I am not getting married until July 9, 2011 but already starting the planning process. I found that it is cheaper (or about the same) to buy linens versus rent them. I haven't figured out colors yet but figured I could do white or ivory linens and get table runners in the colors I choose (found them for under $3 a piece). I am going to need to get 20-22 120" round table linens and wanted to see if anyone else was getting married in Charlotte and maybe wanted to split the cost.
