Bunker Bash – Military Theme 16th Birthday Party

Over The Moon journeyed north to Glasgow for the 1st of April to produce a military theme party. The client’s brief was a military themed event and to cover a large 7mx4m pond right in the middle of the lawn. The pond span was too large for the vintage military tents to go over so we offered to camouflage a 19x15m Intent. We also used sides from our military tents to edge the Intent to add more olive green and the lived-in look of a military base.

We also added props like ammo crates, jerry cans, parachutes and lots more camo nets around the garden. The client had a large stage built over the pond that was suitably camouflaged and the look was completed with 180 combat ready 16-18 year olds. The night went off with a bang.

Bunker Bash - Military Theme Party

Garden Of Eden Summer Ball at the Oxford Union

Over The Moon Events provided tents, lighting, decor, DJ’s and sound systems for the Summer Ball at the Oxford Union. It was a prestigious event to be involved in as the Union has been the place where weekly debates are held and many famous UK and foreign politicians have learnt the art of debate.

The black Intent's peeps out from the Oxford Union's courtyard

The events theme was the Garden of Eden and there was a choice of modern and old, black and white, tribal and urban tents with the courtyard filled with tipi’s, a yurt and a lovely black Intent.

The Yurt and Tipi's made a nice chill out space overlooked by the Oxford Union building.

It was the first booking we had for the black Intent and wasn’t she a beauty. This is a tent that cries out for a dancefloor, club type event inside.

Trystonbury 2008 – A success against the odds

Over The Moon Tents supplied stylish Intents to this years Trystonbury mini-festival in Windsor.

Orange 15x13m Intent

The event took place on the first weekend in September a time that saw the country deluged by torrential rains and floods. It didn’t look good for things on the friday night as we had a sream running through the middle of the tent and water running off in sheets! We kept the spirits up with the help of the medicinal drink or three and stayed warm and snug in the crew caravan. Fortune smiled on us and the rain abated by midnight and we awoke the next day to some sunshine! The day stayed dry as the rest of England seemed to get more rain.

We got the job done and the event was considered to be the best one yet of the four so far.
