Bentwood Bistro Chair Rental Cost: 100 Chairs in Chicago
Renting 100 bentwood bistro chairs suits a mid-size wedding or party. Here is the estimated cost, how it scales with quantity and what is quoted separately.

What drives the final number
The chair itself is only part of the bill. A quote also depends on delivery distance in the Chicago area, whether setup and pickup are included, the day of the week, how many floors the crew carries chairs up, and any cushions, covers or sashes you add.
Our figure uses a per-chair estimate of $9–12. It is an estimate until pricing is final, not an offer.
How to lower the total
- Use the Bentwood Bistro Chair where guests see it most (reception or head table) and our teak garden folding chair ($5–7) for a ceremony. For 100 chairs the midpoint swing is about $450.
- Order to a confirmed count plus a small spare, not the full invite list.
- It does not stack, so allow extra setup time. Plan indoor or tented use.
Events that need about 100 chairs
These guest counts from our layout guides land close to 100 chairs once a spare allowance is added, so the figure above is a realistic budget for them:

At this size expect a truck delivery, a short setup crew and a need to agree load-in times with the venue.
