Rentals

Really? How much?!?

This has been quite a busy, but very successful week of planning! Thank goodness for spring break and a week off from teaching :)

My mom, grandmother, and I got quite alot done.
-Book the florist... check
-order cocktail napkins...check
-book the rehearsal dinner site...check
-sort through all the many details... check
-order the rentals such as chairs, chair covers, column, etc.... not so good!

I had no idea that just the chairs (for the ceremony) and chair covers and sashes (for the reception) would be at least $8 per person! WOW! Not to mention all the linens for the tables, the columns for the ceremony, and anything else we decide that we need. I love the look of the chair covers and sashes, but is it worth it for the price? After talking to my mom about it, we decided... actually she told me they are a MUST (and since she is paying for it, I can't really disagree!) So does anyone know of a place I can get them for cheaper than $5? HELP!

Try http://www.qualitychaircovers.com/ they have reasonable prices and will ship them to you.

I'm not from your area. But my advise is find a place that aleardy includes the set up fee in the cost of chair covers. It took me a minute to figure this out. Ex: thought $1.00 per chair for set up was good, x 100 chairs, $100.00. Chair cover itself $2.50 per chair x 100, $250. Grand total $350.00, for 100 chairs, good right? NO! Found someone who included the set up/tear down cost in the cover. $3.00 a chair, $300.00 total. $50 savings. May not seem like a lot, but I had $50 extra for something else. Just pay careful attention to every detail. Good luck!
