Winter may be in full swing, but that’s no excuse to halt the jubilations! In fact, it’s the perfect time to gather, to reap the warmth provided by the love of family and friends. To help you host a memorable get-together, Southern stocks a range of cozy event rentals that will encourage guests to sit, sip, and soak it all in. Take a look at some of our favorite winter party rentals, from plush lounge furniture to luxe linens, perfect for hosting a cozy seasonally-inspired celebration.

Plush Velvet Lounge Areas

If there is one essential for a chilly winter party, it’s a cozy lounge area – maybe two! Indoor or outdoor, your guests will want a plush place to sit back, relax, and mingle. Even more so if you have plans for a well-stocked bar. We offer a range of gorgeous furniture pieces that you can mix and match to create a stunning lounge. Our Fern Velvet Sofa or Henley Grey Velvet Tufted Sofa are elegant pieces, which can be paired with a set of loveseats or armchairs. Popular choices include our Gold Bamboo and White Eiffel Arm Chairs. Both of which offer an on-trend modern retro look. Or, consider the bright white Estelle Quarter-Round Sofa, perfect for a long night of mingling. Just don’t forget to grab one of our beautiful vintage rugs to frame the space and add a little extra warmth!

Glittering Metallic Holiday Tablescapes

When it comes to winter event tables, the most popular choice for serving ware are pieces that star metallic accents. Such as our Glass Charger with Gold Rim, Austin Gold Flatware, and Celia Gold Rim Glassware. To help warm up your table and create a more welcoming or cozy look, we recommend adding a splash of colors and textures. Start with elegant linens in a warm color, like Moss Green Crush or Havana Ecru. Velvet napkins are an easy way to add a fun pop of color, as well as a soft subtle texture. Opt for our elegant White Etched Velvet or a brilliant Navy Blue that nods to the icy hue of the season. If your plates or serving ware feature metallics, sub traditional glassware for colored tumblers or water goblets. Such as the Meridian Blue or Smoke Beaded Glassware.

This fall wedding featured a range of warm neutral shades, that lent a timeless rustic look. To recreate this design, dress rectangle and round tables in Ivory Poly Linens and/or a Natural Sahara Table Runner. Avoid an overly minimalist look when you opt for detailed place settings! We recommend stacking a Glass Charger with Gold Rim and our Athena China, paired with Fresno Matte Gold Flatware. In order to add a sense of coziness, add on a lounge area starring our Ellison Collection with Hammered Gold Coffee Tables, and a vintage rug.

Cozy Orange Tones

Warmth and intimacy define this reception theme!

Contrasting the warm tones, Glass Chargers with Black Rims peek out beneath Onyx Earthen Dessert Plates. While Brushed Copper Flatware and shiny Ivory Satin Napkins tie the look together! Outdoors, create a cozy lounge area with the Jacqueline Velvet Sofa and Adeline Dining Chairs, accented by Capri Metal Side Tables. Spruced up with soft pillows and throws, it’s the perfect spot for guests to relax, mingle, and soak in the crisp fall air.

Green & Gold

Rich green and sparkling gold are a stunning choice for fall garden weddings. A striking color combo that nods to the upcoming winter! Dress your event tables in bold Magnolia Velvet Linens paired with wood Harlin Dining Chairs for a classically elegant look. Given you want a luxurious look, top them with place settings starring gold-accented serving ware. Such as our Glass Chargers with Gold Rim, Hamlet China, and Austin Flatware.

Edgy All Black Tablescapes Ideas

At-home baby showers offer an intimate and personalized way to celebrate the upcoming arrival of a little one. And at Southern Events, we believe that even the smallest moments deserve grandeur! That’s why we’re here to guide you on how to host an elegant baby sprinkle that will impress your guests or the mom-to-be. From curated furniture and vibrant event linens to charming dinnerware and trendy props. Our expertise in event rentals will make it easy to bring your baby shower or sprinkle vision to life.

What is a Baby Sprinkle?

A smaller version of a traditional baby shower, a baby sprinkle is typically held for parents who are expecting their second or subsequent child. The term “sprinkle” conveys the idea that the event is more about a show of support, rather than showering them with extensive gifts and attention – often associated with a first-time baby shower. Largely because parents already have many of the essential baby items from their previous child. Instead, the focus is on gathering with close friends and family in a casual setting. Making it the perfect occasion to celebrate with an intimate informal dinner at home!

Stylish Dining Tables & Chairs

Transform your home into a haven of sophistication with our beautiful event furniture. Choose from a range of rentals that exude Southern charm, featuring warm woodsy tones and soft antique details. For a modern rustic vibe, consider the Aged Oak Table paired with the Harlin Dining or Cross-Back Chairs. If you’re leaning towards a brighter look, the White Antique Dining Table and Antique White Bentwood Chairs are a fantastic choice. With these curated pieces, you can easily create an unforgettable setting. Or the foundation for an elegant baby sprinkle theme.

