I really LOVE the square vases like what are in this picture but they are so expensive to buy (I'll need about 20 tables worth) and my rental company has nothing like them. Any one have any suggestions of website that might have them cheaper?
Do you have a Target or Ikea nearby? Michael's has them and you can use a coupon to get 20% off a purchase or something like that. You can try dollartree.com or ebay. I would check the wedding bee classifieds too!
I watched the Michael's ad for the square vases to go on sale. The smaller ones often go on sale for 2 for $5 the larger ones you can get the 40% coupons or 50% coupon and just buy one at a time. We have like 3 Michaels between work and home so I stop by on my way home and pick them up 2-3 times a week. Hope that helps.
I bought mine in Vancouver's Chinatown. If you live in a city with a Chinatown, I'd suggest looking there. I got mine for half the price of the ones at Michael's. Good luck!
We got ours from Wholesale Flowers and Supplies and they are 6" square and cost less than $6 each. Shipping can get pricey if you don't live on the west coast (we're in VA) but even with shipping it was cheaper than our florist could get himself!
We are renting them from the florist. They did not have them on hand but said they would buy them and rent them to us. You might check with your florist.

They still arent CHEAP, but you could re-sell them after the wedding!

posted by Habibi 113 posts 4 months agoI had the hardest time finding these! I'm getting them from my florist, but I know that eBay had them too.

posted by indy 89 posts 4 months agoIf you have a wholesale florist in your area, they sell plain glass vases for pretty cheap. I have a ton of different sizes.

posted by jeeyol 88 posts 4 months agoTry, of all places, Walmart. They have a bunch at my local store in Ottawa, ON. I believe they were between $6 and $10 depending on size.
Another source is your dollar store but they tend to be on the smaller side.
