Where Can I Find Cheap Table Cloths?

Do you have any idea where I can get cheap table cloths from? I’m looking for white ones for round tables and a big one for the top wedding table. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks, Karen

Answer:

Funny you should mention that, as I deliberated for a quite a while with my table cloths. I ended up hiring mine along with the cutlery and crockery. They were lovely, pristine white linen table cloths for next to nothing. I definitely think it was worth it. However, I didn’t hire the napkins – that was way too expensive, instead, I used high quality, linen-style paper napkins.

Some other ideas that we came up with were to use banqueting roll – although we felt this would look a bit cheap, so only good for the buffet table. We even thought of buying white bed sheets – not the most glamourous, but if they fit your table, will anyone really notice that it’s not a table cloth?

Our final idea at the time was to buy white linen (or cotton) material and make up the table cloths. My mum’s friend is good with a sewing machine and was very willing to knock them out!

All in all though, we found that the best way was to hire them – it just worked out cheaper then buying or making!


Best of luck
