Linen Upgrades

Basic linens? That just won’t do! Throw away that old tablecloth –frayed, yellowed, and stained from being used time and time again, from event after event. Turn your nose up at boring white chair covers. It is your wedding, and you deserve better!

But maybe, after carefully reviewing your budget, you find that you do not have the financial means for renting a full linen package; that you will be forced to settle for the bland linens provided to you by the average venue...

Do not worry. One of the few virtues pertaining to these somewhat mediocre packages is that you, as the customer, still have room to upgrade; without breaking the bank and without compromising the dignity of your intended wedding theme.

Listed are but a few options available to you:

1. Chair Sashes & Table Runners
Although simple, adding colorful chair sashes or even a table runner has the ability to mask the plain linen lying underneath.

2. Drapery
As the bride is the primary focal point during the wedding ceremony, so too does the Head Table and Cake Display act as centerpieces for the reception that follows. Adding a colorful drapery to one or both of these setups guarantees an elegant distraction, an illusion of perfection, for both you and your guests.

3. Table Setting
Even the seemingly trivial can sometimes prove to be the most beneficial in beauty. Place settings are a prime example. Whether or not you choose to further accessorize your chairs and tables –via sashes, runners, or drapery –the presence of table mats and folded napkins, although seemingly simplistic, still have an alluring power. The one beauty that never goes unnoticed, to be sure, is the one that is placed right in front of you.
