Keep in mind there has been a price increase. This could be why some items seem over priced.

I have noticed in our pricing that the cost of chair covers & sash has gone up? Is this true? Or just our billing?

 

[CharacterFan]

I've only heard 8.50 a chair. How much do you have listed?

 

[HopefulDisneyBride]

My wedding is next month and I am paying $10.50 each for chair covers with a sash.

Does it depend on the material or something? Mine were $8.50 and were just ivory poly cotton with an organza sash, maybe ones that are a little more fancy are more expensive. Or maybe the price has just gone up

OMG!!! It went up that much???? I wonder what else went up...do any future 2010/2011 brides have up to date pricing on musicians, venues, menu's, decor, etc.?

Thanks

When I went for my site visit Stacy mentioned the seat cover and sash price was $10.50.

 

[malibustacey]

they definately must have gone up then- i at first got a quote for $8.50 - the standard chair cover & sash.

Now we have been quoted $10.50 - our chair covers are costing us nearly $800- that is absolutely crazy. I dont want to spend that on chair covers - but the WHR chairs i dont like at all, and i need the chair covers. Im torn! I can't justify spending $800 on chair covers.

I dont know what to do!

Your planner could also be over-pricing it for potential price hikes. They can't lock in the prices until 6 months out and you and I are over twice that away So they may just want to protect you from getting a second sticker shock when you get the 2010 pricing.

My quote was for satin covers - maybe that's the reason for the difference?

Yup was just about to say that or even wrose - the prices will go up again before you can lokc them in 6 months before

I think you are right.

I am having the chiavari chairs in the WHR and the chairs with the covers and sashes for the cocktail hour on the patio. Those covers are cotton and are costing me $8.50 per chair. The chiavari chairs are $12.50 a chair plus a $200 move fee.

I know what you mean about spending $800 on chair covers. I at first felt the same way. So I cut other things to get the chairs I wanted because using those WHR chairs was not an option because I hated them! Make sure if you are having a cocktail hour to include those chairs as well if you want covers because they will automatically just give you the chairs with no covers out there on the patio.

if you only need chairs for the WHR you could use an outside vendor. Our reception is at the GF (we hope) and that is what I plan to do. The place I plan to use is called Bell Chair Covers (a few knot brides recommended them) and they charge $6 per chiavari chair (your choice of colors and seat pad colors and includes set up fee) and I believe a $60 delivery fee. For us it is saving us close to $700 to use them. Disney said it was fine, but that they would only be able to set up an hour before the event. I contacted Bell and they said that was perfectly fine and we would just need to provide a seating chart before the event.

Here's the website: www.bellchaircoversrentals.com/indexbell.cfm
The website says $9, but when I spoke to them they said $6.
