Velvet Wedding Rentals: A Luxe Trend for Winter WeddingsSouthern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration |
When winter arrives, it brings with it an opportunity for rich colors, glowing candlelight, and cozy elegance. Few textures capture the season’s beauty quite like velvet, a timeless material that adds instant warmth and depth to any event design. From moody and modern to jewel-toned and romantic, velvet wedding rentals can transform your venue into a setting that feels soft, sumptuous, and unforgettable. Here are four ways to bring this trend to life with inspired pairings of linens, furniture, and decor.
Moody & Modern
If you love drama and contrast, a black-and-white palette layered with plush texture is your perfect match. Picture Black Velvet Tablecloths with matching napkins, accented by marble china. Gold flatware or glass chargers add a hint of shine while keeping the look refined.
Carry that same sophistication into your lounge with the Regent Black Velvet Sofa or Brooks Velvet Chairs. Ground the space with a sleek Black-Silver Rug and modern accents, like the Avalon Rectangular Coffee Table. This will create a polished monochromatic statement that feels contemporary yet timeless. It’s perfect for couples who want their winter wedding to feel equal parts chic and moody.


Blue-Hued Elegance
Winter and blue are a natural pairing—cool, serene, and endlessly stylish. For the tablescape, start with Navy Blue Velvet Linens and bright white napkins to evoke an icy, modern mood. Pair with silver-rimmed chargers and simple glassware to keep your reception feeling fresh and minimal.
In your lounge area, the Marine Velvet Sofa takes center stage, complemented by silver accents. The Echo Mirror Side Tables look stunning, especially when paired with a bold Indigo Rug. Layer with candlelight and frosted floral arrangements for a look that feels both seasonal and sophisticated.

Emerald Romance
For a winter wedding that’s vibrant yet refined, emerald is the way to go. Magnolia Green Velvet Linens paired with Scarlet Red Napkins create a rich, jewel-toned palette that feels festive without being over the top. Add gold flatware or accented servingware, such as china and chargers, along with natural greenery for an elevated finish.
Transition guests into a luxurious lounge featuring the Clover Velvet Chair and Magnolia Velvet Sofa. The deep green tones and gold side tables echo your tablescape beautifully. Meanwhile, warm lighting and subtle red accents—like berry-toned florals or metallic candleholders—add a romantic holiday touch.


Classic Winter Luxury
For couples drawn to timeless elegance, you can’t go wrong with neutral velvets and layered textures. White Velvet Tablecloths paired with Chocolate Velvet Napkins strike the perfect balance between cozy and refined. Complete the look with gold-rimmed chargers, crystal glassware, and lush white florals for a soft winter glow.
For the lounge, choose the Jackson Velvet Sofa and Arm Chairs to mirror the understated palette. Alternatively, consider the Pearce Modular Sofa—simple but elegant! Add Pewter Hammered Coffee Tables, faux fur throws, and ambient lighting to create a space that’s both glamorous and inviting.


Bringing It All Together
Velvet has a way of turning even the simplest spaces into something spectacular. Whether you’re planning a candlelit dinner or a grand ballroom affair, velvet wedding rentals infuse your design with elegance and comfort. The key is layering: mix rich tones, matte finishes, and soft textures for a cohesive, sophisticated look that feels perfect for winter.

What Event Catering Rentals Do I Need for My Celebration?Southern Events Products |
When you picture your next celebration, the food and drinks probably come to mind first. Whether it’s a backyard dinner or a company gathering, catering is what brings people together! But even the best menu needs the right setup to shine. From buffet tables and beverage stations to linens and bar setups, the right event catering rentals allow you to serve, display, and pour in style. Wondering, “how do I choose the right buffet tables for my event”? Let us help you find the perfect pieces for your next celebration.
Beverage Essentials That Keep the Party Flowing
Drinks are often the first thing guests reach for, so your setup should make an impression. Our Barrel Rolling Cooler is perfect for keeping beverages chilled and accessible. Meanwhile, the Hampton Beverage Dispensers make it easy to serve flavored waters, lemonade, or signature cocktails. For cooler months or morning events, multi-cup coffee urns and percolators ensure everyone stays energized and cozy.

