Bargain
Buy your own red carpet, and have guests stroll in on a runner from the Red Carpet Store, which sells a 3- by 10-foot piece made of a basic pile for $75.
Mid-Price
Instead of sticking to the standard red, blue, or black carpets, consider an unusual color from Parties to Go. A 6- by 20-foot walkway rents for $270. The company also rents stanchions for $12 apiece, and velvet ropes at $8 each.
Splurge
Go for a black and white look with a checkered carpet from Miller’s Skytracker and Premiere Services. The carpet measures 6- by 16-feet and costs $350. To rent a skytracker for three hours, add on $495, plus a $275 permit charge.
