So, normally, I would think this is a really bad idea - but with so many St. Louis summer brides - it might work! I am looking at renting linens - but finding that I can buy them online for the same cost. Is anyone interested in investing in floor-length black linens with me? We can split the cost and sell them after we're done!Same goes for other things....just thought I would ask! Here is the list of things I am considering purchasing:battery-operated wax candles and matching hurricanesblack bengaline linens damask table runners (I am making these and will sell after August 1)votive candles - already bought almost 150 of them and will sell them after Aug. 1 to any bride in need! paper lanterns - white and greenout of town gable boxes for guests, etc.Just a thought. Weddings can be expensive and if we pool resources we just might be able to cut each other a little break!message me....
