    Hi bees, we went to Hobby Lobby and Michaels last night to find a white parasol. I saw every color except white at Hobby Lobby and there weren't any at Michaels. I was considering ordering online, but I am running out of time.

    Do you think it will be okay if I used a plain white umbrella? I want to paint our wedding date on it. We plan to use it to do the Second Line at our wedding.

    Have you checked China Town if you have one in your area. You can find parasols there.

    @PuntaCanaBride: Thanks and Welcome to Weddingbee!

    I don't think there is a Chinatown out her. I'm new to the area so I will have FH ask his co-workers.

    If ordering it online isn't an option, maybe you could check party supply stores in your area?

    @PitBulLover: Thanks, but IDK if I could get it in time. My wedding is on NYD. They have a notice on their site  saying: We're currently moving to a larger building! Orders placed after 1:00pm EST 12/9/10 will not be shipped until Monday, Dec 13th

    try http://asianideas.com/paper.html

    I think a regular umbrella would be fine, if thats what you have to do.  It would be a different look.
