Just got a quote for linens and I'm shocked by the price...and its just to rent them. I know my caterer said that some brides find it cheaper to buy them and I was wondering if anyone had any advice? 

My colors are light blues and sages...another issue I have is white vs. ivory? My dress is white

    GEEZ!!!! We are looking at West Bay Gourmet in the next few weeks and possibly one other cater, Russell Morins before we decide. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the prices. Where are you getting married?

    We are using WestBay! KC is amazing, she def puts my nerves at ease and she was the one that actually told me that it might be cheaper to buy my own linens! We are getting married at South Ferry and reception is at the Towers.

    I've also heard it would be cheaper to buy, I'm concerned about resale since they aren't just plain colored linens.  I have a quote for tables/chairs/linens, etc. that's 1k+ so I'm no help.  I'm going through Rentals Unlimited but you could check Felicia's in Fall River.

    To be honest though, linens to rent aren't cheap.

    I bought my own linens after I met a few rental companies including the one I used (Rentals-Unlimited) and I was also shocked with the linen quote. I bought my linens from CV linens and Smarty had a Party. FB Smarty had a Party for a discount and CV Linens is having a blow out sale. I also used Rentals Unlimited virtual tabletop to play around with ideas and used the quote to determine the quantity and sizes. Visiting the showroom was great too. Also linen napkins can be pricey so I used high quality paper napkins that came prefolded origami star style. Click on the Smarty link to see them on the front page.
