Brides Take a Cue from Parks and Cafes for Wedding Receptions with French Folding Chairs by American Country Home Store

May 05, 2007 — Featured in Brides' biggest issue of the year, February/March 2007, French bistro chairs from American Country Home Store set the scene for a bridal reception that guests will never forget. For an informal wedding reception, take a cue from parks and cafes and select casual French bistro chairs. Folding bistro chairs convey an outdoorsy charm, perfect for a kick-back couple and their crew. These popular French folding bistro chairs are found at cafés and parks, including Bryant Park in New York City, and they are a familiar sight on café terraces and in public gardens in France.

The French folding tables and chairs, created at the end of the 19th century, were a godsend for the terraces of the small cafes (know as bistros in French), that were flourishing everywhere at that time. This new style of furniture, practical and quickly put away, was all the more successful with the café owners which then is spared the rent for a fixed terrace. The Bistro folding chairs with two slats on the backrest and five slats on the seat and the Bistro folding tables with their crossed bases are the authentic replicas of their illustrious predecessors, with the added advantages given by modern technologies.

Enjoy a touch of Paris in a backyard with French Patio furniture imported by American Country Home Store. The basic folding chairs and tables, circa 1889, have been a favorite in France for over 100 years.
