Alice Bar

The Alice bar has a light wood tone—a stark contrast to the Collins bar. Its coloring and intricate lattice detail give it an airy and inviting look. We particularly enjoy using Alice in outdoor settings like gardens and meadows, though it can be a beautiful indoor piece too. It works year-round, but spring is when it truly shines.

Winter may not always bring us snow in the South, but that won’t stop us from creating our own winter wonderland! From gleaming white china to soft linens and cozy lounge furniture, an all-white winter event design is the perfect way to embrace the season’s elegance. So let’s dream up a snowy celebration that will leave your guests enchanted! We have the perfect rentals to fit the theme, from chairs to china to linens.

Dazzling White China

Dinnerware plays a crucial role in setting the tone for an event, signaling to guests the level of formality and style they’ll experience. At Southern, we have a wide variety of white china options to fit your eye-catching, all-white theme.

If your style is organic and bohemian, our Earthen Alabaster china is a beautiful choice. It leans more casual than some of our other dishware options, but the right linen pairing can certainly elevate it. It has a slightly off-white color and a matte finish—perfectly natural, grounded, and sophisticated.

If you prefer something a bit more regal, try our Darcy china. This dishware choice has a shinier finish and scalloped edges. Due to its beautiful Victorian shape, it fits in nicely with luxurious and formal decor.

Need something in between? Our White Coupe china is perfectly traditional, and it can work in just about any setting! It’s our most versatile china collection.

Always In Charge

After you’ve chosen the china for your event, add a charger! Our Darcy collection includes matching chargers. We also have a stunning, simple porcelain charger that works well with a variety of china patterns. Finally, if you want to add a little extra sparkle to your decor, try our Silver Round Lacquer charger. We know it’s silver, not white, but we won’t tell if you don’t! A little bit of glimmer can never hurt, and it’ll make the white dishes pop.

Elegant White Linens

Next, let’s add some white linens to the mix. For our more bohemian brides and hosts, we recommend a textured Havana linen or a gathered Sahara runner. For our more opulent brides and hosts, we recommend a white satin or velvet. We even have some textured options like pindot, shimmer, or etched linens.

Stylish White Chairs

Your choice of chairs also plays a huge role in your celebration’s overall aesthetic. We offer a few different white chairs, but consider the venue and backdrop when making your selection. Our white Bentwood chairs are stunning, but they give a rustic, antique vibe. Contrast that with our white Chiavari chairs, which look more lavish and sleek. If neither of these jumps out at you, try a ghost chair! Our see-through acrylic options like the Carrigan chair blend right into the background of your space.

If you want to create a spot for lounging and mingling, we have a couple of lovely, on-theme lounge sofas to choose from. Explore our Estelle, Everly, and Sloan styles—all are equally soft and fashionable, so you can’t go wrong!

Seating That Says “Welcome Home”

Seating is a key element of any indoor wedding, often occupying a significant portion of the space. The right chairs do more than provide comfort—they help set the mood for your entire ceremony.

Our Harlin and Adeline Dining Chairs offer a sense of homeliness, making your celebration feel like an extension of your living room.

Aisle Decor That Steals the Show

Transform your aisle into a picturesque pathway with indoor wedding decorations that add warmth and visual interest. Layered vintage rugs in subtle hues can soften the look of cold concrete or hardwood floors to create a plush and inviting walkway. Alternatively, keep the aisle clear and use a rug to frame the altar area, making it the focal point of your ceremony. Enhance the entrance to your aisle with whiskey barrels adorned with large floral arrangements that cascade elegantly onto the floor. For a backdrop, a wooden cross or our white Fiona Mantle can set a charming scene. And if your ceremony is on the longer side, provide a cozy spot for the bride and groom to relax. Perhaps a pair of velvet armchairs, such as the Clover Velvet in rich emerald or the Saylor Navy Velvet.

Details that Wow

The details are what make your indoor ceremony truly memorable. Consider adding a touch of luxury with a champagne display! A grab-and-go station set up with one of our stylish bookshelves and elegant glassware will leave your guests impressed and talking long after the event. For a seasonal twist, you might also set up a coffee or cocoa station featuring a market cart. A little something that encourages guests to mingle while they wait for the ceremony to start. And don’t forget the fun factor—our nostalgic popcorn machine can serve up gourmet popcorn. Consider festive flavors like white chocolate and peppermint flakes or mixed with red and green M&Ms.

