Spring events invite color back into the conversation. After months of deeper tones and cozy textures, spring opens the door to palettes that feel lighter, brighter, and more expressive. A thoughtful spring color palette does more than set the mood. It influences how tables photograph and how cohesive the overall design feels. Below are spring color directions we’re seeing resonate right now, along with ideas for translating each palette into a polished, intentional event design.

Green and Lime: Fresh, Playful, and Unexpected

Green continues to be a spring favorite, but this season it’s showing up with a brighter twist. Classic greens like pistachio paired with a punch of lime or yellow feel energetic without being overpowering. This palette works especially well for outdoor events, garden-inspired parties, or modern spring celebrations that want a little personality.

On the tabletop, Gwyneth Glass Charger and China provide a clean, modern base, while Gold Tabletop Cordless Lamps add warmth and glow as the light shifts throughout the event. For linens, you can layer Lime Pindot or Pistachio Satin napkins over a softer foundation like Cornsilk Poly. Or, fully commit to a bold look by carrying the brighter tones across the entire table.

Soft Pastels with a Grounded Base

Soft pastels remain a staple of spring wedding colors, but the most current approach balances them with neutral textures and classic materials. Rather than leaning fully sweet, these palettes feel elevated and intentional.

A tablescape built with Alabaster Earthen China and Rattan Chargers creates a warm, organic foundation that pairs beautifully with pastel accents. Costa Napkins in Cornflower or Blush add gentle color without overwhelming the table, while Bella Glassware in Smoke or Blue introduces just enough variation to keep things interesting.

For seating, Antique White Bentwood Chairs or the more refined Harlin Dining Chairs complement this palette effortlessly. This combination works well for daytime weddings, spring brunches, and events where florals take center stage.

Tonal Browns: Elegant, Warm, and Timeless

Spring palettes don’t always have to be light or floral. Tonal browns layered with white and cream create a sophisticated look that feels grounded and modern, especially for clients drawn to understated elegance.

This palette comes together beautifully with Chocolate Poly Linens paired with Natural Costa Nova Napkins, creating depth through tone rather than contrast. On the tabletop, Welles Wheat China and Monaco Cut Crystal Glassware elevate the look, while Kendall Champagne Flatware adds a subtle metallic accent. For added contrast and a slightly editorial edge, Black Willow Chairs bring definition to the space without overpowering the palette. This approach is ideal for evening spring events or venues with architectural character.

Bold and Print-Forward: Color Without Apology

For hosts who love making a statement, spring is the perfect season to embrace bold color and pattern. Rich tones layered together feel intentional when the palette is cohesive, even when it’s expressive.

A standout option is pairing a dramatic Regalia Velvet with Heritage Red Cranberry Napkins and Blue Meridian Tumblers. This combination feels vibrant and luxurious, especially when styled alongside large-scale floral installations in deep greens and saturated blooms. To balance the richness, Welles Blue China with gold accents adds polish and structure. This palette works best when leaned into fully, creating a high-impact look that feels curated rather than chaotic.

Bringing Spring Color Palettes to Life

No matter which direction you choose, the most successful spring palettes rely on layering. Color, texture, and material should work together to tell a cohesive story. Florals can enhance the palette rather than define it, while linens, tabletop pieces, and furniture help anchor the design.

At Southern Events, we help clients translate inspiration into real-world design, using rentals to support the palette rather than distract from it. Whether your spring celebration leans fresh and playful or bold and expressive, a thoughtful spring color palette sets the stage for a memorable event. If you’d like help refining your palette or selecting rentals that bring it to life, our team is always happy to guide the process. Reach out today!

Wedding seating plays a bigger role in event design than most people expect. Chairs influence the overall aesthetic, affect guest comfort, and help define whether a space feels classic, relaxed, or modern. With so many styles available, choosing the right option can feel overwhelming. This guide breaks down three of the most popular wedding chair rentals—Chiavari, Cross Back, and Ghost—so you can decide which style best fits your venue, guest list, and design vision.

Chiavari Chairs: Classic and Versatile

Chiavari chairs are a staple in wedding seating for a reason. Their slim silhouette and elegant profile work beautifully across a wide range of styles, from traditional ballroom weddings to outdoor garden ceremonies.

