Southern Events recently took part in an Open House at City Winery, and we love how our gorgeous rentals shine at this venue. We used a combination of gold, neutral, and blush to create a luxe feel. Add to that beautiful color combination modern materials like our Acrylic Chairs, Midas Gold Bench, and Gold Furrow Linen, and it was definitely swoon-worthy.

We absolutely adore all the possibilities available at City Winery. Whether you’re going full-on “honky-tonk” or wanting a feminine and modern look, you can make it all happen here.

A waterfall. 138 acres of a reclaimed rock quarry. Forest and meadow. Streams and ponds. Limestone cliff walls. We aren’t talking about some magical land in a Disney movie. We are talking about a real-life wedding venue in Nashville–Graystone Quarry.

Modern romance was the vision for our inspiration style shoot at the breathtaking Estate at Cherokee Dock in Nashville, TN. The shoot featured a dreamy pink, white and gold color palette as ee partnered with the wedding planning team from It Takes Two. Pairing romantic vintage rentals with sleek, modern rentals to create this look, we’re in love with the results!

White draping under a gorgeous magnolia tree on the estate provided the perfect canvas for a romantic outdoor affair. For our garden dining area, we paired vintage inspired Adeline Dining Chairs with Ivory Luxe Linens for texture and romantic style. Our table setting included our elegant Gatsby Champagne Coupe, Madison Glassware, and charming Darcy China combined with metallic modern accents. Our gold Austin Flatware, Vera Floral Gold Accent Dessert Plate, and Medallion Gold Glass Charger provided just enough sparkle while a beautiful floral centerpiece by Petals and Fields tied everything together.

For the ceremony, Acrylic Ghost Chairs provided an unexpected touch of modern style to the ceremony, completing the marriage modern and romantic. A few of our favorite vintage pieces, including our Vintage Harper Couch and Leona Coffee Table, were used to create intimate lounge area while our Acrylic Rectangle Containers tied back to the other modern touches.

The fabulous cake by Lillian Lane Bakery was displayed on an elegant White Chiffon Runner over our Isabel Oval Table, and surrounded the gorgeous confection with candlelight, set off in our Davis Glass Cylinders. So much to love!

Thank you to Kenzie Hammock of Honey Bee Tennessee for capturing every detail, and Estate at Cherokee Dock for having us! Such a magical day – if you’re looking to recreate this Modern Romance style shoot with vintage and modern event rentals, reach out to info@southerneventsonline.com for more details.

We had the most amazing time at City Winery Nashville‘s Open House, where our distinct wedding rentals helped redefine the unique downtown Nashville wedding space. We love coming here and how our different rentals can change the space – check out the previous open house we partnered on at City Winery! This time, our team mixed modern elements with rustic foundations and some of our newest rentals creating a jaw-dropping design for weddings and couples.

Upstairs, our Adeline Dining Chairs were displayed with City Winery’s large family style table. The rustic vibe of the wooden furniture was accented beautifully by modern place settings, including the Pure Glassware, Rouge Round Chargers, and Earthen China in Alabaster and Stone. As a centerpiece, votive candles and garland were placed in our new Acrylic Rectangle Container.

A lounge area was designed with two Santorini Sofas and Winstead Grey Tufted Bench atop the new Cow Hide Rug. It was all situated beautifully beneath the stunning chandelier as a great informal area for guests to chit-chat.

In the large concert area, we set-up additional tablescapes using our loved Harlin Dining Chairs as guest seating. Ghost Chairs, Charcoal Satin Linen, and Gold Metal Intersect Cubes decorated round tables beneath more beautiful chandeliers. On stage, we debuted our new Gray and Blush Area Rug with a Grayson Farm Table, Gold Metal Intersect Cubes, and Belmont Glass Beaded Chargers.

Just outside the bar area, another lounge area featuring modern wedding rentals with our Metallic Cow Hide Rug was on display. Mercer Leather Couches, Mercer White Ottomans, Silver Throw Pillows and our new Cheval Gold Side Tables were styled together for a modern and chic design.

