The Jewish New Year festival Rosh Hashanah literally means “head of the year”. Taking place in early Autumn, one of the main features is festive meals both night and day. To help spark your creativity, we’re sharing tablescapes to inspire you for Rosh Hashanah, featuring our modern serving ware, colorful linens & more!

Apples

It is traditional to begin the meal on the first night with slices of apple dipped in honey. Before eating the apple, we make the ha’eitz blessing and then say, “May it be Your will to renew for us a good and sweet year.” This tablescape features a runner of lush greenery, wheat, artichokes, and apples to create an abundant centerpiece. If you want to host your dinner celebration outside, be sure to check out our rustic furniture, like our elegant Cross-back Chairs.

Pears & Pomegranates

Aside from apples, pears are commonly used in sweet desserts. But, for another Rosh Hashanah table idea, they can also be used to decorate. As with pomegranates! Many eat pomegranates, giving voice to a wish that “our merits be many like the seeds of the pomegranate.” These fruits are not eaten on the second night of the holiday. So instead, opt for a “new fruit” or a fruit that has not been eaten since it was last in-season.

The tablescape below features our Cameron Flatware, Stemless and Madison Glassware, Russet Satin Napkins and London Fog Velvet Linens – for a neutral but elegant look!

Get inspired for your own intimate backyard wedding in Nashville, when you check out the details from this timeless event.

The pair hosted their small ceremony behind the home on a stone patio. For a backdrop, they featured a simple wooden arbor decorated with fresh flowers. Seating consisted of our elegant wood Harlin Dining Chairs with white cushions.

After they exchanged vows, they retired to a tent situated in the front yard. It was the perfect setup for the warm weather! Their layout consisted of both round and banquet dinner tables, outfitted in classic white linens. The centerpieces consisted of our Davis Glass Cylinders, paired with candles and greenery. As well as a sprinkling of votive candles.

To complement their gold and white wedding palette, we created place settings starring our Gold Medallion Glass Chargers. Along with our Austin Gold Flatware, Pure Glassware, and Kennedy White Linens. On their designated dessert table, a beautiful wedding cake stood out on our Gold Windsor Cake Stand.

Say “Goodbye” to the days of worrying about the wear and tear of floors or grass at your event. And let us introduce you to durable and stylish event flooring! Our team understands that the floor is the foundation for your event, and will lend to a more cohesive and aesthetically pleasing look. Get inspired for your upcoming celebration in Nashville, when you check out our trendy yet functional in-stock flooring options.

Dura-Trac Flooring

Made for the event industry by special event flooring experts, Dura-Trac flooring is an easy-to-install flooring system designed to protect your existing space. The interlocking panel system is the perfect way to protect your space and your guests, making it ideal for festivals, concerts, tented parties, and more! It can be installed over a variety of surfaces, including those that are uneven. Best of all, it can be customized by placing premium vinyl flooring or carpeting over the top. To learn more about our Dura-Trac flooring, download our PDF.

Artificial Grass

Why would you use artificial grass at your event? It’s a unique option that will lend a fun touch of texture to your event. For an indoor event, it will also lend traction, making it perfect for placing on top of existing tile or vinyl flooring. For warm-weather outdoor events, it will actually offer a more natural and welcoming look. Consider renting it for your next tailgating party, trade-show exhibit, or church picnic!

Dance Floors

Some flooring is limited to certain areas of your event space, like dance floors. They act as a focal point within an event space, in addition to being a designated area for entertainment. We offer a selection of dance floors, for a variety of different event types and themes. Although our classic White and Black dance floor is popular, our Plank Wood dance floor will lend a modern and timeless look to your event.

The entrance to an event is a guest’s first impression of what’s to come! It will set the tone for the remainder of the event, and so it’s important to start things off on the right foot. Today, we’re sharing some of our in-stock rentals that can be used to create a grand event entrance.

Carpeted Entrance

Want to wow your guests? A carpeted entrance to your event is a sure way to do that. A red carpet is an easy way to lend a hint of old Hollywood glamour – regardless of the formality of the event! It will lend to the overall look and experience, making guests feel as though they are special and creating excitement for what lies in store. Of course, your carpet doesn’t have to be red! Feel free to feature your event or company colors like the grand event entrance done in blue and white below.

