Bloemfontein notes on chairs
Plastic chairs in white and black serve funerals and church services in Mangaung, Heidedal and Botshabelo, where a family may book several hundred at a time. Garden weddings in Langenhoven Park and Bainsvlei favour Wimbledon chairs for the ceremony and gold or white Tiffany chairs for dinner. The big schools hire folding chairs for sports days, and student functions near the university often add bar stools and ghost chairs.
Bloemfontein: the events, the weather and the hire firms
Bloemfontein has the full range of event hire in one city. The university and the big old schools need marquees and chairs for graduations, reunions, prize-givings and matric farewells; the courts, the provincial government and head offices hire seating for conferences and year-end functions; and Mangaung, Heidedal, Botshabelo and Thaba Nchu keep firms busy with funerals, church gatherings and traditional weddings every weekend. Garden weddings in Langenhoven Park and on the smallholdings in Bainsvlei add a steady wedding trade. Hire firms work from the industrial areas, the townships and the smallholdings, and they deliver across the central Free State. Summer storms and hail roll in fast, and winter nights bring hard frost, so check sides and heating.
Typical ghost chair hire requests in the area come from:
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: clear chairs for the family at an indoor memorial in a small chapel
- Churches and faith gatherings: a church wedding reception or an anniversary dinner in a fellowship hall
- Schools, colleges and universities: a matric farewell with a glam theme or a graduation cocktail evening