For a full bar setup, our Black Jamison Curved Bar or Franklin Sage Bar with a Gold Barback Shelf creates a sleek focal point that fits everything from cocktail parties to formal dinners. Complement your setup with classic glassware, such as the Gatsby Coupe for champagne or a variety of wine glasses to suit your selections. Add a White 6-Tier Serving Tower to display garnishes, glassware, or grab-and-go cocktails with style.

Displays That Steal the Show
Food presentation can make just as much of an impression as the flavor itself. Our Chelsea Marble Top Bar or Market Cart can easily transform into stylish food or dessert displays. They’re especially popular for beverage stations, brunch spreads, and late-night treats. Tiered stands and cake stands like the Marble Gold Cake Stand create height and visual interest on buffet tables while also keeping your setup organized.

Serving Made Stylish
From cocktail hour appetizers to multi-course dinners, serving pieces play a crucial role in your event’s flow and aesthetic. Our Gold Oval Bread Baskets, silver trays, and charcuterie boards bring beauty to every course. For family-style dining, large serving bowls and platters make sharing effortless, while chafing dishes keep food warm and ready to enjoy. Each piece is designed to blend function with form so your event feels polished without being fussy.

Buffet & Tabletop Details
Your buffet tables deserve the same attention as your decor! Pair buffet table rentals with beautiful linens to complete your look. For tablecloths, Havana Parchment offers a timeless neutral, while our Santorini Stripe in French Blue or Rose gives a playful, on-trend twist. Or, for something subtle yet contemporary, the Kennedy Cactus linen adds understated texture. Together, they provide a backdrop that elevates your entire catering setup. After your table linens are chosen, consider Posy Scalloped Napkins or Lucia Frayed Napkins for your dining tables.

Finishing Touches That Make It Memorable
Every celebration is unique, but the goal is always the same: creating a memorable experience. The right catering equipment rentals make that easier—keeping food fresh, drinks flowing, and your presentation flawless. Combine buffet table rentals with beverage station rentals or portable bar rentals for a cohesive look that’s functional and photo-ready.
Whether you’re hosting a casual garden party or a corporate reception, our team helps you curate the ideal mix of rentals to match your space, theme, and guest list. From the first toast to the last slice of cake, Southern Events has everything you need to serve in style. Reach out with questions or request a quote today!

Holiday Lounge Areas: Tips for Designing Warm, Welcoming SpacesSouthern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration |
When the holidays arrive, it’s all about connection—the laughter, the stories, and the simple joy of being together. Whether you’re hosting a corporate party, a cocktail soirée, or an intimate winter gathering, creating inviting holiday lounge areas helps set the tone. A well-designed lounge encourages guests to relax, mingle, and linger a little longer. If you’ve ever wondered, “How do I design a cozy holiday lounge for a party?” it starts with thoughtful furniture pairings, a few key accessories, and plenty of warmth in color and texture.
Lounge Looks That Inspire
The right furniture can completely transform your space, offering comfort and sophistication in equal measure. Each of our curated combinations below helps you achieve a distinct style, whether your holiday celebration calls for moody drama, natural warmth, or bold elegance.

Moody Glam
For a look that’s both sleek and inviting, style the Magnolia Velvet Sofa with Black Brooks Velvet Chairs and the Avalon Rectangle Coffee Table. Anchor the space with a Black-Silver Rug for an extra touch of shine. This combination feels rich and intimate, fitting for evening gatherings or candlelit celebrations where guests can settle in with a drink and good company.
Warm & Woodsy Elegance
If your style leans toward rustic luxury, combine the Bennett Leather Sofa with the Carter Chair, a Bellamy Beige Linen Bench, and a Rivet Accent Table. Finish the space with an Indigo Rug for added depth and coziness. This setup feels like a winter lodge getaway: warm, textural, and timelessly elegant.

