Matting Photos

I am providing the artwork for the public area of a new hotel in our town. I will have 15-25 8x10 sepia toned photos. I would like to mat them in 16x20 mats. Any suggestions on where to get matting supplies. Is there a good online source.
Also, the frames are pretty plain, leather-looking, black. I think I will mat all in white. Do you agree?
I will attach one of the images.
Thanks for the help.
Vicki

  Vickie-

I am a fan of simple balck framing and white matting. I too have this same thing coming up soon for me for a restuarant, and probably will do the same white amtting black frame. 8x10 in a 16x20 matt is good. If I get anything framed in my house of my own personal stuff, I do it the same way. Black and white goes with most interiors and won't need to be switched out, just check wth the client and see what their needs are as well. As far as matting suplies check with local art suply stores in your area.
