We've gone for chair covers, but only because the chairs at the venue are pretty ugly! I did find a company that would do it for £2.50 a chair, but they only did organza sashes, the other half wanted satin bless him! So its almost £4 a chair, but they do everything for you. Also having them tied cravat style, will upload photos when I get chance. Will really set the venue off, and to be fair this is my only splurge!! x

gonna re-bump this conversation! We've recently signed our contract with the venue and on doing so they supply you with a book of vouchers from their preferred suppliers. We thought we would have chair covers (i'm a bit of a fussy monkey when it comes to finishing touches!), and so we thought we'd get a quote from their preferred supplier for these. Looking at £500 for 140! that sounds a lot to me! So we've done some digging and got a quote for £2.50 a chair so looking at £350. Does that sound reasonable? I'm waiting for them to confirm the price though as the original quote I was being a bit blonde and put we only needed 70 (forgot we need 70 for ceremony and 70 for wedding breakfast! Hoping they'll drop the price per chair! xx

The cheapest & best looking chair covers i have seen are priced at £1.50 per chair cover & sash ... debating whether to have them but the chairs in the venue we have will look so much better with them...maybe i could speak to the in-laws considering there not putting anything towards the wedding haha

Xxxx

I think if they come back with £2 a chair we'd be happy with that. Really makes the difference to our venue! Haha what a fantastic exchange for you Lizzylou! Ooo hire people came back and said our venue (she's worked with them before!) would move the chairs from ceremony to breakfast room so would only need the 70! And she'd come back and collect them the next day, so all we would need to pay is £175! So chuffed!

I want these at our wedding as the chairs are red and our theme is blue and white, not found a supplier yet. Been looking and there are loads about. X x

wow thats an amazing deal! Unfortunately no where near me in Bristol :( xx

There is a lady in Lincolnshire on the book of face doing the 1st 50 chairs at £1 each - let me know if any of you want the link :-)

Ours cost £92.50 for 70 white spandex chair covers with a purple sash and delivery and collection. Don't pay £550 for chair covers! Look around, you'll find them much cheaper! x

I'd definitely go and check the chairs out Velcro and then do some digging for suppliers! 550 is a lot of money! Ours our blue chairs with a cadbury purple theme and a red carpet.. not good! Our venues preffered supplier was £3.50 a chair and we've found a lovely lady who will do it for 2.50! xx

would the chair supplier people actually come and do it for you, rather than just giving you the covers and saying here you go have fun haha? I might just see what the chairs look like without the covers, I cant say I give too much of a stuff about what the chairs look like anyway, we're only gunna be sitting on them

Well as much as I said I wouldnt have them, I did order them, in pale gold, and it made the room prettier

Anne, your picture from your wedding day are beautiful :) xx
