Keep reading to get inspired for your Nashville winter wedding, as we spotlight some of our modern and stylish event rentals to bring your vision to life.

Pastel Dream

Who said pastels were only for the spring? Not us! For this Nashville winter wedding, a dreamy palette of white, pastel pink and gold was on display. At the reception, our Gold Chiavari Chairs and bright white linens worked wonders, to lend a chic feminine look. The tablescape matched, with Gold Rimmed Glass Chargers, Ophelia China, Gold Austin Flatware, and voluminous floral centerpieces while velvet linens added a rich feel that we love for winter weddings.

For a unique seating area, our stunning Mercer collection was used. Paired with a handful of bright (and cozy) pillows in a range of pink shades, it blended in with the setting perfectly! Not to mention was incredibly comfy. Adding faux fur throws would be another way to up the cozy factor of this winter wedding lounge.

Modern Luxe 

Many brides enjoy a wedding look that is luxe, and we can’t blame them! Let’s start with our Gold Chiavari chairs, with seats for extra comfort and coziness! One of our most popular rentals, these chairs look gorgeous, whether they are dressed up or down.

For a luxe winter reception, we have to recommend a mix of green and gold. The touch of green keeps things fresh during the winter while the metallic accents sparkle in candlelight – a must for winter weddings. Below you will see our gorgeous Aubrey Gold Rimmed Glassware, Gold Accent China, and rich Magnolia Velvet Linens.

Effortless Minimalism 

Another winter wedding trend is minimalism as it reflects nature’s sleepy state.  A minimalist-inspired table focuses on clean lines and limited embellishments, and yet are still oh so beautiful. For our neutral loving brides, this tablescape is a winner. Warm yet modern, farm tables create a clean based to build a thoughtful place setting.  This look was created using our Artisan China, Como Flatware, Silver Glass Rimmed Charger, Cybil Glassware, and Havana Cafe Linens. And if you wanted, we think a pop of color via colored napkins would work well too! You can see that on the second tablescape with our Fern Velvet Napkins and greenery in the centerpiece.

At this indoor event, we love how this couple elevated their minimal look with a luxe accent like our Gold & Ivory Fresco Linens. Paired with pastel pink napkins and Gold Austin Flatware as well as our Cross-Back Chairs it’s a simple look with a sweet and romantic feel. It’s the perfect set up for a winter couple wanting to mix styles, effortlessly.

Winter Themed

Last but not least, we can’t leave out winter-themed weddings! These tables embrace the elements more traditional to the season like snow flocked boughs, pinecones or lanterns. For our first table, we used our dainty Darcy China, Hammered Flatware, and classic Madison Flatware. While the serving ware is simple, the fun winter wonderland centerpiece really brings this set up home – with a soft grey table runner and our rustic tabletop lanterns.

Meanwhile, this outdoor winter table blends wintry elements with a minimal look. Featuring our Darcy China, Stone China and Alabaster China ready for a winter feast and cozy drink, our Gold Austin Flatware and Reese Glassware added a luxe metallic touch. Subtle grey-purple napkins nod to colors of the season, tying it all together.

Victoria and Ben’s rustic chic wedding at 14Tenn in Nashville, Tennessee was a breath of fresh air. They carefully selected their decor and which colors to feature for a beautiful mix of bright whites and muted warm-toned neutrals. Get inspired for your own event with this luxe reception decor, including neutral themed tablescapes.

While some couples want a table to make them stand out, Victoria and Ben opted for a more understated look. We paired our Fruitwood Farm Table with classic folding chairs. Meanwhile, our Davis Glass Cylinders were used to cast a warm glow around the two. 14Tenn’s elegant event space made for a simple but beautiful backdrop.

The first place setting we created was designed for long wooden tables. The use of our bright Darcy China as a base ensured that they stood out against the dark colors. While our Blair Geometric China and Hammered Flatware were a luxe metallic touch. We opted to feature our Carly Glassware, which is sleek with a thick base.

To complement the warm tones of their overall design, they opted to use our Fruitwood Folding Chairs. They pair beautifully with any wood table. To draw from the rustic elements, galvanized chairs were added to the mix.

For the round tables, we created a separate but complementary place setting. Featuring the same Darcy China and Hammered Flatware, but with a different gold accent plate. In this case, our chic Kate Polka Dot China. It was all placed on our stunning Grey Nova linens.

It was a joy to work with Victoria and Ben to create the wedding reception of their dreams! We wish them a long and happy lifetime together.

We recently had the honor of being part of Hailey and Daniel’s Nashville wedding day at Sycamore Farms. Classy, elegant, and full of warmth – this day was bursting with elements that we are thrilled to share with you. From the lush views of the venue, down to the live band… it was utterly fabulous.

Let’s begin with the gowns. The bride wore a sophisticated white bridal gown with intricate details and a plunging neckline. Her bridesmaids looked elegant and beautiful with black bridesmaids dresses. We always adore a good black and white wedding style.

The couple’s vision for an elegant and classy day was brought to life by whites, golds, and accenting greenery. Hailey and Daniel exchanged vows outdoors under Sycamore Farms’ rustic pergola with 360-degree views, draped with white linens and trailing greenery. Guests watched the nuptials take place, seated in white chairs. Everyone dined and celebrated indoors, with tables dressed in elegant White Satin Linens, White Round China, and chic gold Austin Flatware.

The classiness of this perfect wedding day was leveled up by a live band. We brought in our White Harpeth Staging that fit the “elegant” bill perfectly. Clients adore this staging because of its versatility. We love using this white staging for live bands…it would also be a fabulous piece for a grand head table.

