The venue sets the tone and ambiance for the entire event and can impact other decisions like catering, decor, and the guest list. With so many settings to choose from, including conventional ones like banquet halls, churches, and hotels, as well as unconventional ones like parks, museums, and historical sites, it can be overwhelming for couples.

Well we can help with that decision – because with our wedding marquee hire options, your wedding location can literally be anywhere you choose!

We can set up our unique stretch fabric marquees in the comfort of your own backyard, on an isolated beach, or on the giddy heights of one of New Zealand’s iconic cliff-tops – surrounded by beautiful cliff-hanging pohutukawas.

But what about the weather…?

Well, with our FreeformFlex® fabric marquees, the weather isn’t an issue – they can be rigged canopy-style, with all the sides rolled up; or, if rain dictates, the tent material allows us to extend the fabric to meet the ground, creating a warm and weatherproof enclosure. And if the weather decides to get really wild, we can quickly install our stretch walling system for complete protection.

So, come wind, rain or shine – our marquees will protect you and your guests from the whims of Mother Nature.

And you don’t have to worry about compromising on style and décor either, because we can supply everything – from flooring and lighting, to furniture, crockery and cutlery.

At Schupepe Tents, we take care of things from start to finish – all you’ll have to worry about is turning up and saying “I do”!

So let’s find out a bit about Freeform® in South Africa…

Based in the rugged landscapes of Cape Town, every tent and marquee that we import from Freeform® is produced from start to finish in their factories, under the strictest of quality control measures. Their state of the art welding technology ensures a neat, robust, and, most importantly, watertight finish on all seams and joins; and every tent undergoes a comprehensive check for defects before it leaves their factory doors.

The FreeformFlex® fabric is the result of extensive development and research to bring a more durable, flexible and stylish product to the tent and marquee market – one that not only offers greater longevity, but is also safe, weatherproof, has a unique aesthetic appeal, and is fast setting a new international standard for the tent and marquee hire industry.

Tested in the lab and on the ground for over 4 years, this fabric ticks all the right boxes. The ultimate in durable, stretch fabric for rental , marquees and custom-fits, it is compliant with all major international fire and safety standards, and each product has been treated differently in accordance to the fire and ISO standards imposed by various countries worldwide.

With FreeformFlex® fabric you get:

~ 100% Waterproofing
~ Perfect stretch and flexibility
~ Purpose developed durable polymeric coating
~ High tenacity substrate ~ Anti-microbial treatment
~ UV stabilizers
~ Teflon® treated
~ Machine Washable
~ Easily repair without compromising waterproofing
~ Easy branded opportunities
~ Welded and taped seams for guaranteed strength and waterproofing
~ Compliance with International fire and safety standards

FreeformFlex® fabric tents and marquees offer the following features:

MACHINE WELDED SEAMS AND JOINS

Freeform® has invested extensively in fabric welding technology to ensure our seams are super strong and 100% watertight. Our specially developed seam tape melts into the top coating. This creates added strength and guarantees a seam that will not leak.

PATCHES

All patches are welded onto the tents and marquees – not just sewn. This allows the load to be spread evenly without compromising the integrity of the fabric with needle holes.

KING POLE JACK

The ‘King Pole Jack’ enables riggers to jack up the tent to the required height before inserting the pole – ensuring optimal tension and balance.

POLE CONNECTORS

The aluminum pole connectors are precision engineered to ensure no play once the poles are joined together. Although rigid when joined, they assemble and disconnect easily, allowing for fast and efficient installation and dismantling, and convenient storage.

ALUMINUM POLES, WOODEN POLES OR STAINLESS STEEL POLES

All poles supplied by Freeform® are of commercial grade. Rental tents use aluminum or wooden poles. Stainless steel poles are also available.

RUBBER POLE CAPS AND RUBBER POLE FEET

Freeform® provide only the most indestructible rubber pole caps and feet which are custom-moulded to create the perfect grip and peak, as well as a completely non-slip base for maximum safety on hard, polished floors.

So, yeah… we’re pretty proud to be able to bring this amazing product to the the events industry in New Zealand. And, because we believe in learning only from the very best – all our tent riggets have been trained by the Freeform® professionals themselves in Cape Town, South Africa.
