    So earlier last month there was a user by the name of NOHOJO who has been a member since Feb 2010. I saw that she posted a service through her company that has no name. This user said she had an assortment of sizes and colors available and I along with 30 + users messaged her back and forth about table linen rentals. The prices were very good, almost too good to be true.

    After exchanging messages with her back and forth, I asked if there was a picture or link I could visit to see the actual item I would be receiving through the mail, and she never answered that question. It's not an absoulte deal breaker for me, but I just wasn't sure why a business rep would avoid my questions?

    Anyway, so I am pressed for time and really need to get linens for my wedding quickly. I would like to use her bc her company seems to be the one I can afford, but I am still worried about the quality and rep this business has.

    Does anyone here remember this user renting out table cloths online? Has anyone used this no name company for their wedding or has the linens in their hand ready to use for their wedding day? Just looking for reviews on this company and seeing if it is worth the time and money.

    Thanks in advance!

    I just bought pintuck overlays from efavormart.com and got them in about a week.  My caterer is getting me the regular linens but I really wanted pintuck overlays and couldn't find anyone local to rent them from.  I looked into a few online linen companies but the price to buy from efavormart was lower than the price to rent so I just bought them.

    there were a couple of threads on here about NOHOJO being a fraud. she totally ruined one girls wedding. I would do a search for those posts. We bought our linens cheaper than we could rent them and plan to sell them after the wedding.

    Not sure what she was asking, but she sounds shady.

    Buying really can be affordable, depending on what you want (and if you can re-sell afterwards).

    Try http://www.tableclothsfactory.com/default.asp , http://www.linentablecloth.com/ or the previously mentioned http://www.efavormart.com/index.aspx

    Thanks everyone for your input. I was sent a link to a website from a lady who warned me to stay away and how Nohojo ruined her wedding day by not delivering what was promised and will not give her a refund. This user also can not sue her because there is no actual address for the place of this business. This just sounds like a heart breaking tragic story, and a big red flag waving in my face. I think I will stick to my wedding coordinator's referred vendors and go with local professionals with a solid reputation. Sometimes paying a little more will ensure peace of mind, and that's what I need on my wedding day.

    I can't believe I am just less then 2 weeks away from my wedding day! I am freaking out with excitement!

    Gracias and Good Luck to you all!

    I had the same concerns.  I almost went with NOHOJO, and still am not convinced that he did what she said.  I emailed them personally, and got a really believable response that they don't know who the accuser is.

    ANYWAY I decided to go with Added Touch.  The 'added touch' really is personal attention!  The prices were also GREAT.  Better than anyone else.  Kay is so sweet, and you don't have to wait until the day before the wedding to get your linens.

    I know the original poster's wedding is probably past, but for anyone else worried about linens,  I wanted to post this.  If you'd like pictures just email me: loringhammond@yahoo.com

    Email Kay at addedtoucheventrentals@yahoo.com
