Finishing touch quoted us $45 per table (standard size), $75 for bride/groom table (larger sheet for draping), and $3.70 per chair sash. She won't budge on the per table cost, only willing to go down to $3.50, but willing to waive taxes with a cash payment.
Is there another linens place that anyone else recommends? Anyone with quality linens and good pricing?
Thanks!

We used Table Wear who is a vendor on here. She did our sashes (our hall provided chair covers) She was so reasonable and so professional. She made every single bow perfectly. They looked gorgeous.

I got a chair sash quote from them for less than 1/2 of that $3.75 quote. Definitely check them out!

I purchased. I used them for my E-party and I'm using them for my wedding as well. I was quoted $30.00 from another company to rent the sheer organza linen I wanted and I was quoted $18.00 from sashesforlove.com for custom made ones. I think I'm going to sell them after my wedding. Its soo much cheaper for me to do it this way.

Re: Linens/Chair sash quote
Just to update everyone. I decided to go with Linen Creations...Ada was so sweet, and she actually had more styles in my color scheme (lavender/light violet) than Finishing Touch. And get this, she is charging me less than half what Finishing Touch was going to charge me for the same exact pattern...she also happened to have it.
I do not like to say anything negative about a LIW vendor, but it came as a surprise to me, esp since Finishing Touch was highly recommended by my hall and works very often with my florist. Once I started to try to negotiate with her, she became very rude and pretty said 'take it or leave it', and said that she doesn't make any money until she rents it out a few times.
Because my linens were a special order (I guess it's a new style no one has yet bc Ada also has to order it), she refused to negotiate the price. I was highly skeptical of that, and then really felt like MaryAnn (from FT) was really taking me for a ride when Ada had the same thing and was able to charge me less than half! Also for the chairs, and threw in the bride and groom table for free!
After I got price quotes over the phone from Linen Creations and Table Wear (both similar), I asked MaryAnn what her linens were made of so that I could understand if there were quality differences because I was getting much cheaper quotes elsewhere. She emails me back, saying yes there are quality differences but without telling me what they were made of!
Aside from price, I am so much happier giving my business to someone who deserves it more. I was afraid that I would have to compromise my linens, but in the end, I'm really glad for your guys' suggestion.
Sorry for the long rant, but I wanted people to know since she is a popular vendor and she left a very bad taste in my mouth.
