Anyone renting chair covers?

If so, from where and what type? I am looking for the organza ones to go over the chiavari (sp?) chairs.

Im renting the chivalri chairs for an insane amount each!! Not that this helps you with your chair cover search but I just wanted to lend some moral support because everyone thinks Im crazy to rent the chairs - but they make such a huge difference in the room.

Re: Anyone renting chair covers?

Thanks ladies for the input. Chivalri chairs are the ones where the back looks like bamboo chutes. They come in white, gold, silver and I believe other colors. I will try to post a pic.

Sonic, I was quoted $7 per chair. Did you do better?

Re: Anyone renting chair covers?

Oh!!!!
Excuse my ignorance.

I always referred to them as the 'bamboo chairs'.

Re: Anyone renting chair covers?

Nope, my quote from my florist was $9 with a $200 set up or something like that. But I found out that my reception site rents them for $8/each without a set up fee. So Im paying a lot for those chairs. But the alternative (blue conference chairs) were going to drive me crazy.
