While searching posts, I found that a few years back there were brides that had built their own arbors or had them made for them, and were passing them along or selling them to other brides after their ceremony - are any of the 2014 brides planning on having an arbor made that they would consider selling when they are done? Of course, I'm not sure how this would work unless one of them live in the OBX or close - but I wanted to ask...renting one plus the delivery fee just seems so expensive. I thought of making my own - but then there is the issue of transporting it...we'd have to rent a trailer and that defeats the purpose of saving money to make it ;-) If not - does anyone know of any lesser-known companies on the OBX that make/rent arbors? I thought I might find someone down there who might make things like that since weddings are such a big business there, but I haven't been able to find anything (even looked on the local Craigslist).
Thanks
Re: Bamboo arbor?
I really like the look of that - did you buy your bamboo poles or rent them from somewhere?
Thank you!
Thank you for sharing - do you mind telling me where you rented it from? I was quoted $150 from Ocean Atlantic for their bamboo arbor (includes set up but not delivery...which is another $100 but we're renting chairs as well so we'll be paying a delivery fee regardless I guess), but that is just the bare arbor without linen or any kind of decor. Did you have to decorate it yourself or did whoever you rented it from decorated it also for that price?
Thank you!
