How much are you paying for tablecloths?

Table clothes and napkins and plates etc are all included in our venue.. thank goodness... but I think 8 dollars is a little much.. how many tables do you need? Is there any way to negotiate that price with the place?

We just went with the freebies that the venue offered. Does your venue have anything to give you?

Our venue is SUUUUUPER cheap, it's the local masonic temple, so the building is beautiful, but you don't get any linens provided. We get tables, chairs, the ceremony space, the reception space, a lounge area, and a really pretty part on the second floor for pics. We're paying a little under 800 for it, and we get it from Friday at 8 am to Sunday at 10 am. For that pricing, I really can't be mad if they don't give me anything! I am TOTALLY going to look into all of the suggestions that you ladies have provided, thank you all so much!!

Through a rental company we're getting our dishes through they are $5 each, folded in totes. If they're ironed and hung they're $7, but I figure folded is okay too.

Comes with the venue, including overlays and napkins.

White or ivory floor length tablecloths are $13/ea through the venue and $15/ea through my centerpiece/decorations vendor.

I bought mine at LinenTablecloth.com during a 25% off sale. Mine were about $11 each before the discount, which is double what renting would have been at my venue. However, my venue had really limited colors and I had my heart set on bright green!

$20/each to rent

Hey Mika, I would suggest you to buy table covers and chair covers as you could sell them easily after your event and recover a major part of money. We purchased table covers online and reselled one of the close friends for their wedding. Check this facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/pages/Sculptware/160544890632918.
