They were ready in a pinch and super helpful and inexpensive too! I ordered 6 round tables, a 4ft and ft rectangular and 70 chairs on Wednesday for Saturday! They were on time and of course friendly! I'll be doing more events in the future and will definitely give them a call! Party went without a hitch!