Bold & Gold
Bring some festive sparkle to your event with the Marine Velvet Sofa, Gold Bamboo Armchairs, and a Gold Hammered Coffee Table. A Navy Rug grounds the look with just the right balance of richness and restraint. This style is all about confidence! It’s perfect for a glamorous holiday party or chic New Year’s Eve lounge.
I had a great experience with Southern Events! Not only were their prices reasonable, but everything went smoothly. They were very accommodating with our rental needs and the set up, flip, and break down all went perfectly. Couldnt have asked for a better rental company! —Annie M.
No lounge area is complete without a nearby bar for guests to enjoy a festive drink while they chat and unwind. Our Black Jamison Curved Bar adds a dramatic focal point to any space, while the Chelsea Marble Top Bar brings subtle shimmer. For something timeless, the Franklin Antique White Bar offers a classic and versatile look.

Pair your bar with coordinating bar back shelves in black, white, or gold to keep glassware within easy reach and your display beautiful from every angle. Stock the shelves with elegant options from our glassware collection, whether you’re serving hot spiked cider, champagne toasts, or themed holiday cocktails.
Cocktail Tables That Tie It All Together
Cocktail tables are the unsung heroes of any great lounge setup—they’re where conversations happen, drinks rest, and decor details shine. The Charleston Bistro Table with a marble top makes a statement all on its own, perfect for a cocktail reception or dessert station. For a softer seasonal touch, cover classic tables with rich velvet linens in jewel or neutral tones.

Looking for a lighter, more natural aesthetic? The Palmer Bistro Table with matching chairs offers effortless charm in warm wood tones, ideal for daytime holiday gatherings. And for a luxe twist, the Loren Gold Bistro Table pairs beautifully with Acrylic Ghost Barstools or Gold Chiavari Barstools. It’s always a good idea to bring a hint of glamour to your festive setting!
Finishing Touches for a Cozy Holiday Lounge
“What accessories should I add to a holiday lounge space?” Start with texture! Think faux fur throws, velvet pillows, layered rugs, and ambient lighting. Add candles or twinkle lights to make your lounge glow. A few simple accents can transform a beautiful setup into one that feels lived-in, warm, and utterly welcoming.
From moody cocktail lounges to soft, winter-inspired spaces, our winter lounge furniture collection makes it easy to design the perfect holiday hangout. With the right mix of materials, seating, and sparkle, your guests will never want to leave. Contact us today to secure your rentals!

Instagram-Worthy Tabletop Rentals for an Elegant Birthday DinnerSouthern Events Products |
When it comes to hosting an elegant birthday dinner, the table is where the magic happens. Guests may gather for cocktails and conversation, but it’s the dining experience that leaves the most lasting impression. Every detail—from the linens to the glassware—works together to create a scene that feels both personal and extraordinary. If you’re wondering, “How do I make a birthday dinner feel special?”, it begins with tabletop rentals as thoughtful as the guest list itself.
Luxe Linens That Set the Mood
Table linens set the tone, and we carry an array of options that balance sophistication with style. For a bold, mature choice, the Black Botanica Tablecloth offers a refined print that feels timeless yet impactful. The Labella Pink linen is another favorite for birthday rentals, a chic option that strikes the perfect balance between fun and flirty. For a more relaxed setting, the Savannah Sage Plaid brings classic charm with a contemporary color palette, ideal for a brunch celebration or al fresco soirée. If you prefer understated texture, pairing Havana Ecru with our Natural Sahara runner creates a timeless combination.
And of course, napkins should not be overlooked! Whether you choose a textured fabric or a pop of color, they add dimension and tie the entire look together.


