Chair Covers

You may not think chair covers are such a big deal, but for those of you who can work covers into your budget, you won’t regret the end result...if you make an informed choice. 

Chair covers really add a touch of class by pulling the whole room together and also hiding crazy colored or outdated banquet chairs  The important thing to remember when renting chair covers is “you get what you pay for”.  Be sure to ask lots of questions before agreeing to rent from your vendor.

Too many times, while browsing the internet, we have noticed wrinkly covers, covers that don’t fit the chair or covers that look old and dingy.  Covers come in many types of fabrics, but they are not all created equal.  Satin covers wrinkle quickly and can be slippery when guests sit on them.  Bag type covers usually hang onto the floor more and can be a hassle with guests tripping when coming and going from the table.

You really want to learn about the quality, fit and condition of the covers you intend to rent.  You may find vendors that are cheaper than others, but do some investigating and find out why they are so much cheaper.

Our main concerns with chair covers are that they are clean, tear free and unwrinkled.  We are also very conscious about sash placement.  We feel it is important that all of the sashes are lined up evenly and look uniform.  The results of this detail can be seen below in the this ceremony set up at Mankato City Center Hotel.

At By Design, we use wrinkle free scuba chair covers.  They are 100% polyester and have a scuba stretchiness to them.  This means no wrinkles and a snug fit on the chair.  The before and after photos below are a great example of the dramatic improvement our chair covers have made to the ambiance of this banquet room at Jackpot Junction.
