, so mention access when you ask for a quote.
