    Um that seems like a lot to me, but I haven't priced out this service, so I don't know how much it would normally cost on average. Where are you located?

    Is the venue charging you that or a draping company? Is that for the fabric and labor? Or just the labor? I am also in Greensboro and curious, because $1,500 seems a little high.

    I saw the picture in the link so that is why I asked what is included. Is it everything shown in the picture including the flowers, the chandelier, the chair covers, and aisle runner? As I said previously, draping itself can be expensive - upwards of a $1000 or more if professionally done.

    HI Meghan, I'm getting married at Kress Terrace and they are charging $1600 for just the draping on the sides and not the backdrop. The ceiling draping is already there. But I reached out to a vendor that a friend had used for her wedding and they were already booked so the referred me to someone else and that vendor is charging $1500 for the draping on the sides and the backdrop

    This is the draping and lights I will be having and I will be paying 2,000 and they were the cheapest place around for what I wanted. So 1,500 seems like a decent price to me. We are doing 6 panels of draping with string lights underneath and then big globe lights in between with a chandelier I. The center

    Draping is expensive. I'm just doing a single ivory drapery that's 30 feet tall and I was quoted around the same amount at 1500 at multiple places.

    The chandelier and the chair covers come with the venue. I will have to provide my own runner./flowers The venue charges $1600 just for the draping of the sides, the ceiling draping is a permanent fixture of the venue. I found a vendor that charges $1500 for the draping of the sides and the backdrop

    I think since this covers the actual fabric and the labor, it is probably a decent price. I’ve heard great things about Kress. This will be beautiful!

    Seems like a reasonable cost to me. In northern VA that would run $****.

    Maybe check out a couple of different companies to see who gives you the best price. That seems like a little high.
