linens and florist.

kendallkay1985

I'm looking for good and affordable linen and florist reccomendations. I got quotes for each from my wedding planner and they seemed a bit high for what we want. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Try San Antonio Budget Bridal.  I've had a good experience with Jennifer thus far.

I also met with Jennifer at Budget Bridal. She was $300 less than Freesia Designs and Jen also is provided a toss bouqet for free. I have a meeting with Bilsi today just to compare prices.

Budget Bridal quoted me around $650 for pin tuck linens for all my tables and candy buffet, flowers, bouqets, coursages, centerpeices, sweetheart table and uplighting. Im having a small wedding- about 40 people.

Beware- Budget Bridal has terrible reviews online. I know angry brides are more like to review something than happy brides... but her reviews are consistant... she has been LATE by over 2 hrs on several occations. If you book her... which I probably will.... make sure she is setting up the morning of your wedding. I would not recommend being her last stop if she books multiple events on your date. Her reviews for being late were mostly for 5-6pm wedding times....where she got stuck in traffic or lost. I addressed my concerns with Jennifer and even though she has bad reviews. I felt comfortable with her answers. But I am taking extra precautions and talking with other vendors.

My quote for linens from Budget Bridal was actually more than my quote for linens from Affordable Elegance. Their website is http://www.aelegancelinenco.com. Budget's price per table was less but they're set up fees made the total more somehow. Affordable Elegance has better customer ratings too.

I talked with budget bridal at one of the wedding show and they seemed fairly price but when I checked their reviews I did get a little worried. I will check affrodable elegance. Thank you all for you help.

I'm using Affordable Elegance.  Mayra and her mother are such a pleasure to work with.  Great prices!  My lines are less than $300 for 150 ppl.

I will definately be checking with affordable elegance. My wedding planner quoted me almost $1100.00 for plain black linens, ivory runner and back chair covers with no sashes. (for 170) I'm no expert but that seems kind of high.

I got my linens at Marquee in Austin at the half off Annual Sale. Check with your planner and see if she knows of any local rental companies that have sales like this in the area.

Also Aztec rental is another place you can check or Comal Rentals in New Braunfels.

I saw tons of rental places online that charge $25 for table linens and chair covers for tables of 10. The only reason I didnt use them is my hotel is paying for the chaircovers as part of my wedding package and I am upgrading to pin tuck linens for the tables.I think it was Ace Rentals....but Im not sure.

i found my notes... it was Glamorous Gatherings.. $25 per table including 8 chair covers $25 per table... at 170 people that 20 tables... give or take... looking around $500... over half of what your placed charged.

I have been doing tons of research.... this budget bride is getting major bang for her buck.
