As the weather warms up there is no better time to host a corporate event. Blue skies and sunshine open up a world of possibilities in terms of creative entertainment and event design. At Southern Events Party Rentals Online, we have a little something for every occasion and celebration! From stylish cocktail hour essentials to cozy event lounges. Perfect for toasting an anniversary, thanking partners and clients, or treating your employees. Get inspired by these unique corporate event themes, perfect for the spring and summer seasons!

Spring Has Sprung

The season of new beginnings, spring is a fitting time to treat your employees to a party that will leave them feeling reenergized. This is one of the more simple corporate event themes, yet it is sure to be a memorable event. We recommend hosting outdoors, to make the most of the seasonal foliage – think of it as natural decor! Scatter a mix of bistro and round tables on the lawn, dressed up with Peaches N’ Cream Poly and our elegant Harlin Dining Chairs. For additional seating, feature a chic neutral lounge area made up of our Bennett Leather Sofa, Adeline Dining Chairs, Chocolate Poufs, and a Navy Rug. To encourage guests to stay awhile, provide them with a stocked Franklin Antique White Bar and grazing boards served up on Wood Melamine Trays.

Off to the Races

The Kentucky Derby may only last two minutes, but it is a highly anticipated and celebrated sporting event. In terms of themed corporate events, there is no better time to host a party. Running with existing events or holidays makes it easier than ever to piece together a theme, and a high-class Derby Party is one of our personal favorites. Start with stylish bistro tables, like a classic bistro table dressed up with Cherry Red Poly Linens. Or the Loren Gold Bistro Table with a Black and White Striped Runner and Acrylic Ghost Barstools. Place an artificial grass rug beneath them for a fun spring touch! A fully stocked bar is essential – try Harpeth customized with your business logo – set against a pair of Boxwood Walls. Classic glassware, like Mint Julep Cups and Davis Rocks Glass, is perfect for serving up bourbon-based cocktails.

Upscale Summer BBQ

A simple but always exciting event theme idea is a classic summer BBQ. A backyard BBQ is fitting for a casual celebration, say an employee appreciation day or even ‘just because’. You don’t need a reason to get together and grill out! Set up picnic tables with Red & White Check Linens. If kids are attending, check out our children’s furniture. For some contrast, feature our Earthen Onyx China and crisp White Napkins. Should you need serving trays, check out our family-style serving pieces. Whether you want a self-serve bar or food display, opt for our Whiskey Barrel Barnwood Bar. For added colors, a mix of vintage rugs will create an extra cozy vibe! Moreso should you feature a fire pit surrounded by poufs and rustic benches.

Black and White Party

If you are hosting an elegant corporate party, you can’t go wrong with a black and white event theme. A grayscale color palette will also make it incredibly easy to put together a cohesive look. Start with classic bistro tables outfitted in our beautiful Black Nova Linens, paired with Mid Century Black Barstools. If you’ll be toasting to the occasion, you’ll need a stylish bar and glassware to match. Our Black Franklin Antique Bar is a bold choice, as is a White 6-Tier Serving Tower. Should you need additional storage space, be sure to grab a set of barback shelves in black or white. For glassware, take a look at our Cybil Champagne Glasses or trendy coupe glasses.

In a post-pandemic world, the health and happiness of employees is a priority for many companies and business owners. A focus that your team and attendees will appreciate, especially during a conference, convention or corporate summit. Today we’ll share how you can create corporate wellness rooms to help maintain positive and motivated participants!

Create an Ambient Setting

The first step you’ll want to take when creating corporate wellness rooms is selecting a designated area or areas within your event space. We recommend selecting an area that is a ways away from the primary room in use so that your guests can fully escape the hustle and bustle – whether you are hosting a training session or an annual meeting. Once established, pipe and drape can be used to enclose a space. This will help create a more private and ambient setting, in which guests can sit back, relax, and recharge. Choose from a range of beautiful and calming colors, such as black, ivory and white. If you like, you can even designate this area as a quiet or non-tech space!

Lounge Areas

Within your wellness room, you’ll want some comforts that encourage guests to sit and stay for a while. Specifically, lounge areas where people can casually converse or even meditate for a time. Start with cozy neutral or warm colored furniture, like our Bennett Leather Sofa or Henley Grey Velvet Tufted Sofa. Pair it with a set of accent chairs, like our beautiful Gloria Velvet Arm Chairs. Then, finish it off with a plush area rug and a set of matching coffee and side tables. Avoid any pieces that are too contemporary and might give off a cold feeling! Of course, you can also choose from our selection of beautiful lounge packages (we recommend #03 or #26). If you prefer, you can also create smaller areas using our bistro tables and bistro chairs.

Food & Beverage Stations

In addition to helping your guests relax you also want to help them recharge. A scrumptious food and beverage station will help keep them satiated and in tune for a long day of meetings or workshops. Start with an elegant display shelf, like our Black Bar Back Shelf – to store a selection of simple water goblets or other glassware. Nearby, keep refreshing cucumber water or similar beverages in a Glass Beverage Jar. Display snack foods, like fresh fruit or vegetables, in our white family-style service pieces for light on-the-go bites. Accompanied by simple white china! If you’ve been approved for alcoholic beverages, a stylish and well-stocked bar never hurt either.

Lounges are now as essential to events as tables & chairs. The trend towards a sleek and sophisticated space at corporate events, social galas, or glam weddings is making Modern Lounges popular in event design. Chrome accents and clean lines accompanied with bright white seating give any lounge area a modern ambiance while still maintaining a professional look. We love how lounges create intimate spaces at events for guests to relax, for couples to snuggle and for attendees to socialized.
