New & Need To Borrow Some Chairs.

Post by gskphoto »

Hi,
I'm new here. i actually live in Bangkok but love Hua Hin.
In fact, i'm getting married there in a couple of weeks, so i need help with a couple of things.
First and foremost, we have a chair problem, not a huge problem i hope.
We have 60 chairs and we need 69. so... Does anyone here know i place i could rent (or even better, borrow...) 10 chairs in Hua Hin or Pranburi?
Please, help!
Guil.

Apparently i can't post a photo here, so:

The ones we have look like the simple index type bent wood with thin metal legs... anything of similar dimensions (or close enough because it's covered) will be great!
please email me for a photo.

I know when we've held party's in the North East, we've been able to borrow chairs for next to nothing from the Amphur (sp?). I also know a similar arrangement is possible in Hua Hin, because I've seen them at funerals.

Hopefully, somebody will be able to post details for you.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your wedding!
Good luck with the chair problem. Seems an odd chance that someone would have nine similar chairs kicking about that they could lend to you. Why can't you get another nine from the place you got the first 60?

Anyway cheers and good luck!

Get 10 more chairs from the same place i got the first 60? gee i haven't thought of that! The hotel has 60 chairs. I don't even need the same exact chair (although it would be better) since they will be covered, just something of similar size so it fits in the covers.

Thanks for the Amphur suggestion, i'll check it out. does anyone have a contact there?

As I understand it, you are holding the reception at a Hotel. To be honest, if it were me, I would be telling the Hotel to round up the extra chairs or I will find another venue. Or am I missing something here?

Either way, Chok Dee na. :cheers:

I absolutely agree with you, but that's a bit too late 2 weeks before the wedding, wouldn't you say?
Now, some constructive help would be great.
Thanks.

If they want the business just push the manager and I'm sure they will come up with the extra 9.

Good luck with the wedding gskphoto, save us all some cake.

Thanks for the move!
Now, let's try this again... Does anyone know an event planning/ party rental company in Hua hin, Chaam, Pranburi? or does anyone have a business (or a home) that can spare/ rent out 10 simple chairs on Saturday night, October 17th?
The venue can't help, so I'm looking for your help.
Thanks.
