Hey y’all, welcome back! Today's topic is one that can cause stress on anyone planning an out event. You guessed it... weather. Due to its unpredictable nature, weather can be difficult to plan for. Because of this, event professionals have adapted and created what the industry refers to as a “weather backup plan”.
No matter where your event is located geographically, you will need to take the weather into consideration when planning your outdoor event. Here in the South, our weather is especially unpredictable. We contend with heat, humidity, and thunderstorms. These weather conditions are heightened in the spring and summer months. If you are planning an event during the fall or winter seasons, you will need to consider cold temperatures and the potential for rain.
Our goal at SOHO is to assist you in developing a weather backup plan from the very beginning that still works with the vision for the event. Once we have an idea of your vision for your special event and the details of when and where it will be held, we will discuss the potential need for a weather backup plan. The first step is to understand your different tenting options. We have the largest tent inventory on the Gulf Coast and pride ourselves on having a variety of different options and sizes when it comes to tenting! We understand the importance of keeping your event design intact, even if you decide to move forward with your weather backup plan.
Once you have selected your tent option, we will walk you through other potential rentals you may need when considering different weather factors. Again, the location and season of your event will influence these selections. These could be numerous options including: sidewalls, gutters, lighting, draping, walkways, heaters, fans, or even thermostat controlled heating or cooling.
Until next time, Cheers!
