I didn't know that there were different sizes (other than regular and smaller)

Mine arrived today and they are actually a lot better than I was expecting (truth be told) They are UNBELIEVABLY light... lol... and ready for my decorating touch! (Still waiting on the flowers!)

I put a fan on each chair, but I know a lot of girls alternated fans and programs (assuming you aren't using the fan AS a program). Mostly the women used the fans, so I think your safe doing every other chair :)

When you say natural fans - do you mean wood fans?
