Parasol or white umbrella - where can I buy one in NYC

in New York-New York City
I'm in a bit of a time crunch - getting married this Sunday and the weather will be on the warm side.  I'd like to get my hands on a white parasol or umbrella to provide coverage when we are taking our outdoor pictures.

Can anyone recommend a store in NYC where I can get one - I only need one and nothing too expensive.

TIA!

    You can get plenty of parosol's in China Town
    Are you near there?  OR try a craft store like Michaels

    Good luck and Have a GREAT day!!!

    I don't know of any Michael's, except outside the city which I won't have time.  Forgot about Chinatown - hopefully I can find a white one, without embellishments.  Red and blues I feel like I'd have to trouble there, but you never know.

    Thanks much.

    Awesome Alison, thanks so much - this will save me time rather than walking up and down the sidewalks looking for one!

    Gracious Home has umbellas for outdoors.  Don't know if they are the size you want.

    Otherwise, bloomies

    Thanks, I got mine from Pearl River - super nice and very cheap.  Ordering from the Knot, aside from costing more, wouldn't have helped as my wedding was this past weekend.

    But for others looking for one in the future, Pearl River is the place to go.  They also have a ton of other things - wish I had gone there sooner, as I loved the baskets they had, compared to what I bought, and other cool items...
