Nothing is quite as invigorating as a bright spring gathering after a long and dreary winter. As nature springs back to life consider hosting a casual outdoor party. Whether it is a simple backyard dinner or a semi-formal cocktail hour, light bites, refreshing beverages, and good company are exactly what the doctor calls for! Get inspired by our most popular spring event design ideas, featuring our pastel event rentals. From chic linens and elegant serving ware to dreamy lounge areas, we have everything you need to host a sunny spring soiree.

Sleek & Chic Serving Pieces

Is it just us or does a well-thought-out place setting make for an extra charming table? Modern chic event design calls for a bright palette featuring crisp serving ware with a splash of color. Start with simple china, such as the Classic Round or dainty Darcy, and for a more muted white, consider Alabaster Earthen China. You can add texture with our Elegant Rattan White Wash Charger or Scalloped Wood Charger – paired with pastel linens, you’ll achieve an elegant table. If you would like a little more color, swap the white china out for brighter plates – perhaps the Coronado, Laguna, or Veral Floral China. Choosing flatware is simple. Just select a polished, matte, or brushed finish.

Fancy Glassware + Drink Displays

One of our favorite spring event ideas is signature drinks. And we have a variety of gorgeous glassware that will elevate any cocktail (or mocktail)! Popular choices include Cybil Wine Glass, Monaco Rock Glass, and Pure Water Glass. Our Franklin 4 Ft Antique White Bar is a classic choice for a small gathering. Use it to display your favorite alcohol and mixers. Or feature batch cocktails placed atop our Rattan Beverage Jar Stand. If you need additional display pieces, take a look at our White 6-Tier Serving Tower or White Bookcase.

Bright Linens

Linens are one of the most effective ways to incorporate color into your event table. And we have a huge array of pastel event rentals to help you create a spring-inspired tablescape! From subtle blue and purple hues to sunny yellows and greens. You can add as many colors or shades of color as you like by mixing and matching tablecloths and napkins.

Create a trendy monochromatic look by pairing our Peaches n’ Cream Poly Linens with Coral Velvet Napkins, or pair classic colors with a buttery texture when you combine our Fern Velvet Tablecloth with Navy Blue Velvet Napkins. Other gorgeous choices include Lilac Poly, Honey Poly, and Light Blue Pindot. If you prefer muted pastels, be sure to consider our Kennedy Collection.

Sunny Outdoor Event Lounges

Is there any better way to enjoy the outdoors than a sunny lounge area? Having at least one, if not several, will encourage your guests to cozy up and hang out – hopefully with a cocktail in hand! Start with a stylish sofa that will stand out against nature. Such as the Everly or Bennett Leather Sofa. Then consider armchairs, like our always popular Gloria Velvet. Or sub in dining chairs for an extra-chic look, whether it be the Harlin or Adeline chairs.

You will also want a set of accent tables, which can be a great way to add in metallics – like the Gold Hammered or Cheval Gold Mirror Side Tables. One of the most underrated spring event rentals is our stylish rugs, which will help frame lounge furniture placed on a lawn or gravel – to make the space extra cozy you can also feature a mix of poufs and ottomans.

Vintage rugs are a fun and cozy touch, especially when paired with a mix of poufs. Say our Chocolate or Turkish Rug Ottomans. Serve light bites, like finger sandwiches and hand-held desserts, on Willow Pedestal Cake Stands or Silver Trays. Lend to the cutesy vintage vibe when you feature place settings made of Heirloom China and Tea Cups. Complete the fantasy with a Silver Tea Server and sugar bowls!

Retro event design is getting lots of love, especially among brides and grooms. And what’s not to love about the vibrant color schemes, modern retro furniture, and nostalgia-inducing decorations? Even better, this theme can encompass a variety of styles. Whether you prefer a minimalist look, a bright whimsical vibe, or a dark and moody design. Check out some ceremony and reception ideas that can be used to host a colorful retro wedding, featuring our stylish event rentals.

Retro-Inspired Wedding Ceremony

Planning a retro-inspired wedding ceremony is easy with our on-trend seating and decor. Pick from a variety of chairs, such as our Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs or Acrylic Ghost Arm Chairs. Our Black Resin Folding Chairs are a classic choice for a moody retro vibe. One of our favorite retro wedding ideas is the use of layered rugs to decorate the aisle way. Use a mix of cowhide or vintage rugs, depending on whether your theme leans toward modern or bohemian.

