Stretch Tent Marquee Package
Tensioned roof, poles, ratchet straps and ground anchors, with side panels for exposed lawns. Covers 80 to 200 guests depending on layout.
Weather cover
Open package
Whether you are chasing a delivery window for a Pretoria birthday or checking whether side panels are needed for a windy Winelands marquee, this is where you find the right next step. Tell us the date, the venue surface and your guest count, and we will point you to the correct hire list, quote form or setup note.
Most support questions come down to the same three things: what the hire package actually includes, how quantities are checked against a guest list, and what happens on delivery day. The pages below answer those in detail.
Three starting points
Tensioned roof, poles, ratchet straps and ground anchors, with side panels for exposed lawns. Covers 80 to 200 guests depending on layout.
Chairs in clear, white and olive finishes, matched to standard trestle lengths with linen and runners. A layout sheet shows seats per table.
Plates, cutlery, glassware, cake stands and serving platters, plus warmers for long buffet services. Packed in crates for collection.
Still deciding between a marquee and an indoor venue, or unsure how many chairs a 120-guest reception needs? Browse the full hire catalogue to compare sizes, finishes and available quantities side by side.
Most of what slows a booking down is small and fixable. These are the points that come up again and again when people are sorting out a wedding, a birthday or a year-end function.
For peak Saturdays between October and March, four to six weeks gives us room to hold stock and plan a delivery slot. Midweek and off-season dates are usually fine with two weeks. If your guest count is still moving, send the list anyway and flag it as provisional.
Yes. We cover venues across Gauteng, the Western Cape and surrounding farm and estate locations. Transport is quoted per route, so a venue with a long gravel access road or a steep driveway is priced differently from a city hall. Share the exact address and we will confirm the schedule.
Up to a week before delivery, yes, as long as the items are still available. Chair and table counts are the ones that shift most, so update those first. Additions inside the last few days depend on what is back from other events.
Crockery, cutlery and glassware are counted on return, and shortfalls are noted against your list. We explain the breakage terms before you confirm, so the numbers are clear from the start rather than arriving as a surprise afterwards.
Stretch tents, dance floors and larger marquees come with a staffed crew because the rigging and anchoring need to be done properly. Chairs, tables and tableware are usually delivered stacked and packed, with setup available on request for bigger functions.
The support desk is the right place to start, and you can reach us directly by phone on 0132067600 or email info@melfloraleventi.com. Our office is at 485 Diane Spurs Suite 754, Sibiyaland, NW 2785. For anything about how we handle your details, see our privacy notes, or read the hire terms before you confirm a date.
Most questions land in one of three places: a quote that needs adjusting, a delivery window that has to move, or an item you are not sure we carry. Pick the route below that matches your situation and we will take it from there.
Send your list through with the event date, venue and guest count. We check stock against your date and come back with what is held and what needs a substitute.

Questions about access roads, anchor surfaces, side panels for windy sites or a staffed setup crew for larger functions go to the logistics desk. Include a photo of the site if the ground is uneven.
Same-day reply on weekdays
Crockery, cutlery and glassware are counted on return. If something cracked during the function, tell us before collection so the count is settled in one pass instead of a back-and-forth.
Counts confirmed within two days
Phone is fastest for date changes and urgent site questions. Email works better when you are attaching a floor plan, a guest list or photos of the venue.
