  13. Qualifying the Client I have a long standing relationshipwith the Wedding Planner. I was one of the firston property to look at the space for the tents. The overall result of this wedding was to have a one-of-a-kind wedding that was spectacular and over the top. Budget wasn’t a concern because of the clients lifestyle.

  14. Recommending appropriate equipment and services I started with the foundation – the tents and flooring. Then I suggested adding the service entrance and exit stairs, carpet, power, utilities, and catering equipment as well as finishing out the sides of the flooring with scrim.

  15. Recommending appropriate equipment and services We also provided “Event Prep” service to get the tent cleaned and ready. As for the rental equipment, I recommended using our Chameleon chairs dressed with White toppers and custom rhinestone belts, chargers, heaters and upscale linens. These particular upgrades accounted for the biggest rental $ cost other than the tents.
