Hello Atlanta Brides!
Bel Fiore Bridal sat down with Cheryl Estes of Sweet Seats, Atlanta’s number one Chair Rentals & Covers company, to learn some valuable tips for brides on their wedding day and choosing their chair & cover rental company.

1) How did you get started in the chair rental business?
I’ve always loved coordinating events and helping others celebrate the milestones in their lives. Rentals seemed like a natural part of my passion’s progression as well as an excellent way to fulfill a need and continue helping brides prepare for their special day.
2) How do chair rentals work?
Oftentimes, brides have decided that they want specialty chairs for their wedding ceremony and reception, so sometimes it’s a matter of deciding on the color of chair, which color cushion will help enhance their decor, and how many chairs they will need. If the bride would like a complimentary consultation at the venue with the chairs to help them make a decision, I am happy to offer that as a part of their selection process. Once they know what they want, I send them an estimate and contract for them to take a look at, and their $200 non-refundable deposit establishes them on the Sweet Seats calendar. I strive to help the bride select a specialty chair that is stylish and will compliment their decor, as well as align with their budget.
3) How does chair rental pricing work?
Sweet Seats offers chair rentals that range from $2 to $11 per chair and delivery rates that start at $125. For example, an order for 100 silver chiavari chairs with white cushions that will be delivered to a venue in metropolitan Atlanta will cost approximately $675 (before taxes).

4) Do you service more than the Atlanta area?
We do service areas beyond Atlanta, and charge delivery rates based upon the miles from our metropolitan Atlanta are location. The rental rate per chair is the same whether your venue is in Atlanta or Albany, but the delivery rate is determined by the distance and time involved with the event. For example, an overnight stay may be required and the cost of lodging will be included in the delivery rate.
5) Are chair rentals necessary?
Chair rentals are necessary if the venue doesn’t offer any chairs, if they don’t have enough chairs to accommodate the guest count, and/or if the bride would like a specialty chair to truly enhance the decor and theme of the wedding and reception.
6) Do you offer any other services or products?
For smaller events such as rehearsal dinners and bridal showers, Sweet Seats does offer some 60 inch round and 6 foot long tables. For an additional fee, we can rent a larger number of tables and bring tables and chairs to the event. Sweet Seats partners with some fabulous vendors in the metro area and can provide satin sashes and other satin linen that can be delivered with any Sweet Seats event order.

7) Tell us why brides should choose Sweet Seats for their chair rental needs?