Place Settings that Elevate Every Bite
Place settings are where style truly shines. An earthy base of Earthen China paired with a Rattan Charger feels grounded and natural, perfect for those who love an organic aesthetic. For something playful, floral designs like our Emmie or Liana China bring freshness to both indoor and outdoor celebrations. Gold accents elevate the scene with glamorous detail—think Athena Gold Rim China or the Medallion Gold Glass Charger for a truly luxe setting. For a more mature, understated look, the Carrera Marble Dinner Plate or our Gwyneth Glass Collection adds sophistication with subtle texture and elegance.


Glassware to Sip and Celebrate
Glassware is an equally important part of the equation, especially for those who value the art of entertaining. Whether you’re crafting individual cocktails, dishing out a batch drink, or raising a glass of champagne, we have the perfect vessel. Colored glassware, like our Beaded or Deco styles, brings vibrancy to the table. Meanwhile, classic Martini or Gatsby Coupe glasses add an air of old-world charm. For a clean, modern feel, recycled glassware or Davis rock glasses keep things simple but refined. And with dedicated glasses for every variety of wine, your “birthday party rentals near me” Google search just got easier.


Styled by Southern: A Curated Touch
If you love the idea of an Instagram-worthy tablescape but prefer a turnkey solution, our Styled by Southern tabletop rentals are designed with you in mind. Verdant Wonderland creates a whimsical, cool-toned setting accented with gold, perfect for an evening dinner with just the right amount of drama. Layered Neutrals, on the other hand, offers timeless elegance with opulent linens, textured place settings, and warm touches of copper. Both packages allow you to host effortlessly while still impressing your guests with a design-forward table.

Final Touches for a Special Celebration
Every detail matters when planning an intimate, elevated dinner. By focusing on your tabletop rentals, you create an atmosphere where guests not only celebrate but savor the experience. Whether you choose bold linens, chic place settings, or curated packages, our birthday rentals provide the tools to design a celebration that feels as stylish as it is personal.

Party Table Rental 101: Styles, Sizes & Setup TipsSouthern Events Products |
Tables may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you start planning a party, but they set the stage for how your event looks and flows. From dining to dancing, displays to drinks, tables shape the experience for your guests. With our party table rental selection, we make it easy to find the right style and size for any celebration. Wondering how many tables do I need for my party? Or should I rent round or rectangular tables? Let’s dive into the basics so you can choose with confidence.
The Basics: Folding Tables for Every Setup
Folding tables are the workhorses of any event. Available in round and rectangular banquet styles, they’re versatile, affordable, and pair beautifully with our linen rentals. Round table rentals encourage conversation and are ideal for seated dinners, while rectangular banquet tables maximize space and create long, communal layouts. We even carry serpentine tables, which are perfect for creative setups like curved buffets or bar stations. You can achieve a similar look by staggering round tables side by side with coordinated linens for a flowing design.


Specialty Tables for Added Style
Looking for furniture that doesn’t need to be covered? Our specialty tables are a stylish solution when you want to skip the linens or complement a unique venue.
- Rustic Farm Tables – A timeless favorite that works beautifully for outdoor parties and barn venues
- Aged Oak Dining Tables – Modern and elegant, perfect for upscale gatherings
- White Antique Dining Tables – A refined choice that brings vintage charm to any celebration
Pair these with wood seating like the Harlin or Adeline Dining Chairs, or classic Cross-Back Chairs for a cohesive, polished look.


Cocktail Tables: Where the Fun Happens
Every good party needs a spot for guests to gather with drinks in hand. That’s where cocktail tables come in. Do I need cocktail tables for my party? The answer is almost always yes, especially if you’re planning a cocktail hour, reception, or casual get-together. Some of our favorites include:
- Loren Gold Bistro Table with a glass top, paired with an Acrylic Ghost Barstool for a sleek, modern vibe
- Charleston Bistro Table or Hudson Outdoor Bistro Table for timeless versatility indoors or out
- Palmer Bistro Tables with matching chairs in light wood for a relaxed, coastal-inspired look
- Whiskey Barrels with Barnwood Tops or umbrellas for rustic charm that doubles as a conversation starter


Children’s Tables: For the Little Guests
Don’t forget about your youngest partygoers. Our collection includes round and rectangular folding children’s tables as well as a charming Fruitwood Farm Table in kid-friendly proportions. They’re perfect for birthday parties, kids’ corners at weddings, or family-friendly gatherings.
Dressing It Up with Linens
Tables look best when styled thoughtfully! Our wide range of linen rentals makes it easy to tailor your tablescape to your theme. Crisp white linens keep things classic, velvet linens add luxe texture, and patterned linens bring personality to the mix. Whether you’re covering folding tables or layering runners over farm tables, linens are the finishing touch that ties everything together.


