Gauteng notes on special seating & dressing
Matric farewells from September keep throne chairs, wingbacks and photo lounges booked across the province, from Pretoria East to Benoni. Office parks in Midrand, Sandton and Centurion book padded conference chairs in theatre and cabaret layouts for launches and year-end talks. Chair covers with sashes dress church halls for umembeso and lobola celebrations. Wheelchairs are hired by the week near the big hospitals, so give the seat width and the delivery suburb.
Chairs, tables and tents in Gauteng
One Saturday in Gauteng can need a funeral tent in a Soweto yard, three hundred Tiffany chairs at a Muldersdrift wedding venue and a hall full of conference seating in Midrand, all from firms working the same roads. That competition for stock is the thing to plan around. Hire companies are spread through the industrial areas of every metro and across the townships, where many run a few tents and stacks of plastic chairs from home. Trucks move between Johannesburg, Pretoria and the East Rand daily, so transport fees usually follow distance or zones. Summer brings late afternoon thunderstorms and hail, so ask for tent sides and a plan for the walk from tent to house.
Typical wedding chair hire requests in the area come from:
- Funerals, memorials and unveilings: rarely, though families sometimes book the same chairs for a memorial a week later
- Weddings and engagements: ceremony rows either side of the aisle and matching chairs at every reception table
- Companies, conferences and functions: a staff wedding celebration or a company function dressed like a wedding reception