Thanks so much to EntertainTn and Twila Photography for sharing these amazing photos with us, and to City Winery for having us again! We can’t wait for all the events to come this year!

Nashville & Franklin offer an endless number of stunning event & wedding venues – from classic to unique, or grand to intimate, there’s a perfect location for whatever event or wedding you are hosting. We’re excited to feature some of our favorite local partners, starting with a gorgeous outdoor garden wedding venue that is exquisitely Southern.

CJ’s Off the Square is a gorgeous garden wedding venue located in the heart of downtown Franklin, TN. Boasting an intimate property and charming garden, we love that it’s an all-inclusive venue with sweet and historic charm that lends itself to any couple’s style while being effortlessly romantic, no matter the season.

More Than a Garden

CJ’s Off the Square is known for its magical garden but has so much more to offer. The property features a historic house, including a gorgeous bridal suite and wine cellar, and an outdoor covered event pavilion that looks over the garden.

The Event Pavilion keeps guests cool under the shade, or warm next to heaters while still being surrounded by the greenery of the garden. Plus, it allows for a convenient built-in rain plan. We also love that the entire venue boasts neutral colors, meaning it is a blank canvas for whatever classic, whimsical, or modern style couples dream up.

Intimate Setting

With space to accommodate events of up to 135 people, CJ’s Off the Square is perfect for couples looking for an intimate celebration, rich in details and full of love (the kind where you can chat with each and every one of your guests). While the garden is a romantic spot for your ceremony, it can be transformed with lounge seating for the reception, maintaining the intimate vibe throughout your event.  The historic home also offers additional space where you and your new husband or wife can escape to for a few stolen kisses.

Pet-Friendly

We love how couples are incorporating their fur-babies into their wedding celebrations and CJ’s Off the Square allows pups to join in on the fun! Dogs are allowed during the ceremony at this pet-friendly venue which is perfect seeing that they make adorable ring bearers! Learn more about including your pet in your wedding on their blog.

Wedding Planner Included

Most importantly, we love that wedding packages at CJ’s Off the Square come with a personal planner to help couples coordinate their dream wedding day. The team CJ’s Off the Square are there to help couples with their design, budget, and logistics to ensure your day flows beautifully while letting your personalities to really shine through. Already have your own planner? Not a problem! Their team is also more than happy to collaborate with other planners and event designers.

We’re proud to partner with CJ’s Off the Square to help couples design beautiful wedding days. Our rentals help customize the space while still being surrounded by a romantic Southern garden. Interested in learning more? Visit their website for package and pricing information.

Shannon and Tom are two wonderful New Yorkers who wanted to throw a larger-than-life Southern picnic wedding. Their whimsical day was held at Green Door Gourmet, a working farm in West Nashville. For the ceremony, family and friends were invited to have a seat in our White Folding Chairs while the newlyweds exchanged vows under the Cedar Arbor. Guests were then treated to a cocktail hour with our Bistro Tables draped and tied with a Slate Poly linen.

For the reception, this grand soiree with a large guest list took advantage of the duel-level barn seating with round tables upstairs and rectangular tables on the main level. The Slate Blue was carried into the reception, accented by a Red and White Check Napkin, creating a whimsical nod to the farm venue. The newlyweds sat amongst their guests in Cross-Back Chairs and enjoyed their first meal as Mr. and Mrs. with our Cameron Flatware.

Thanks to the ladies at Modern Vintage Events for pulling all the fun details together. The wedding design delighted not only the newlyweds and their guests, as Shannon and Tom’s big day was featured on Style Me Pretty! Such a fun and upscale take on a farm wedding. Thanks to Cassidy Carson for the stunning photos!

