Guide to Wedding Chairs

I really loved this post about wedding chairs that I had to share with our readers.  There are so many little and minor decisions to be made during the wedding planning process and who would of ever thought you have to decide on what kind of chairs you want your guest to sit on?  There are many options, however, price becomes a factor of what you're willing to spend on chairs.  Chairs can range from $5.00-$22.00 a chair. 

Happy Chair searching! =)

BANQUET CHAIRSThis is typically the type of chair that is included with many hotel and venue packages. Quite a tragedy in my opinion… the ones pictured below are actually halfway decent! I’ve seen some horrendous ones in my day…

CHAIR COVERSI admit, that spandex cover on the left kinda scares me! But, when done right, chair covers make the typical banquet chair a little more presentable.

PADDED FOLDING CHAIRThese folding chairs are available in a variety of colors and are especially popular for outdoor ceremonies. They would work well in a rustic, more casual venue. For example, they would not look quite right in an upscale hotel, but would look perfectly at home in a loft/warehouse space.

VERSAILLES CHAIR aka OPERA CHAIRI like these chairs as much as I like the chiavari chair (see below)

CHIAVARI CHAIRSThe classic, ubiquitous wedding chair that many brides lust after (not an exaggeration in many cases, I confess I did too!). Available in many colors and sometimes two types of padding – the one on the far left is more like a harder pad versus the other two which are cushion-like. They are called different things by different companies, so be sure to check what your rental company offers.

CHAMELEON CHAIRThese are sleek and sexy and would look fabulous in a more contemporary setting! Rental is costly but if you can swing it…

GHOST CHAIRAhhh, the ghost chair is coveted not only for weddings, but also for home decor! I’ve never actually requested a quote for these, but I’ve heard that they rent for upwards of $50 a chair… rent! But they are spectacular…

What kind of chairs will you have for your wedding, or was it even a point of concern?