Our Chiavari chair rentals are available in Black, Fruitwood, Gold, Sage, and White, making them easy to match with your color palette and overall aesthetic. Gold Chiavari chairs bring formal elegance to indoor receptions, while Fruitwood and Sage feel warm and organic for outdoor settings. White Chiavari chairs are especially popular for spring and summer weddings where a clean, airy look is key.

If you’re wondering what chair style works best for outdoor weddings, Chiavari chairs are often a safe and stylish choice. Their lightweight design makes them easy to place on grass, patios, or tented spaces, and they photograph beautifully from every angle.

Cross Back Chairs: Warm and Inviting

Cross Back chairs offer a more relaxed feel without sacrificing sophistication. Their curved backs and wood tones create a welcoming atmosphere that works especially well for vineyard weddings, barn venues, and outdoor receptions.

Our Cross Back chair rentals are a favorite for couples who want seating that feels intentional but not overly formal. For similar looks with added flexibility, other wood alternatives include the Fruitwood Folding Chair or the more refined Harlin Dining Chair. These offer a slightly elevated profile while maintaining warmth and comfort.

These styles are ideal for long receptions and dinner-focused celebrations where guests will be seated for extended periods. The natural wood tones also pair effortlessly with farm tables, breezy runners, and candlelit centerpieces.

Ghost Chairs: Modern and Minimal

For couples drawn to clean lines and contemporary design, Ghost chairs offer a striking alternative to traditional wedding seating. Made from clear acrylic, these chairs blend seamlessly into their surroundings, allowing florals, linens, and architecture to take center stage.

We offer several Ghost chair options depending on your needs. The Acrylic Carrigan Side Chair is an ethereal option that works well for both ceremonies and receptions. The Acrylic Ghost Arm Chair is typically better suited for receptions, head tables, or sweetheart tables. When guests are seated longer, they appreciate the added support of armrests. For ceremonies, the Acrylic Ghost Armless Chair is a popular choice thanks to its sleek profile and unobstructed look.

A common concern we hear is, are ghost chairs comfortable for guests? While they may look minimal, they are designed for stability and comfort, especially for ceremony seating or shorter seated moments.

Mixing Chair Styles Thoughtfully

Not every wedding needs to use a single chair style throughout. Many couples mix seating intentionally—for example, Ghost chairs for the ceremony and Chiavari or Cross Back chairs for the reception. This approach allows you to tailor each space to its purpose while still maintaining a cohesive design. The key is consistency in tone. Mixing works best when styles share a common thread, such as color, material, or overall formality level.

Planning Your Wedding Seating

Another common question is, how many chairs do I need for a wedding? A good rule of thumb is one chair per guest for the ceremony, plus a small buffer for unexpected additions. If your ceremony and reception are in the same space, your seating plan may be more streamlined. If they’re separate, you may need chairs for both areas, depending on the layout and timing.

Your venue size, layout, and guest flow all play a role in determining the right seating strategy. This is where working with an experienced rental team can help simplify decisions and avoid last-minute surprises.

Choosing Wedding Chair Rentals that Fit Your Vision

The best wedding seating doesn’t just look good—it supports how your day unfolds. Whether you’re drawn to the timeless elegance of Chiavari chairs, the warmth of Cross Back seating, or the modern edge of Ghost chairs, the right choice will complement your venue and elevate the guest experience. If you’d like help selecting the right wedding chair rentals for your celebration, our team is always happy to guide you. Reach out today!

Nashville knows how to celebrate. Whether it’s an elegant wedding, a lively backyard dinner, or a stylish corporate event, every gathering in this city has its own signature charm. The secret? Thoughtful details and curated rentals that bring your vision to life. At Southern Events, we’ve rounded up the Nashville event rentals everyone’s loving right now—from velvet lounges to statement bars and trendsetting tablescapes.

Bar Setups That Steal the Scene

Every great party starts at the bar. From signature cocktails to sparkling water, your setup deserves as much attention as the drinks themselves. Nashville hosts love pairing style with function, and these bars are leading the charge.

The Collins Black Wood Bar is a solid favorite for its deep black tone and geometric facade that feels both modern and timeless. For a softer, more organic look, the Franklin Sage Bar is trending thanks to its natural green finish and versatile shape. And if you want to dazzle, the Chelsea Marble Top Bar—with its glimmering gold facade and marble surface—is the ultimate statement piece for elevated events.

Stock your bar with glassware from our collection, and complete the look with our bar back shelving in white, gold, or black. Whether you’re serving craft cocktails or hosting a tasting menu, these setups make every pour feel polished.

