If you’ve been dreaming of an event that is equal parts moody and elegant, then you won’t want to overlook the boho luxe style. Featuring beautifully contrasting colors and geometric details. Keep reading for some boho luxe inspiration from a recent wedding we participated in at Saddlewood Farms in Tennessee.

Hosted on the grass lawn, the wedding ceremony was a classic bohemian affair with luxe decor. Guests were seated in our simple White Folding Chairs. While the aisle was lined with Cowhide Rugs and arrangements featuring dried palms and fresh roses. For a backdrop, the two opted for a solid black Triangle Wedding Arbor. It was the perfect choice to ensure that the two stood out against the lush forest.

Afterward, they retired to the large reception bar, where string lights dripped from the ceiling and walls. The space was practically glowing, with the most beautiful soft light. Guests were immediately greeted by our white Harpeth Curved Bar, making it approachable from any side. For a one-of-a-kind look, don’t forget to opt for a custom bar sign!

The dinner tables were outfitted in slick black linens with short floral centerpieces that lent a fun touch of texture. They were set with our Classic White Square China, Hammered Flatware, and Davis glassware. For linens, they opted for our stunning Azalea Poly, a moody yet feminine color. The couple’s sweetheart table was equally luxe, featuring our Fruitwood Farm Table with Ghost Acrylic Armless Chairs. Davis Glass Cylinders sat on the floor with pillar candles, making it especially romantic.

Of course, what is a wedding without designated areas for mingling? Flanking the bar was our sleek white Mercer Lounge. It was topped with matching florals and soft pillows – to make it extra cozy! To ensure guests could make full use of the lush event space, other small lounges sat just outside the barn. Including small accent tables, where people could set their food and drinks. They were decorated with pure black linens that manicured lawn.

Functional and stylish rentals, Southern Events offers a range of area rugs for events & weddings. Although simple, a beautiful decorative rug will lend to an all-around cohesive event space. Whether they are used to line an aisleway or placed beneath the featured furniture. You go to major lengths to decorate and furnish the space in a way that aligns with your event, and the floor is the foundation! Take a look at our in-stock area rugs and how you can feature one or several at your upcoming Nashville event.

Tie it All Together

Area rugs are more than just decoration. Take for example the use of layered rugs as an aisle runner. Our Brown & White Cowhide Rug and Dark Brown Cowhide Rug are perfect for a trendy urban desert wedding ceremony. Meanwhile, our vintage-inspired rugs look stunning for a cozy, boho-themed affair. Feel free to layer them up or use one standalone alongside a ceremony backdrop.

Frame a Space

Rugs assist in creating a frame in which to place the furniture. A trick that is especially useful for social areas, like a cocktail lounge. Consider using a rug to lead guests from the bar to a lounge area. It will help prevent your guests from huddling around the bar and encourage them to sit down, get comfortable, and stay for a while. See how our clients have used a range of area rugs for events & weddings, including our Navy and Aqua Rugs.

A Cohesive Design

Similar to cocktail lounges, rugs can be placed beneath standalone furniture to help create a more cohesive aesthetic. Without one, it can feel as though your furniture may float away! A rug can also help tie different areas together that would otherwise look out of place. Featured below, our vintage Blue-Red Rugs were used to accent a whiskey-barrel bar and create a charming buffet area. And to create a stylish outdoor cocktail area, it was placed beneath our Loren Gold Bistro Table.