Stanchion & Rope

Along with a grand carpet entrance, you’ll want to rent stanchion and rope. Our Chrome Stanchions are a timeless addition that will help you maintain an orderly entrance. It is especially great for events that will require attendees to queue up or that are ticketed.  You will also be able to choose between our Black Velour Rope and Red Velour Rope, depending on the theme or color palette featured at your event.

Vinyl Appliques

When you have a thoughtful theme or event design, vinyl appliques on your event flooring can be a unique way to welcome guests.  Custom appliques can be added to our Black, White or Natural dance floors – doubling as entrance flooring- as part of your grand event entrance. Here we replicated the florals from the event invitation and linen pattern onto floor appliques. Also, consider showing off your new monogram to welcome wedding guests or brand at a product launch.

Want to use one or several of these rentals to create a grand event entrance? We would love to make it happen! Contact our team at info@southerneventsonline.com & let’s start planning a one-of-a-kind event.

Neutral color palettes have been popular as they offer a stylish yet timeless look. However, there are both cool and warm neutral colors, which will lend a completely different vibe to an event. Today, we’re doling out some inspiration featuring our natural-neutral wedding rentals! These warm-toned pieces will lend a modern yet organic theme to your event.

Natural-Neutral Place Settings

One of our favorite ways to feature natural neutrals is via an elegant tablescape. We carry a large variety of warm-toned serving ware for creating a cohesive and memorable layout. For starters, consider our Fruitwood Farm Table for the perfect warm-toned base. Alternatively, a table with light-colored linen will add a brighter base.

These elegant tables are warm and feature pink for a fun feminine flair. Both are accented with metallic gold accents, for a wonderful luxe look! We always recommend a touch of texture. For instance, using neutral velvet table linens or a wood tabletop with a table runner.

Worried that your tablescape will be overwhelmingly warm-toned? Add in a touch of cool-toned neutrals. These tables are beautifully balanced thanks to silver accents. Our Earthen Onyx or Earthen Stone China always pairs well with a warm-toned charger or napkins. Or feature silver flatware atop a neutral table or table linens.

Linens

Speaking of linens, let’s cover a few of our favorites. First up is our stunning Golden Velvet Linens. With a buttery texture, this piece will make a gorgeous base for a luxe tablescape. It pairs well with cream, white or brown. Next up is Kennedy Natural, with a beautiful woven texture. It will lend a touch of texture to a table and is a subtle and elegant color. Finally, there is our Ivory Sahara Runner. Place this runner atop our Fruitwood Farm table for a slightly more casual vibe.

Neutral Lounge Furniture

What’s a social event without a cute and cozy lounge area? We carry a range of comfortable, natural neutral furniture. First up is our Tessa Tufted Beige Linen Loveseat, which is a beautiful piece for a sweetheart table, as well as smaller lounge areas. Alternatively, our Bennett Leather Sofa is a rich brown color and the perfect size for a larger event. Lastly, be sure to check out one of the newest additions to our catalog, the Everly sofa! This cream-colored piece features an arched silhouette, pad feet, a camelback, and carved arms, plus a distressed wood frame.

At any event, interactive elements are a must-have! It will help get guests out of their seats and socializing. Plus it will make your event more visually appealing since it doubles as a decoration. Take a look at some of our favorite rentals that can be used to create interactive party displays, from delicious donut walls to fun bubbly bars and classy carts!

Market Cart

A two-wheel cart with an awning, this charming display prop is so versatile! It can be used to display a small food selection or function as a drink station. In our personal opinion, it would make for a darling grazing station, packed with cold cuts and cheese on our vintage-inspired silver trays. You’re welcome to decorate our Market Cart to your heart’s desire, with fresh flowers, banners, or balloons!

Shelving

Despite its simple appearance, our Avenue Barback Shelf is a staple at events that feature self-serve drink stations. It’s a luxe gold metallic color and features brown wood veneer shelves. You can easily recreate this luxe bubbly bar when you rent a variety of our gorgeous modern glassware! Our current favorites include Cybil and Pure Glassware.

Ticket Booth

Although most events now offer tickets online, a classic booth is a fun way to welcome guests to your event! Our sturdy booth features a solid wood top and is a solid white color that will work any color palette. It also features a decal sign area so that you can easily personalize it to compliment the theme of your event.

