Please describe the project specifications

A 30'3" x 54'4" custom Stillwater tent that attaches to the clubhouse.


What was the purpose of this project? What did the client request?

A bride to be approached Durkin Tent Rentals with a special request for a sailcloth tent at the Ridgewood Country Club. The caveat was to design a sailcloth style tent which would cover the patio while securing to the clubhouse.


What is unique or complex about the project?

Fred's Tents worked closely with Durkin's to redesign Fred's standard Stillwater to fit the footprint of the clubhouse patio. In order to meet the customers needs Fred's and Durkin's had to take into consideration the multiple elevation levels, attachment points, and weatherproofing.


What were the results of the project?

The combined efforts of Fred's and Durkin's lead to a beautiful sailcloth style tent with a seamless transition from the clubhouse to the patio and a very happy bride.