Linens That Set the Mood

Linens are where design begins. In Nashville, hosts are embracing texture, color, and personality. For a chic and romantic look, Labella Pink adds sophistication with its soft lace-inspired print. For outdoor parties or farmhouse-inspired celebrations, the Savannah Sage Plaid is a fresh yet relaxed choice that complements any natural setting.

Striped linens are also having a moment. Our Santorini Stripe in French Blue or Tobacco is elegant yet approachable, perfect for brunches, showers, and coastal-inspired events. For a touch of luxury, our velvet tablecloths in Fern or Golden are a must-have for winter or evening celebrations. Looking for a pop of color? Top your china with Costa or Lucia Frayed Napkins for subtle contrast and texture.

Tablescapes Guests Love

When it comes to servingware, Nashville clients are leaning into personality and texture. The Green Liana China adds instant charm with its bright floral print. Our Cabo Marigold China brings bold, coastal-inspired color to the table. For something timeless and versatile, the Gwyneth Glass Collection is always a winner.

Layer your look with Walnut or White Wash Rattan Chargers for natural texture. Or choose Scalloped Wood Chargers for a touch of rustic refinement. These pair beautifully with seasonal florals, soft linens, and candlelight, perfect for any event that values warmth and detail.

Luxe Lounges Everyone’s Talking About

There’s nothing like a cozy corner to keep guests comfortable and conversations flowing. Nashville’s love for velvet lounge furniture and eclectic pairings continues to shine through.

For a rich, masculine look, the Bennett Leather Sofa paired with a Carter Chair and Hammered Coffee Table creates a warm, moody vibe perfect for cocktail lounges or whiskey tastings. If your event calls for soft elegance, the Fern Sofa or Charlotte Sofa and armchairs create inviting spaces with timeless silhouettes. A mix of vintage rugs adds dimension, making the space feel layered and complete.

Unique Details that Make an Impression

It’s the unexpected touches that set Nashville events apart. Our White Market Cart is endlessly versatile—perfect for dessert bars, champagne displays, or guest favors. The Vintage Popcorn Machine adds nostalgic charm to casual gatherings or outdoor parties. For vertical interest and added function, the White 6-Tier Serving Tower is ideal for sweets, glassware, or decor displays.

Winter wonderland parties never go out of style. With wintry white tones, layered candlelight, and plenty of sparkle, they capture the season’s most magical qualities. The goal is to recreate that first-snow feeling—crisp, glowing, and a little nostalgic—and bring it indoors. With the right mix of blue party rentals, luxe linens, and icy tabletop accents, you can design a cold-weather celebration that still feels warm and inviting. Below, we’re sharing ideas for creating your own blue-hued winter wonderland using pieces from our collection that are ready to reserve.

Elegant Ice-Inspired Serving Ware

Let’s start with the table. The right place setting is what takes your dinner or cocktail service from casual to cinematic. For that “frosted” winter feel, we love silver-accented serving ware, which instantly reads upscale and seasonal. Try a Glass Charger with Silver Rim or a Silver Round Lacquer Charger as your base. Layer with White Round China for a clean, classic look, or choose Earthen Alabaster China for something softer and more organic.

If you want something a little more dramatic, the Carrera Marble Dinner Plates bring in a luxe stone detail. For a moodier spin, Earthen Onyx China paired with Noir Matte Black Flatware feels modern and editorial without sacrificing warmth.

Glassware should feel intentional but not distracting. Stick with clean, clear silhouettes and let them catch the light. We love the quirky profile of the Cybil Champagne Flutes for toasts, and the vintage-inspired shape of the Monaco Water Goblets for water or mocktails. Together, they photograph beautifully without overwhelming the table.

Luxe Linens & Seating

Your linens do a lot of heavy lifting for both color and mood. We stock a wide range of luxurious linens in multiple shades of blue, so you can take your event in a few different directions.

For a chic, modern winter palette, lean into brighter icy tones like Ice Blue Poly or Heritage Light Blue. These lighter hues reflect candlelight and feel crisp, airy, and celebratory. If you want something cozier and a little more dramatic, choose deep blue velvet. A classic Navy Blue or cool London Fog velvet table linen instantly adds depth and softness, perfect for evening holiday gatherings or winter cocktail parties. And do not forget napkins—they are one of the easiest ways to bring in texture or an accent tone.

