About Southern Events

Southern Events is a full-service event rental company based in Franklin, Tennessee, serving greater Middle Tennessee, including Nashville, Brentwood, Murfreesboro, Leiper’s Fork, and Spring Hill. For over 20 years, we’ve provided rentals, delivery, on-site installation, and breakdown for weddings, corporate events, and social gatherings of all sizes.

We’ve been part of a lot of events over the years, and we know what matters most. Rentals should arrive on time, be in excellent condition, and be handled with care. Our role is to make sure that everything is in place so you can focus on your guests and the experience you’re creating.

The Southern Approach to Event Rentals

Every event looks a little different, but the expectations are always the same. Things should run smoothly, feel well thought out, and be ready when guests arrive.

That’s where we come in. Our team focuses on the details behind the scenes, from confirming quantities to coordinating delivery and on-site installation. We take the time to make sure everything is accounted for and placed correctly so your rentals are ready when they need to be. Whether you’re hosting at a private home, a venue, or a large-scale facility, we adjust to your space, your timeline, and the flow of your event so everything comes together as it should.

Good events start with the right pieces.

Southern Events helped me with a large fundraising event and they crushed it!! There were lots of changes and tweaks along the way and they were so gracious about it. The delivery was on time and so efficient. I could not recommend them more!

A Local Team with Deep Roots

Southern Events began in a garage and has grown steadily alongside other businesses in the local event industry. Over time, those shared experiences have turned into strong, lasting relationships with venues, planners, and organizations across the area.

Today, our team includes nearly fifty full- and part-time staff who play a role in everything from warehouse operations to on-site installation. That growth hasn’t changed our approach. We remain deeply committed to our clients, their events, and the people behind them.

Many of the relationships we’ve built over the years continue today, with clients returning for multiple events and milestones. Being a small part of those moments is something we value, and it continues to shape how we show up for every event.

Meet the Team

Behind every delivery and installation is a team that understands the pace and precision required for events. Our staff is experienced, responsive, and committed to making sure your rentals are handled with care.