Putting It All Together
So, how many tables do you need for your party? A good rule of thumb is one dining table for every 8 to 10 guests, plus extras for food displays, gifts, and drinks. Round tables foster connection, rectangular banquet tables maximize space, and cocktail tables add a natural mingling point. Pair them with the right linens, seating, and accents, and you’ll have a party layout that’s both functional and beautiful. Ready to plan your perfect setup?

Party Equipment Rental Made Easy: What to Rent and WhySouthern Events Products |
Planning a party is exciting, but it can also feel like a never-ending to-do list. From tables and chairs to dance floors and lighting, the list of essentials grows quickly. By working with a local event rental company, you can check off all the big items in one place and focus on the fun details. Whether you are hosting a birthday, wedding, or fundraiser, we have the party equipment rentals to create the perfect setup.
The Basics: Tables and Chairs
Every party starts with a place to sit, eat, and mingle. Renting tables and chairs ensures your guests are comfortable and your space feels complete. From classic folding chairs and banquet tables to stylish cross-back seating and sleek cocktail tables, there is an option for every type of celebration.
Pro tip: Mix high-top tables with lounge seating to encourage mingling during cocktail hours or casual gatherings.


Dance Floors: The Life of the Party
If you plan to keep your guests moving, a dance floor rental is a must. Not only does it designate a central spot for fun, but it also helps protect your venue’s floors. Choose a white dance floor for an elegant, modern look or go with a wood finish for a warm, timeless feel. Either way, your guests will thank you when the DJ cranks up the music.

Catering & Concessions
Food and drinks are at the heart of any celebration. Our catering rentals make service easy and stylish, from buffet tables and serving platters to beverage dispensers. For extra fun, add concession equipment like a vintage-inspired popcorn machine. This piece is a guaranteed hit for kids’ parties, school events, and family gatherings.


Extras That Elevate
Sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest impact. Stage rentals can spotlight a band or speaker, while tents keep guests comfortable rain or shine. Lounge furniture creates cozy hangouts, and linens pull your entire look together. When you work with a full-service event rental company, you can bundle these essentials to fit your space, guest count, and theme.

Why Rent Instead of Buy?
Renting event equipment saves time, money, and stress. You don’t have to worry about setup, storage, or cleanup. Plus, rentals allow you to experiment with styles and trends you might not want to commit to long-term. Need 100 chairs for one night only? No problem. Want a dance floor big enough for your whole wedding party? We’ve got you covered.
Let’s Get This Party Started
Party planning should be fun, not stressful. With our wide range of party equipment rentals, we make it easy to bring your vision to life. From the basics to the extras that wow, our team will help you choose exactly what you need for a celebration your guests will never forget.

In Stock: Outdoor Wedding Ceremony RentalsSouthern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration |
Outdoor wedding ceremonies in Nashville come in every style and setting imaginable. From lush gardens and rolling farmland to city rooftops and lakeside docks, an open-air celebration brings the beauty of nature front and center. Whether you’ve dreamed of saying “I do” under a canopy of trees or in front of a sweeping skyline, Southern Events has the outdoor wedding ceremony rentals to make it unforgettable.
Seating That Sets the Scene
Your ceremony seating is more than a place for guests to land. It’s part of the overall atmosphere. Mix and match for an eclectic feel or choose a single style for a cohesive, classic look. For outdoor weddings, we love pieces that complement the surroundings and photograph beautifully:
- Rustic Benches for a relaxed, natural look that blends seamlessly into a farm or garden venue
- White Folding Chairs for a clean, traditional style that pops against green grass or colorful blooms
- Cross-Back Chairs for a warm, wood-toned touch that feels timeless and elegant
- Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs for a sleek, modern contrast to outdoor backdrops
- Black Willow Chairs for a dramatic, fashion-forward vibe