Colorful Retro Reception Tables

A retro wedding calls for bold trendy tablescapes! We have countless pieces of serving ware and luxe linens that can be used to create colorful retro reception tables. Whether you are running with a cool or warm-toned palette, or a minimalist or maximalist design. Should you prefer a bold luxe look, start with a vibrant tablecloth in a rich Magnolia or Coral. Pull off an alternative look by stacking colorful serving ware on top of Black Velvet Linens. For a warm metallic table, stack our Darcy China and Kate Polka Dot China. Pair it with Amber Goblets and Austin Flatware to round out the look. Use runners for a layered maximalist design, or keep the look simple yet luxe with vibrant napkins. Or use mismatched napkins in retro tones, placed atop Earthen Alabaster China, for a whimsical touch!

A Retro Chic-Cocktail Hour

Planning to host a cocktail hour on the big day? Colorful wedding rentals are our favorite, and that’s exactly what a retro-chic cocktail hour calls for! Check out our cozy sofas, such as the Fern Velvet Sofa, Jacqueline Sofa, and Saylor Navy Velvet Sofa. Pair them with a set of trendy armchairs or ottomans, like the Gloria Velvet Armchair or a Turkish Rug Ottoman. Especially popular are the White Eiffel Arm Chairs – a design straight from the ’50s. Or grab the Regent Black Velvet Sofa and a set of acrylic chairs for a moody look. If you need more social areas, set up cocktail tables outfitted with bright linens and our Midcentury Barstools in White or Black.

P.S. Be sure to stock your bar to match! Rent a selection of trendy glassware, including our Cybil Champagne Flutes, Gatsby Champagne Coupes, and Davis Hi-Ball Glasses.

Luxe Linens in Every Shade

Linens are undoubtedly our favorite way to feature color at a holiday event. And for the holidays the options are endless! If you’re looking for linens to complement your modern vintage rentals, consider those that feature a subtle pattern. Our Ivory Pearl Shalimar and Victoria Gold Luxe Linens ooze luxury and would complement any neutral-colored place setting. Meanwhile, a solid shade will look gorgeous with more intricate serving ware. Such as our Scarlet Red Velvet or Magnolia Green Velvet Linens. As always, don’t forget napkins! Contrast a bold or patterned tablecloth with classic white or ivory napkins.

Vintage-Inspired Servingware

There is a charm to vintage-inspired serving ware that is perfect for the holidays! It lends a subtle sense of nostalgia that also happens to perfectly suit a modern vintage theme. Our inventory of servingware includes a range of pieces that can be used to create a stylish holiday tablescape. Either for a casual at-home soiree or for a formal corporate gathering.

To achieve this look you want to find a balance between simple pieces and those with ornate details. For example, pair plain White Round China with a Gold Rim Glass Charger and Abby Flatware. Or, feature a White Round Porcelain Charger with our ornate Ophelia China and modern Gold Austin Flatware. Choosing glassware is especially fun, with options like our Audrey Gold Rim, Monaco, and Pure Glassware.

Cozy Holiday Lounge Areas

Lounging is what you do at holiday parties. Whether you’re in a post-feast coma or simply need somewhere to sit and sip on a tasty seasonal cocktail. We have the perfect modern vintage rentals to create a stunning seating setup, whether you prefer a set of sofas or an armchair or two. Start with a rug featuring a vintage design to frame the space, adding a touch of warmth. Then choose your seating, such as our Fern Velvet and Bennett Leather Sofa. Either of these are stunning with our Bamboo Arm Chairs or White Eiffel Arm Chairs. Finish the look with a set of Gold Hammered Coffee Tables, where guests can set their drinks and appetizers.

Team Southern recently had the opportunity to collaborate with local vendors on a whimsical styled shoot at The Cordelle. An event venue & garden situated in Downtown Nashville, it was a stunning backdrop for the colorful outdoor wedding. With a mix of historic and modern spaces, featuring grandeur and charm, there was no shortage of room to create a functional and on-trend wedding layout. Check out the details from this dreamy garden-inspired wedding, featuring our stylish event rentals.

Seating for a Whimsical Indoor Ceremony

The ceremony took place in The Victorian, featuring brick walls, hardwood floors, and beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows. Contrasting the urban event space, we opted for our elegant Harlin Dining Chairs. Featuring light wood and detailed backs, they were the perfect choice for the dreamy indoor ceremony. An equally gorgeous alternative would have been our Adeline Dining Chairs! While we decided to keep the aisle bare, featuring a mix of our vintage rugs would have also been a beautiful choice, lending a cozy vibe.

A Dreamy Outdoor Reception Set Up

Meanwhile, the 5,000-square-foot Garden Lawn created an ethereal garden reception. The manicured lawn and bistro lights overhead made for a charming outdoor setup – especially come nightfall. Our Fruitwood Farm Tables and Harlin Dining Chairs were the base for the guest tables. This banquet style is perfect if you want a more intimate feel! Set with Heirloom China, Hob Nob Glassware, and Sophia Flatware, the look was elegant and vintage-inspired. Fun fresh florals and Turqouise Poly Napkins provided a punch of color, fitting for the season! Our Davis Glass Cylinders filled in the table centerpieces.