Donut Wall

Donut walls are far from a past fad. In fact, we’re predicting that these delicious displays will stick around for a while – because who doesn’t love a donut? Our wall is freestanding, features a beautiful dark stain, and has 48 pegs, which can hold 2-3 donuts each. The only downside is that it doesn’t come with the donuts!

Earth tone colors are warm, reassuring, and luxurious – making them a beautiful choice for a mature yet cozy party or event! They are especially common in palettes for neutral and bohemian-themed events, now peaking in popularity due to a recent appreciation for minimalistic event designs. Take a look at some of our trendy earth-tone party rentals to create a timeless look at your next Nashville event!

Velvet Linens

Linens amplify the look of any tablescape, but velvet adds a certain elegance that just can’t be beaten. And one that pairs perfectly with the vibe of earth tones. Soft in texture and rich in color, we offer velvet linens in a wide range of warm, earth-inspired colors.

Napkins

Every place setting needs a napkin! Below you’ll see a bright neutral design featuring our Driftwood Velvet napkins, paired with a Havana Cafe Velvet runner. For a warmer, moody look, Spice Velvet napkins are a stark contrast next to a classic black runner.

Velvet Table Linens

Give your tablescape a rich base to build upon. We carry velvet table linens for every size table so that you can create a cohesive look from one event space to the next. As you can see, velvet linens stand out in any setting, indoor and out. Our Light Pink and Driftwood Velvet linens look stunning for a more modern event design. In contrast, our Spice Velvet suits a rustic or wooded venue.

Amber Goblets

Clear glassware is an easy choice, but you won’t want to overlook our Amber Goblets. Use these stunning pieces in conjunction with other colored serving ware, or as the sole colored rental on a warm, neutral tablescape. If you are opting for a design that features minimal textures, then these glasses will be a welcome touch, with their antique-inspired design.

Chargers

Chargers lend to the overall aesthetic of a table, creating a more finished look. And we carry a charger for every earth-tone event, color and style! For a warm gold design, our Medallion Gold Glass Charger is a classic thanks to the intricate rim. It also pairs beautifully with our Austin Gold Flatware.

For a rustic-inspired event or boho-themed event, our Scalloped Wood Charger is a must. The simple but unique edging will make every single plate pop against the table!

Lastly, is our timeless Copper Glass Charger. This elegant piece features clear glass at the center and a contemporary copper rim. We love this earth-tone party rental for a modern neutral-themed event, such as a wedding or gala.

It’s the perfect balance of chic, contemporary, and moody details, for a look that is relaxed, but bold and unique! Get inspired for your upcoming event with this bold boho diva event style we created at Franklin wedding venue Southall Meadows featuring our stylish rentals.

Bold & Moody

Our first tablescape is moody but romantic, with a black, rust, and pink color palette. Situated on top of our Fruitwood Farm Table is a deep Magnolia Green Runner. To complement the warm wood of the table we opted for our Medallion Gold Glass Charger and Onyx Dinner Plate, paired with Gold Austin Flatware.

Matching the elegant serving ware, we featured our Pure and Audrey Gold Rimmed Glassware.  To spice the look up a little, our beautifully textured, vintage-inspired Amber Goblets. Gold Chiavari Chairs were an easy choice for seating, with their dainty but luxe look.

Clean & Bright

Should you prefer a neutral palette, our second tablescape combines classic colors in an elegant and striking way. Also atop our Fruitwood Farm Table, is a Driftwood Table Runner and Yarrow Velvet Napkins. This design features silver metallic details, which complement the bright white centerpieces and crisp glassware. Notice our Silver Rimmed Glass Charger and Onyx Dinner Plate. Black is a key accent that is common with a Boho Diva inspired look.

Aiming for a slightly quirky but still elegant look, we carefully selected a few of our favorite contemporary rentals. Including our Como Flatware and gorgeous Cybil Glassware. And of course, our always popular Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs – also available with arms.

Glam Cocktail Tables

Cocktail tables, spread throughout an event space, make for the perfect opportunity to feature glam linens. Our Sequin tablecloths, shown in Gold, are available in 5 gorgeous colors. Or opt for one of our etched velvet linens, for a less over-the-top but equally elegant look.
