Wishbone Chair Rental Cost: 100 Chairs in Chicago

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 $14–18. It is an estimate until pricing is final, not an offer.

• Use the Wishbone 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 $1,000.
• 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.

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:

• Wedding reception, 100 guests: 104 chairs, $1,456 to $1,872
• Wedding ceremony, 100 guests: 103 chairs, $1,442 to $1,854
• Corporate dinner, 100 guests: 105 chairs, $1,470 to $1,890
• Gala or fundraiser, 100 guests: 104 chairs, $1,456 to $1,872
• Quinceañera, 100 guests: 105 chairs, $1,470 to $1,890
• Graduation party, 100 guests: 106 chairs, $1,484 to $1,908
• Bar or bat mitzvah, 100 guests: 105 chairs, $1,470 to $1,890
• Birthday party, 100 guests: 106 chairs, $1,484 to $1,908

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