Hi, I'm not sure if this is in the right place or not, but I am looking for 5 large black golf umbrellas. I want them for weddings for when it's raining. I don't want anything printed on them, and I only want 5-6. Also, I'm in Canada, so if you have a Canadian supplier, that would be great. I've been trying google, but everything I find they want to put printing on them, and even if you don't want the printing you have to take a minimum of 25 or something like that. Any help that anyone could offer would be great. I've tried Wal-Mart and that kind of thing, but they only have normal little umbrellas, and any sports stores that have the big umbrellas have a sports symbol of some sort across them.
Thanks for your help,
Heather

I don't precisely know how big a golf umbrella is, but I got a larger black one at Target. I know Johnny uses a bunch, too, so he may have some other suggestion.

Oddly enough, I found them at hh greg (electronics like circuit city or best buy). Usually 4.99 but they go on sale for 2.99. We take them to every wedding whether it looks like we need them or not.

Thanks for your help and suggestions everyone. I'll having to do some more looking around.
Thanks again.
And surprisingly enough, our dollar isn't too bad right now, which makes it nice for some little shopping trips!!

Hey Heather...where exactly are you located? Vancouver has a great vendor for umbrellas...www.theumbrellashop.com. I've bought a couple of big black umbrellas there as well as a nice big white one. They have a huge selection and you can also get them custom made. Check them out!
Cheers,
cj

me too! they ward off the rain!! (usually)

NOTE:
we use small umbrellas. i, too. looked for the golf-size. WAAAAAAAAY too big in photos. they take over! and difficult for people to handle with flowers and dresses, if it's really raining.
here's a wedding with the little ones - worked well. it rained ALL day annd night!!
just my $0.02.

Thanks for your opinion Robin, I will maybe do a little more investigating.