As the crisp autumn air settles in and the leaves begin to turn shades of gold, CJ’s Off the Square in Franklin, Tennessee, becomes a magical setting for an intimate fall wedding. One such celebration, styled in rich tones of emerald and amber, perfectly captured the season’s essence. From a romantic garden ceremony to a cozy reception, every detail was thoughtfully curated with pieces from Southern Event Rental.

A Cozy Bohemian Garden Ceremony

The newlyweds exchanged vows on the patio beneath a floral arch constructed with lush greenery and bold florals. Guests sat in our classic fruitwood folding chairs, offering a rustic touch. For an equally stunning alternative, our wood cross-back chairs would have been an excellent option. The aisle was thoughtfully decorated with a collection of layered vintage rugs. Each one lent its own charm and texture to the scene, along with a splash of color. The result? A ceremony that felt as intimate and personal as it was beautiful.

Bourbon Tasting & Cozy Lounges

As the ceremony concluded, guests were invited to a cocktail hour that featured two distinctly styled bar areas. The first showcased our elegant Thompson White Bar, dressed up with a custom banner bar sign. Signature cocktails were served up in a mix of colorful beaded tumblers and our crystal Moncaco glassware—perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to every sip.

Eclectic Elegance in Emerald and Amber

With round tables dressed in luxurious emerald velvet linens that contrasted beautifully with our bare fruitwood banquet tables. Meanwhile, textured bohemian-inspired centerpieces added depth and interest.

Kacy and Michael’s luxury Nashville wedding was a celebration of style and sophistication, beginning with an elegant rehearsal dinner at the Hermitage Nashville and culminating in a stunning reception at the Nashville Public Library. From the custom champagne tower to the literary-themed reception, every detail was thoughtfully curated to reflect the couple’s unique taste. With the help of Southern Events, their vision came to life through carefully selected rentals that added an extra touch of luxury and charm to their unforgettable celebration.

Sipping in Style

While the pair didn’t host a hotel wedding, the Hermitage Nashville was an idyllic backdrop for their sophisticated rehearsal dinner. The celebration started with an elegant cocktail hour, where guests gathered around our 6-foot Thompson White Bar, elevated with a custom bar menu on a banner. The real star of the show however was the champagne tower. It featured Gatsby Coupe Glasses filled with champagne and edible flowers, delicately stacked atop the Chelsea Marble Top Bar. To keep guests comfortable, tables in blue patterned linens and wood Harlin Dining Chairs were placed nearby.

A Refined Rehearsal Dinner

In addition to fun spring-inspired cocktails, Kacy and Michael’s guests enjoyed a catered dinner in the Veranda. It was a stunning backdrop, with the floor-to-ceiling cathedral windows and a ceiling painted to look like blue cloud-filled skies. Here, a single banquet table was outfitted in ivory linens, contrasted by classic black Chiavari Chairs with white padding. Place settings were simple, featuring White Coupe China, Bradley Flatware, and Pure Glassware. While fresh flowers and bright blue menus provided a romantic splash of color.

Dinner & Dancing Among the Stacks

The couple’s ceremony took place in the lobby of the Nashville Public Library. Afterward, the wedding reception was hosted in the Grand Reading Room. Guests spent an evening in elegance with a dash of scholarly charm, surrounded by rich wood paneling and shelves filled with literary classics. The wedding party sat at a long banquet table and guests at round. The crisp white table linens offered a sleek look in contrast to the cozy wood Cross-Back Chairs. Set against our luxurious Ophelia China and Austin Gold Flatware, soft blue linens were a fun splash of color.

Following dinner, guests were treated to the wedding cake. It was perched beautifully atop a table draped in our soft blue-hued Somerset Linens. A Full Oval Bar was close by, the perfect size to accommodate the newlywed’s large guest count. Meanwhile, a black and white dance floor in combination with the vaulted ceilings offered the illusion of a luxurious ballroom wedding. A custom stage with white podiums lined with florals made for an elegant backdrop, in addition to housing the live band.
