I'm a wedding photographer and I ordered a set of these (the clear set) based off of another photographer's recommendation. I've only had to use them at 1 rainy wedding, so I can't fully rate them on their durability, but they seem solid and will hold up well. They are very reasonably priced, so even if they do break over time, it's not a big deal to order a few more... but again I don't really think that will be an issue. They're spring loaded too, so when you push the release button, they instantly pop open for quick access. What makes them great for photography is that the clear umbrellas still allow plenty of light on each person holding the umbrella which significantly improves the photo as opposed to a solid color umbrella. They are also wider which can allow for bridal party members to share one or the bride and groom to share one, as opposed to the more "dome" shaped clear umbrellas out there. Those are cute, but not super practical when photographing a whole bridal party. Overall, highly recommend for anyone that wants to be extra prepared on their wedding day... or these are a MUST if you're a wedding photographer. You'll be happy you have them for a rainy wedding and more importantly your client will LOVE you for coming prepared. Read more
We haven’t used this yet as the wedding is two-months away. But, just having these has relieved outdoor wedding anxiety. They are quite nice, seem sturdy and all of them worked. They have a nice spread that should provide ample protection. The clear canopy is beautiful too. Glad we found these and can check one more thing off the list. Read more
I ordered 2 dozen of Liberty white umbrellas for my daughters wedding as that day was expected to be clear and 94 degrees out in the mountains. Everyone was so happy to use them to keep from getting sunburned. Not one umbrella failed. They all did their job. The umbrellas are not the quality for daily use but perfect for our day. After the wedding a few of the ladies were going to take them home and paint them for decorative use. Read more
These worked great for what I needed. I added ribbons to turn these into jellyfish for a musical. Bonus, we turned on black lights on the stage for a really cool effect! One did break before the show, but I suppose it was bound to happen when working with middle schoolers. Read more
I purchased these for a backup on my wedding day in case it rained on the guests. These are lovely, decently durable, and I'm very happy with them. It's been almost one year and the ones that I still have work well and haven't had any issues with the automatic open mechanism or other malfunctions you might expect from other umbrellas. Read more
We ordered these because the forecast for our wedding day called for rain. We did get some rain during our rehearsal the morning of and these came in handy. They were really great quality and definitely served their purpose. We ended up leaving them with our venue in the event that another wedding party needs them because we don't need 12 umbrellas.

These sub and decorate well. Read more
I ordered these umbrellas fully expecting them to be flimsy and prone to breaking. I was pleasantly surprised when I inspected them and found they are all impressively sturdy, more so than many you can buy individually at a store. Read more