Lovely photography provided by Cannon Weddings. Thank you, Hailey and Daniel, for the honor of being part of your incredible wedding!

Southern Events Party Rental Company has large quantities for the most massive parties and biggest balls in the south! For Carly and Wilson’s big day, the couple gathered hundreds of their friends and family to celebrate in grand style in the Tennessee countryside. We were honored to work with the teams at Firefly Events and Enchanted Florist to outfit The Barn at Sycamore Farms in style with some of our newest rentals, including our specialty event bar, the Harpeth!

Guests were welcomed into the luxe barn with our comfortable lounge furniture – the perfect spot to enjoy cocktails or take a seat while waiting for the ceremony to begin. Our Santorini Off-White Sofa and Santorini Off-White Loveseat were set around our popular Brown Barnwood Coffee Table – the perfect display of modern and rustic.

Our Boxwood Walls helped family and friends find their seats – we just loved how each escort card was thoughtfully placed! Guests were encouraged to grab a drink at one of our Harpeth 8 ft Curved Bars that was on display. And, yes, that’s a custom wedding monogram featured on the front. This personal touch goes a long way – whether it’s your wedding logo or company logo – Southern can add it!

Each specialty event bar was truly decked out with more than enough glassware for the hundreds of guests – those signature drinks looked mighty fine in our Gatsby Coupes.

Dinner featured our Fruitwood Chiavari Chairs with a comfortable ivory cushion at each place setting. Our traditional Abby Flatware was gorgeous and placed alongside the popular Darcy Bone China Charger, with a Pink Dinner Napkin to complete the design.

Thanks so much to Nyk and Cali for the gorgeous images!

A wedding styled with dramatic rustic romance is a beautiful way to celebrate tying the knot, and Morgan and Nick did just that. They whisked their guests away to the majestic Saddlewood Farms, where the secluded affair began with an unforgettable outdoor ceremony. Family and friends were seated comfortably on the lawn with our white folding chairs before heading inside for cocktail hour, where our distinct lounge furniture set the scene.

Our Bennett Leather Sofa, London Loveseat, Cheval Gold Mirror Side Table, and Chocolate Poufs were rustic romance defined and pulled together perfectly atop Cow Hide Rugs. Throughout the massive barn, several of our Gold Conga Drum Side Tables were on display so guests could easily move around the barn and know they’d have somewhere to rest their drinks.

Dinner was an exquisite affair, with natural wood, gold, blush and burgundy at every turn. Our most-loved Harlin Dining Chairs with cushions were seated across from our Adeline Dining Chairs at the head table, while other family and friends were seated comfortably on Chiavari Dining Chairs. The head table featured table linens in rich burgundy, while round tables displayed blush dinner napkins for a bit of femininity. Hob Knob Glassware, Glass Chargers with Gold Rim, and Austin Flatware completed the tablescapes, with Wood Round Chargers rounding out the details of this magical rustic romance design.

Thanks so much to Laurie D’Anne Events for pulling all the elegant details together, and to SheHeWe Photography for sharing these photos with us.

Candice and Judd’s Houston Station wedding in Nashville was a charming Southern soiree with the sweetest rustic vintage details. We love how this couple expertly combined chairs from our Vintage Prop Shoppe with Whitewash Farm Tables and our Hobknob Glassware for a gorgeous wedding design. Our Annabelle Chair, Annabelle Arm Chair, Bonnie Chair, Christopher Chair, Clyde Chair, and Provence Chairs, were placed around the main table for the most delightful design – who knew mismatched could be so perfect?!

Gold details in tablescape, including Gold Charger Plates, Artisan China and Austin Flatware made for an elegant tablescape. Cross-back Chairs were showcased during cocktail hour and dinner, keeping the style decidedly rustic, while a gorgeous lounge area with modern furniture added a sleek and chic touch. Our London Loveseat, Tessa Tufted Loveseat, Mykonos Side Table and Fitzgerald Gold Side Table made for a stylish and comfortable lounge area – the perfect place for guests to mix and mingle.

Such a beautiful modern-day vintage wedding! Thank you so much to Nyk and Cali for capturing the details!

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!

Kalee and Aaron were married in the beautiful outdoor garden at CJ’s Off the Square with gold and rose gold details. For their reception, a mixed seating plan allowed for multiple coordinating tablescapes to be used creating a chic look for any fall couple.

Our Fruitwood Farm Tables were set with Fruitwood Chiavari Chairs, Belmont Chargers, and our Gold Metal Spheres. Round Tables were topped with Champagne Dupioni Linens, Gold Round Laquer Charger Plates, and featured our Gold Metal Intersect Cube as the centerpiece. Each guest’s setting was completed with Gold Austin Flatware and a Copper Moscow Mule as the guest favor. The sweet newlyweds sat together on our Tessa Tufted Loveseat as they dined off of Gold Hamlet China and toasted their marriage with our Gatsby Champagne Coupe.

Such a chic and uniquely designed wedding for a gorgeous couple! Photos by the talented John Myer Photography.

After a traditional church wedding, Katie & Rich celebrated as newlyweds with family & friends at Marathon Music Works in Nashville.  The venues is a blank canvas when it comes to event design and with the right lighting, it is easy to transform the space.  Katie & Rich kept things timeless while adding a few romance touches including vintage chairs for themselves a the head table and Willow cake stand. Our Gold Hamlet China at each seat brought the sparkle and understated flowers created an elegant look.

Thanks to Pictures by Katie for the great images and congrats to the happy couple!