Brightly Colored Event Linens

Set the tone for your baby sprinkle with event linens that exude charm and anticipation. Hint at the baby’s gender with bold or pastel shades. Like the Heritage Light Blue and Navy Blue Velvet for a boy. Or, the Kennedy Pink and Lilac Poly for a girl. Alternatively, embrace beautiful neutral tones! With colors like Golden Velvet or the classic Sage Poly. To infuse an extra touch of elegance, explore unique materials. Such as buttery satin, soft velvet, or lightweight linen. These will not only serve as a backdrop for your celebration but lend depth and dimension to the table.

Darling Dinner Ware

The dinner table is where memories are made and conversations flow. Make a lasting impression with our elegant and bright china. Achieve a modern look with the White Coupe China and Rattan White Wash Charger. Or opt for a softer look with the Alabaster Earthen China. Paired with charming Darcy Chargers, featuring a delicate scalloped edge. Add a hint of luxury with gold accents like the Vera Floral China. Or the Coronado pattern for a subtle pop of color. To complete your place setting, all of these pieces harmonize seamlessly with our Celia Gold Rim Glassware and Austin Flatware.

Focal Points That Delight

Create focal points that spark conversations and double as stylish props. Our bars are not only perfect for serving drinks but make for eye-catching displays. Perfect for desserts like gender reveal cakes! The Alice Bar exudes elegance. While the Chelsea Marble Top Bar adds a modern retro touch to your setup. Looking for something more playful? Our Market Cart can be easily customized with colorful balloons and signage. Adding a whimsical element to the ambiance. Consider pairing it with the Vintage Popcorn Machine that playfully declares “She’s About to Pop!”

Southern Events offers a curated selection of furnishings, linens, dinnerware, and props that help you craft an elegant baby sprinkle. Celebrate this special moment with sophistication, and let Southern style elevate every detail. Contact our team for help selecting the perfect event rentals or if you need more ideas!

Hosting a party is a wonderful way to celebrate life’s special moments with friends and family. However, in our efforts to create memorable events, we often overlook the environmental impact. From plastic disposables to excessive waste, parties can generate a considerable carbon footprint. But fear not, there is a better way! By choosing sustainable event rentals, we can reduce our ecological footprint while still throwing a stylish gathering. Explore how you can host a feel-good party by renting linens, china, and other serving pieces from Southern Events Online.

High-Quality Linens

When it comes to creating an eco-friendly tablescape, opting for sustainable linens is a fantastic choice. Instead of disposable tablecloths and paper napkins, consider renting high-quality fabric linens. Reusable tablecloths made from natural fibers like linen or cotton not only exude elegance but also reduce waste significantly. We stock a variety of options for every occasion! From whimsical pastels to bold jewel tones and sophisticated patterns. Plus, seasonally-inspired options such as Four Seasons Floral for a sunny summer soiree. Or, perhaps an Ocean Blue Velvet Tablecloth contrasted with Lavender and Hot Pink Napkins for a bold jewel-toned look.

Reusable China and Flatware

Ditch the disposable plates and cutlery in exchange for timeless china and flatware. Renting ceramic or porcelain dishes not only adds sophistication to your table settings. It also helps prevent single-use plastic waste from piling up in landfills, and your garbage cans. Stack our Darcy Charger with the Liana China, along with the Abby silver flatware for a charming vintage-inspired table. Or, for a more modern vibe, complement a Glass Charger with Black Rim and Earthen Alabaster China with Austin Gold Flatware. Need a setting that oozes luxury? You can’t go wrong with our Hamlet China – although the sleek Athena China is equally striking. Moreso when contrasted by the Noir Matte Black Flatware. Mix and match to your heart’s desire, or take a look at some of our favorite on-trend party plates for more inspiration.

Eye-Catching Glassware

One of the biggest culprits of waste at parties is plastic cups. Eliminate this waste by renting glassware for your beverages – an eye-catching alternative! From wine glasses to tumblers and everything in between, glassware rentals add a touch of class and sustainability to your party. In addition to being an easy way to infuse an extra touch of style. Take for example our Cybil glassware, with a funky modern shape. Or our beaded glassware, oozing coastal charm. Furthermore, consider using beverage dispensers for serving drinks. Not only do they look stylish, but they also minimize the need for single-use plastic bottles and cans. Infuse water with fresh fruits or herbs to create a refreshing and visually appealing drink station.

Stylish Serving Pieces

When it comes to serving food, to parties large or small, we offer a variety of options to suit your needs. Chafing dishes, which keep food warm, are excellent for buffet-style events and help reduce food waste by maintaining optimal serving temperatures. Meanwhile, family-style serving bowls encourage guests to share food, fostering a sense of community and reducing individual packaging waste. Finally, silver trays and charcuterie boards lend a touch of sophistication to your spread while avoiding disposable platters and trays.

Hosting a feel-good party with sustainable event rentals will showcase your commitment to the environment. In addition to creating a warm and inviting atmosphere for your guests!  Contact our team for help creating a unique tablescape, or if you need more ideas