Backdrops That Frame Your Vows
An outdoor venue often comes with a built-in view, but the right backdrop can help frame the moment and anchor your ceremony space. Even a simple structural element can help draw the eye and make your ceremony space feel complete. Some of our most-loved options include:
- Fiona Ivory Mantle for a romantic, vintage-inspired setting
- Wrought Iron Arch for a timeless structure that pairs beautifully with florals or greenery
- Franklin Antique White Columns for a clean, architectural touch
- Whiskey Barrels for rustic charm that also double as floral stands or drink stations


Style the Aisle
Your aisle is your runway, so give it the attention it deserves! Outdoor ceremonies are the perfect opportunity to incorporate natural textures and layered details. These little details not only elevate the design but also create gorgeous photo moments:
- Vintage Rugs to add warmth, color, and a collected feel
- Cowhide Rugs for a unique, boho-inspired twist
- Accent Tables like our Claro Metal or Cheval Gold Mirror Side Tables topped with flowers or lanterns
- Lush Florals or Greenery to line the pathway and soften the space


Frequently Asked Outdoor Ceremony Questions
- How many chairs do I need? Plan for one per guest, plus a few extras. For 150 guests, 160 chairs will give you flexibility for last-minute additions.
- What’s the best seating layout for outdoors? We love semi-circles for intimate spaces or staggered straight rows for a clean look. Curved layouts also work beautifully in wide-open areas.
- Do I need a backdrop if there’s a view? Not always! But a backdrop or framing element can help define the space and make photos feel intentional.
- Can I see the rentals in person? Absolutely. Schedule a visit to our Franklin showroom to see your options up close and design your dream setup.

The Secret to a Stylish Event? Linen Rentals That WowSouthern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration |
There’s something about beautiful linens that instantly set the tone for an event. They create the canvas for your table design, pull your color palette together, and bring a sense of polish that guests notice right away. Whether you are planning a wedding, gala, or corporate celebration, table linen rentals from Southern Events can take your space from simple to stunning! Get inspired by the latest additions to our inventory, with styling tips and tricks that guarantee a visually stunning tablescape.
All Eyes on the Table
Your tablescape is where guests spend the most time, making it the perfect place to showcase your style. Our inventory features a variety of tablecloth rentals, runners, and napkins that can serve as your backdrop or your focal point. These are a few of our current favorites:
- Blue Floral Linen – A timeless pattern reminiscent of classic toile, perfect for garden parties or elegant brunches
- Green Meadow Linen – A whimsical mix of green with bright pops of color, evoking a wildflower field in bloom
- Regalia Velvet Linen – Deep black velvet adorned with bold florals and regal peacock motifs for a dramatic, luxe look
- Verdant Bloom Linen – A contemporary field of cool-toned blue and green blooms for a fresh, editorial feel
Want to create depth? Layer a patterned runner over a solid cloth, or add napkins in a complementary shade to tie everything together.

What Size Linens Do I Need for My Event Tables?
The right size is key for a polished look. A standard 60-inch round table typically needs a 120-inch round tablecloth for a floor-length drop. For an 8-foot banquet table, a 90×156-inch linen will provide full coverage. If you prefer a more casual, mid-length look, opt for a shorter size. Not sure what will fit? Our team can guide you through measurements so every table is perfectly dressed.
How Much Does It Cost to Rent Linens for a Wedding?
Pricing depends on the fabric, size, and style. For standard polyester linens, expect to spend $10 to $25 per tablecloth. Specialty fabrics like velvet, satin, or sequined designs may range from $60 to $90 or more. Napkins, runners, and overlays are typically priced separately. Many couples find that investing in quality linens is worth it for the cohesive look and the time saved on cleaning and setup.

