    Hey guys

    I'm buying my chair covers etc as it's cheaper to do this than rent where I am but I don't know whether to have organza chair hoods, organza chair bows or organza chair bows with lace bows over the top.

    What are other people having? Xx

    I think it depends on your colour scheme. Ours is a dark red and pics I've seen of organza with lace for dark colours look a bit wishy washy in my opinion. Pale colours organza with lace look lovely though.
    We're considering having taffeta with the lace as gives a more solid colour. Have a look at pics online x

    Me and FH have not decided on chair decoration yet, but I have been to a few weddings where they had Organza chair bows. I think chair bows are really pretty and stand out well, what is your colour scheme?

    We haven't made a decision on this as yet. Visiting our venue at the end of this month and will take a look at the chairs, and will make a decision then, if they are in good condition we may not bother - but will check again a few months before the date to see if we do need them, I'm sure the venue would be happy to add them to the bill.

    Looking forward to becoming the 3rd and last Mrs McLauchlan

    We had ivory cotton (not the stretchy lycra type) hair covers with satin latte coloured sashes

    It very much depends on how different you want to be, personally I like the cotton chair covers with organza sash which is what we had. Simple yet effective.

    I have a pet hate of chair covers so when we went to the venue earlier in the month and they had dark cream chairs that looked ok I decided that we would just have pink sashes as our theme is yellow and pink.

    As for the type of material we're having, we haven't met with the lady who hires them out so I'm not sure. I didn't consider until I read this post that it might be cheaper to buy material and do ourselves though so thank you!