Blue-Hued Wedding Lounge

Eventually, The Victorian was flipped into a cozy cocktail area. Contrasting the warm-toned space, we chose our always popular Saylor Navy Velvet Sofa and Chair. It paired beautifully with a bright Aqua Rug and modern Rhodes Coffee Table. To optimize the space were a handful of cocktail tables – dressed up with deep black linen. Combining with the whimsical florals, it was a perfect cocktail hour set up for the colorful garden wedding.

On-Theme Wedding Cocktails

To match the colorful event design, equally bold wedding cocktails were required! J Jackson Mobile Mixologist served up a variety of delicious colorful cocktails in our Davis and Coupe Glasses. We chose these pieces for their clean shape, contrasting the vintage-inspired Hob Nob Glassware used at each table. We also loved the fun colors of the beverages as well as edible florals!

Sometimes less is more, and modern minimalist events prove just that! There is beauty to be found in simplicity, not to mention it often comes with a smaller decor budget. Less cluttered, modern minimalism can make it feel easier to breathe within your event space, without compromising style. Learn how to host a modern minimalist event when you take a look at our in-stock rentals that will lend a clean and timeless look.

Clean Tablescapes

To achieve a modern minimalist table, you’ll want to keep any decor simple and maintain as much open space as possible – perhaps stick to greenery! As for serving ware, opt for pieces that are sleek. Such as our Earthen China, available in 3 neutral colors, or Plain Glass China. Easily feature an elegant pop of metallics with our simple Austin Gold or Noir Matte Black Flatware. For a romantic minimalist table, feature a touch of color in your otherwise neutral palette with a set of our poly napkins. Perhaps in Ice Pink, Slate, or Lilac! Or, grab a velvet set for subtle texture.

Stylish Guest Seating

Of course, your dinner tables will need chairs, of which we have many to choose from. For a modern event design, we recommend sticking to pieces that feature neutral colors and simple details. Any of our acrylic chairs are a great option, which will lend a unique contemporary look to your event. Both our Acrylic Ghost Arm Chairs and Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs are a popular choice! For a slightly more romantic vibe, or to complement a warm-toned palette, you might opt for our Harlin Dining Chairs.

As always, every event needs a lounge to socialize. And one of our personal favorites are modern minimalist event lounges, starring clean & elegant furniture. We have a wide selection of timeless pieces that you can mix and match to create a one-of-a-kind social area. To start, choose a plush sofa, like our Regent Black Velvet Sofa – perfect for a moody minimalist lounge! Then, add-on chairs, such as one of our acrylic pieces or our unique White Eiffel Arm Chairs. And don’t forget to include areas for guests to set their drinks! We’re currently favoring our Rhodes, Rivet and Granger accent tables, with their sleek legs.

Plus, planning a formal event is easier than ever, thanks to our elegant in-stock event rentals. Check out our serving ware, furniture, and decor that can be used to elevate your tablescape and impress your dinner guests!

Elegant Serving Ware

Black tie event design is all about luxury! For the table, we offer a range of stylish serving ware that suits any palette and style. White China is always a good start, whether you prefer Round plates or a more charming design, like Darcy. For a more moody table, opt for Earthen Onyx or Stone China. And should you prefer a more glam look, check out pieces that feature metallics. Such as our Glass Charger with a Gold Rim or Medallion Gold Glass Charger. If you want a touch of color, take a look at our gold accented Laguna or Coronado China.

Just don’t forget to grab matching flatware! Our Gold Austin and Abby Flatware are always popular. Meanwhile, the Noir Matte Black and Como Flatware are edgy yet stylish.

Luxe Seating

Although your own dining chairs will do just fine, swapping your seating for a special evening can make a big impact. It also makes for more cohesive black-tie dinner parties! We offer a variety of stylish seating options, from more traditional designs to unique contemporary pieces. Our Harlin Dining Chairs are ideal for luxe Southern-inspired gatherings, as our the Adeline Chairs. Whereas the Acrylic Carrigan Side Chairs offer a more modern but equally formal look!

Hosting a black-tie wedding or black-tie corporate event? Don’t fret! We have plenty of seating in stock for small parties as well as large gatherings.