Seating is part of the overall story, not an afterthought. For a playful, retro-inspired setup, pair bright cocktail tables with Mid-Century White Barstools. For a dinner that leans more romantic and polished, our Antique White Bentwood Chairs feel graceful and timeless. We’re also big fans of the Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs. Under cool-toned lighting, they give off the effect of sculpted ice (without sacrificing comfort), and they work seamlessly with a frosty blue palette.

Cozy Winter Lounge Areas

Start with an anchor piece like a plush sofa or loveseat. The Henley Grey Velvet Tufted Sofa is a favorite because it balances drama and comfort. From there, build out the seating with stylish chairs that complement the palette. Sleek Acrylic Fantasma Side Chairs bring in that icy, modern edge, while the retro White Eiffel Arm Chair adds a little mid-century personality.

No lounge is complete without surfaces. Guests need a place to set a champagne coupe or a small plate of hors d’oeuvres! The Echo Mirror Side Table brings in a reflective silver finish that ties in beautifully with a winter wonderland look, while the Wood Distressed Side Table grounds the space with a more natural, fireside feel.

Soft details are the final touch: layered rugs, faux fur throws, and low lighting add warmth in a way that keeps everything from feeling too icy or too formal. This is also where you can play with metallics, glass, and candlelight to make the whole space glow.

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.

We loved working with Southern Events for our wedding rentals! We had a flip between our ceremony and reception and it went seamlessly and everything looked beautiful! The black and white checkered dance floor was stunning! —Kendall C.

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.

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.

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!

There’s a reason monochromatic event design continues to trend across weddings, galas, and corporate celebrations—it’s effortlessly chic. By focusing on one color and layering variations of tone, texture, and material, you can create an elevated look that feels both cohesive and memorable. It’s proof that sometimes, less really is more. You don’t have to stress about perfect color matches—what matters is the harmony of hue and the interplay of texture. Below, we’re showcasing how to bring this look to life using some of our favorite in-stock rentals!

Contemporary Black: Sleek and Sophisticated

A black palette never goes out of style. For a dramatic yet timeless look, our Black Velvet Sofa paired with Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs makes an instant statement. The Collins Black Wood Bar adds structure and warmth, while a Black Round Lacquer Charger layered with the Carrera Marble Dinner Plate creates a polished tablescape that feels high-end and editorial. Finish the look with Black Dupioni or Black Nova Linens for an elegant, seamless base that ties it all together.

Luxe and Modern White: Clean, Dreamy, and Timeless

White monochromatic design offers a blank canvas that radiates light and luxury. Our Thompson Full Oval Bar (or half-round) with a white bar back shelf created a sleek foundation for cocktails or displays. For seating, White Chiavari Chairs pair beautifully with layered linens. Try the Havana Parchment Tablecloth topped with a White Sahara Runner for depth and dimension.

At each place setting, Darcy China and matching chargers bring sculptural details to the table, balancing softness with contemporary edge. The result? A look that’s equally suited for a chic wedding or modern corporate dinner. Refined, elegant, and effortlessly photogenic.

Bold Blue: Confident and Captivating

For those who want color with character, a blue monochromatic design feels both bold and classic. The Marine Velvet Sofa and Armchairs set a luxurious tone, especially when paired with an Indigo Rug for depth. On the table, Cabo Blue China and Beaded Meridian Blue Tumblers bring vibrant energy to the setting. We love this look with our Heritage Light Blue Tablecloth and Kennedy Navy Napkins, a pairing that feels layered, fresh, and photo-ready. Whether it’s a dinner under string lights or a ballroom celebration, this shade of blue adds undeniable presence and poise.

Elegant Green: Natural, Inviting, and Refined

A green monochromatic palette brings the outside in, making it perfect for celebrations inspired by nature. The Fern Velvet Sofa and Sage-Blush Rug create a cozy yet elevated lounge area, while Sage Chiavari Chairs add soft structure to your dining setup. The Franklin Sage Bar is an instant showstopper, tying the color story together seamlessly.

For tabletop details, Liana China feels fresh and floral, complemented by the Sahara Sage Runner and Costa Nova Sage Napkins. This palette strikes the perfect balance—organic and grounded, yet exquisitely elegant.

Bringing It All Together

By focusing on one color story and playing with tone, texture, and finish, you create visual harmony and sophistication without the fuss.

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

• 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

• 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.