Beyond the Table
Linens are not just for dining tables. Use them to dress cocktail tables for a chic gathering space, drape a dessert table for a coordinated look, or cover buffet stations so they blend seamlessly with your décor. With the right fabric and color, linens can turn any functional space into a design feature.
Try It, Style It, Love It
The best way to see how linens can transform your event is to experience them in person. Visit our showroom in Franklin to explore our collection of table linen rentals, layer fabrics, and create sample setups with our event stylists. Prefer a ready-made look? Our Styled by Southern collections feature pre-curated designs that make linen selection effortless, perfect for planners or hosts who want a turnkey solution with standout style.

Vintage Wedding Rentals for a Southern-Inspired CelebrationOn Trend, Southern Events Products |
A classic Southern wedding never goes out of style. Especially when it blends charm, tradition, and thoughtful hospitality with heirloom-inspired details and elevated styling. Whether you’re planning a celebration under a sailcloth tent or inside a modern event barn, Southern Events offers the perfect way to create a nostalgic yet fresh atmosphere. Get inspired by our vintage wedding rentals featuring antique finishes, soft textures, and subtle palettes that feel timeless and refined.
A Venue-Worthy Vintage Backdrop
Start with a statement piece that sets the tone for your event. Our Franklin Antique White Bar is a perennial favorite with its paneling and vintage silhouette. It’s perfect for welcoming guests with signature drinks or champagne. For a twist on the classic look, opt for the same style in Sage (for a more modern, garden-inspired palette) or Fruitwood for a warmer, more rustic tone.

Serve It Up in Style
The charm is in the details—and that includes your serviceware. Our vintage catering rentals feature ornate silver trays in both round and rectangular styles, an elegant silver tea and coffee service with creamers and sugar bowls, and an assortment of cut glass pieces that add sparkle to any buffet or beverage station. These pieces pair perfectly with custom bar menus, biscuit bars, or mini dessert spreads.

The Vintage Wedding Tablescape
Table settings are a key part of designing a romantic vintage wedding, and our inventory includes countless combinations to suit your style!
Furniture: Choose the Antique White Bentwood Chair for a garden wedding feel. Or go more formal with the Adeline Dining Chair. Pair either with the White Antique Dining Table or the rustic-chic Aged Oak Dining Table for a curated mix of refined and relaxed.
Linens: Keep the look soft with the Blue Floral Tablecloth, Labella Pink, or Ivory Pearl Shalimar linen. Add a little structure and stitching with a Vallie Stitched Napkin in a neutral tone.
Dinnerware: For a layered, timeless look, use the Darcy China and Charger set with its subtle scalloped edge. Prefer something a little more playful? Try Emmie, with its delicate floral print. You can also create a curated feel using Heirloom China, a charming mix of vintage-style patterns that looks effortlessly collected over time.
Glassware: Opt for Hob Nob Glassware or Monaco Cut Crystal for sparkle and texture. Want a little color? Add vintage flair with our Amber or Green Colored Glassware, perfect for mixing into your palette without overpowering it.

Lounge Like It’s 1929
No Southern wedding is complete without a lounge area that invites guests to linger. Our Everly Sofa and Chair set brings vintage elegance to your cocktail hour or reception. Round out the setup with a Bellamy Linen Bench and layer in one (or two!) of our vintage rugs to complete the scene. These pieces work beautifully in outdoor tented spaces or under chandeliers in a barn, as well as tucked near the dance floor for when guests need a moment to kick off their heels.

From Heirloom to Modern
What we love most about this aesthetic is its versatility. A vintage wedding tablescape can feel relaxed and garden-party chic or dressed to the nines for a black-tie affair. It all comes down to how you pair your pieces. With our collection of vintage wedding rentals, you can bring a cohesive, customized vision to life that honors tradition while still feeling totally current.
