Last week I attended a wedding industry mixer and chatted with some photographer friends. They were telling me how much they love working events that have our linens. (Yay). They can edit a lot of things, but they can’t edit wrinkles out of tablecloths. Only ironing does that!
Your friend may offer you second hand tablecloths, but are they ironed? Stain free? The correct size?
You may be able to buy cheap linens online. They are 100% polyester, arrive wrinkled and need to be ironed before use. There are 10+ yards of fabric in one 120” round. That’s almost impossible to iron on an ironing board. Just ask anyone that’s tried.
Let’s say you get past the ironing, put them on the tables and have a fantastic wedding day. If you own your linens, guess who has to wash them all? You can fit one, maybe 2 in a household washing machine. The longer you wait, the harder they are to get clean. It’ll take you a while to fold them all too. Sounds like exactly what you want to do the day after your wedding, right?
It’s not too late to reserve your rental linens for your 2026 Vermont wedding. Email me to get started: [email protected]