The ‘Wow’ Factor

While most black-tie event themes entail neutral palettes and elegant serving ware, we love a ‘wow’ factor. In fact, we encourage it! Little details that will have guests talking, snapping pics, and admiring the thought that went into the design. It can be as simple as quirky glassware, like our always popular Cybil Wine Glasses or Champagne Flutes. Or luxurious velvet linens, in a deep Magnolia or eye-catching Merlot – they won’t be able to keep their hands off it! Another luxe addition are stylish centerpieces like our Davis Glass Cylinders, paired with greenery and candles. Or our contemporary Acrylic Rectangle Container.

When in the South, there is no better way to celebrate than at a barn party! These historic buildings ooze southern charm and make for a gorgeous rustic backdrop – especially when complemented by our barn-inspired party rentals.

Whiskey Barrel Bars

One of our favorite rustic event rentals, our whiskey barrel bars are a must-have for a barn party. These classic pieces are a gorgeous choice for a bar, as well as a food display or grazing table. Choose from regular whiskey barrels or whitewash barrels, depending on your personal style. Then pick from three stylish tops: Barnwood, Galvanized, or Acrylic. Alternatively, we have a variety of traditional bars, perfect for catered events, made of rustic materials. Including our beautiful Bond Bar, Miller Bar in Wash White, and Tin Lizzie Corrugated Metal Bar.

Of course, every bar needs glassware! We have gorgeous glasses for rent, ideal for a range of classic drinks. Serve straight whiskey in our Monaco Rocks Glass. Refreshing Mint Juleps out of our classic Mint Julep Cups. And a spiked Arnold Palmer in a Recycled Hi-Ball Glass.

Rustic Bistro Tables

At some events lounge areas are ideal, but for a barn party, cocktail tables will do the trick! With music to dance to, save lounges for outdoor areas and opt for smaller areas where people can gather to chat and place their beverages. Another set of beautiful farm-inspired rentals, our Farm Bistro Tables pair perfectly with the more elegant Cross-Back Barstools.

Farm-to-Table Dinner Rentals

Hoping to host an intimate dinner in place of or following a cocktail hour? A barn party is the perfect time to enjoy a farm-to-table dinner!

Soften the wood tabletop with a Havana Ecru Runner and napkins. For a clean but cozy look, feature our Artisan China along with a set of Abby or Hammered Flatware. Want to feature a pop of color? Our Smoke Tumblers will do the trick!

Outdoor Party Lounges

Considering most barns are situated on open land, take advantage when you make it an indoor and outdoor event. If the weather is nice, a lounge is a cozy place to settle in and chat for a while – with a drink in hand! Should you have more room, and a fire pit nearby, featuring our Rustic Benches decked out with pillows and throws. And if you need the fire itself, we’ve got that too! Our Hammered Rectangle Fire Pit and Stone Round Fire Pit are both gorgeous choices (that can also be used to make s’mores).

You don’t have to host a huge celebration in order to incorporate a ‘wow’ factor. Our Barback Shelves are a simple addition that will uplevel any event. It is a fun way to greet your guests with appetizers or a cocktail, as seen with this popsicle champagne wall. Or, they can visit it later, to find a sweet treat or dessert. Like fresh donuts and milk or coffee! And, since they are easy to customize you can incorporate elegant decorations such as a neon sign or vibrant florals.

Chic Cocktail Lounges

A must-have for a cocktail hour is a social area, where guests can sit down and sip on their drinks for a while. Consider a bistro table or lounge areas, or even both! Feature a combination of our sofas, chairs, and accent tables to create a chic setup. Consider our Everly Sofa and Chairs, paired with a set of our Capriano Marble and Copper Accent Tables. We also recommend including a few of our colorful event rentals, whether you opt for a Vintage Rug or swap out the Everly Chairs for our Saylor Navy Velvet Chairs.

Don’t forget to grab a selection of our beautiful glassware for rent – to serve up colorful fruit-infused cocktails! If you won’t have a bar and would prefer a self-serve drink station, our Gold Beverage Jars are a stylish way to dish up big batch cocktails.

Intimate Yet Luxe Dining

If your goal is a true garden dinner party, with more than just appetizers, you’ll also need some elegant tablescapes. We have a variety of beautiful tables and linens for rent, an essential foundation for colorful event design. Start with our Kennedy Fawn or Dusty Blue Etched Velvet Linens. Pastels will lend color but allow vibrant floral centerpieces to shine! If you like the look of more layers, top it off with any of our chiffon runners. For serving ware, keep it simple but don’t be afraid of some texture. Check out our Rattan White Wash Chargers, which pair beautifully with any of our white china. For napkins, any of our luxe linens will do. We also recommend incorporating some pieces featuring metallic colors, whether it be our Austin Gold or Brushed Copper Flatware, for that chic touch. Maybe even our Vera Floral China!
