Investing in high-quality wholesale wedding linen offers you the opportunity to reuse the linen yourself or sell it on to another bargain-hunting bride. If you’re not sure whether to take the plunge, or fear you won’t have space to store it, here are WWS’s suggestions for making the most of your fabric.

Reuse

If you’re setting up home as a couple, some of those wholesale wedding linens could be useful for decorating. Put aside some tablecloths, napkins and even chair covers for your own home dining set. They’ll be perfect for special occasions, and what could be sweeter than serving up family dinners in the future on the same wedding linen you celebrated your marriage with?

If you are planning to reuse your linens, it’s vital to make sure they are properly laundered and pressed before you store them. The quicker any marks can be dealt with, the less danger there is of stains becoming permanent. On natural fibres such as cotton, stains and crumbs will attract moths and other pests. If you are going on a honeymoon, ask a friend or family member to arrange laundering, or ask your venue or catering company to arrange it with their regular company.

Sell

As well as the most well-known auction sites, there are specialist bridal websites that will help you to re-sell your wholesale wedding linen after your wedding. This is a smart solution as, by buying new, you get exactly what you want for your wedding, but can recoup some of these upfront costs by selling the wedding linens afterwards. Bear in mind that you will need to launder the linen before selling it, and it does take time to arrange the sale.

Online isn’t your only marketplace for used wholesale wedding linen. If your venue is new to weddings or there’s a recent entrant to the market in your area, it could be well worth approaching them to see if they might want to buy your complete wedding linens for their own stock cupboard. New venues are likely to need everything from a choice of wedding chair sash to a full suite of wedding linen.

Don’t forget to use the bridal grapevine, too. There’s a good chance a friend or friend of a friend is engaged and going through the wedding planning process. They may well be very glad to be able to snap up wedding linen at a reduced price. Good friends might even want to share the upfront cost, if you can agree on the perfect colour for that wholesale wedding chair cover or wedding chair sash.

The key is making sure the linen you do buy is made from high-quality material, is a practical size and is neutral enough to be readily repurposed. WWS has the widest selection on the market, making it the natural choice.