We are always so excited to be a part of A Very Marry Occasion, where Nashville’s top wedding vendors come together for a truly stunning style showcase. The theme was Organic Luxe and CJ’s Off the Square was the perfect venue – the outdoor garden space lends itself perfectly to being both organic and luxe with ease! Here’s how we made it all happen:

Cross-back Chairs in natural wood were paired with the Grayson Farm Tables for a stunning dining design. To add more luxe, our Hob Nob Glassware collection was on full display with both the water goblet and the wine glass giving a vintage vibe without being too whimsical. All this combined with our Abby Fine Silver flatware and a gorgeous Mediterranean Satin Linen made for a stunning styled tablescape, only to be enhanced even more by the stunning floral centerpieces by Enchanted Florist – swoon!

To mix up the seating arrangements, our 65″ Round Farm Table was incorporated into the floor plan, opposite of the sweetheart table. Speaking of the sweetheart table, a mini White-Wash Farm Table was used with our Tessa Tufted Loveseat – the perfect way for a bride and groom to enjoy their first married meal together. Our feminine Darcy Bone China next to the Hob Knob glassware and Gatsby Champagne Coupe were the perfect touches to the tablescape, adding more elegance to an already luxe design.

In the garden area, we incorporated the Farm Style Bistro Tables for easy but stylish mingling. We love when couples opt to keep the decor all in the family – the various farm style tables are beautiful together, yet purposefully unique enough to not look too uniform.

Also in the garden, we made sure to provide comfortable outdoor seating by bringing in our Sutton Furniture Collection. The Mediterranean color was the perfect way to tie in those blue linens on the dining table, keeping every part of the decor and theme beautifully cohesive. The Enchanted Florist helped elevate our rentals again by placing thoughtful low arrangements on the furniture, bringing out the colors of the gorgeous garden and the Organic Luxe theme itself.

Thank you so much to Phindy Studios for the photos! It was a very marry occasion, indeed.

Thank you to all the vendors involved! We love working with each one of you. Wolfe Gourmet Cakes, CJ’s Off the Square, Enchanted Florist, McConnell Hospitality Group, Phindy Studios Photography, and Premier Entertainment Company.

New Nashville Event Space! Beech Grove Historic Venue

Earlier this spring, we teamed up with a great group of Nashville event vendors to “break in the barn” at Beech Grove Historic Venue, a new event venue in west Nashville. The property features a preserved 1850’s barn, large meadows surrounded by mature trees and even a white horse!

For their open house wedding planner Laurie D’Anne Events gave the space a chic design including draping from Visual Elements and lighting by Bright Event Productions. Our London, York and Tessa Loveseats were used to create a comfy outdoor ceremony space in front of the dramatic barn.  The stylish look continued inside with our Ghost Dining Chairs (paired with the Grayson Farm Table), our Ghost Barstools (perfectly paired with our Remington Gunmetal Bistro Tables) and a star-lite lounge (featuring our Urban Bench, Urban Drum Coffee Table and Rhapsody in Blue Side Chairs). The finished look was stunning!

Beech Grove is a fairytale venue for any couple and we look forward to being part of the many events they will host!  Thanks to Details Nashville for sharing their great photos.

We were happy to provide the rentals for TWESA‘s June meeting, held at the historic Travellers Rest Plantation! It was a lovely event on a beautiful late spring evening, and we had a chance to debut some of our newest items, including our White Franklin Bar and Sutton Furniture! With our Aruba Triple Stitch Pintuck Linens, the event had a breezy summertime-chic vibe. Our White-Washed Farm Tables displayed delicious refreshments for guests to enjoy. Those big ol’ magnolia blossoms were a sweet southern final touch!

We had the pleasure of teaming up with Twila’s Photography at the Wren’s Nest for this sweet style shoot! This design is full of demure details, inspired by the South’s summer blackberries and soft cotton. The table scape was created using our Heirloom China with our Belmont Chargers, Austin Gold Flatware, and Madison Glassware, atop our Fruitwood Farm Table, paired with our Provence Cathedral Chairs. The lovely floral centerpiece by Basil & Bergamot Flower Farm completed the lovely southern boho look. Don’t miss the feature on Two Bright Lights!
