Garden-Inspired Table Linens

Nothing freshens up an outdoor table setting like a pop of color and texture from high-quality table linens. Your linens can provide the perfect backdrop for your table settings and arrangements. For garden weddings, we love our richly textured Moss Green Crush and Velvet Linens, as well as our warm and rustic Havana Cafe neutral napkins and feminine Chiffon Runners.

Intimate Lounge Areas

When it comes to a garden wedding, we love the simple, feminine charm of an intimate lounge area! Mix and match our elegant and cozy furniture, to create a welcoming place for guests to sit and stay for a while. Alongside pieces such as our sofas & loveseats, be sure to feature a few Trellis or Capri White Side Tables. Both are elegant and will add a sophisticated, feminine feel to your wedding lounge!

Peak Tent

Rain or shine, your big day is going to be beautiful. That’s why we encourage you to take away the stress and enjoy the shade (or shelter) from underneath one of our elegant tents. Featuring heavy-duty aluminum frames and block-out vinyl tops, you and your guests will stay cool in the shade beneath our Peak Frame and Hexagon Tents! Decorate them with billowing drapery and fresh flowers for a wonderful and whimsical outdoor event.

Natural Wood Dance Floor

Dancing in the grass sounds like a wonderful time- until you remember that you and your friends will be wearing heels! Prevent any fashion faux-pas and keep the party going with our New England Wood Dance Floor. The natural wood finish makes a lovely addition to the party, adding function without interrupting the aesthetic.

Here at Southern Events, we love a modern tablescape! While modern can sometimes mean stark or cold, your table design can have a modern feel and still be elegant and timeless.  With earthy elements, luxe fabrics, clean lines, and ghost chairs, we created three modern Southern tablescapes to inspire you.

#1 Modern Luxe Tablescape

Moody and glam, our modern luxe style features our Black Dupioni Linen, Carrera Marble Dinner Plates, Cybil Glassware, Sofia Flatware and Glass Chargers with Gold Rim. Taper candles in a sleek iron candle holder with carefully placed succulents as well as our Acrylic Armless Ghost Chairs, give this tablescape it’s modern lines while remaining understated. This table design would be perfect for a black tie gala, fundraiser or chic rehearsal dinner.

#2 Modern Seaside Southern Tablescape

Navy linens, relaxed china & glassware combine with an airy centerpiece and copper flatware to create a tablescape perfect for dining al fresco! For this modern seaside-inspired Southern tablescape, we used our Navy Blue Velvet Linens, Earthen China, Davis Glassware and Brushed Copper Flatware. Our Acrylic Armless Ghost Chairs once again keep this relaxed tablescape modern. Plus, we love using navy as a neutral, especially when it’s velvet.

#3 Modern Tuscan Southern Tablescape

Give your event a modern Tuscan feel! With patterned dinnerware, aqua linens and an oversized, this modern southern tablescape just needs wine! Featuring our Coronado China, Earthen China, Sofia Flatware, Davis Glassware, Ocean Blue Velvet Linens, Dove Gray Chiffon Runner, and Acrylic Armless Ghost Chairs. The bold linen and coordinating china are reminiscent of Italy art and flair, while the simple centerpiece and glassware keep this modern look the perfect fit for outdoor garden events, dinner parties and springtime wedding & baby showers.

Modern romance was the vision for our inspiration style shoot at the breathtaking Estate at Cherokee Dock in Nashville, TN. The shoot featured a dreamy pink, white and gold color palette as ee partnered with the wedding planning team from It Takes Two. Pairing romantic vintage rentals with sleek, modern rentals to create this look, we’re in love with the results!

White draping under a gorgeous magnolia tree on the estate provided the perfect canvas for a romantic outdoor affair. For our garden dining area, we paired vintage inspired Adeline Dining Chairs with Ivory Luxe Linens for texture and romantic style. Our table setting included our elegant Gatsby Champagne Coupe, Madison Glassware, and charming Darcy China combined with metallic modern accents. Our gold Austin Flatware, Vera Floral Gold Accent Dessert Plate, and Medallion Gold Glass Charger provided just enough sparkle while a beautiful floral centerpiece by Petals and Fields tied everything together.

For the ceremony, Acrylic Ghost Chairs provided an unexpected touch of modern style to the ceremony, completing the marriage modern and romantic. A few of our favorite vintage pieces, including our Vintage Harper Couch and Leona Coffee Table, were used to create intimate lounge area while our Acrylic Rectangle Containers tied back to the other modern touches.

The fabulous cake by Lillian Lane Bakery was displayed on an elegant White Chiffon Runner over our Isabel Oval Table, and surrounded the gorgeous confection with candlelight, set off in our Davis Glass Cylinders. So much to love!

The Southern Events team had a fabulous time at CJ’s off the Square in Franklin, TN, where we collaborated on their winter tasting and wedding style showcase! We worked with the team at CJ’s and Enchanted Florist to design a variety wedding style inspiration tablescapes for engaged couples getting married at this intimate garden venue. We brought along some of our most-loved wedding rentals for a truly beautiful affair!

In the garden, we paired rustic Fruitwood Farm Bistro Tables with Cross-Back Bar Stools for a cocktail style set-up. By the koi pond, our luxe Cameo Blush Velvet Linen and Cecilia Floral Matte Satin Linen gave a sumptuous variety of texture within a rosy color palette.

Boho Chic Wedding Design

In the wedding pavilion, brides and grooms-to-be were treated to a bouquet of wedding ideas and inspiration. For our Boho Chic tablescape, we featured Fruitwood Round Farm Tables and Cross-back Chairs, the natural wood set off by our Chiffon Table Runners. We paired Rogue Round Laquer Chargers with our Earthen China in Stone and Pure Glassware to achieve a relaxed and boho-inspired tablescape.

Southern Garden Glamour Wedding Design

Couples looking for more Southern garden glamour were wowed by the Garden Party wedding table. We went all out feminine with our color palette, featuring our pops of gold and soft pink with our gorgeous Gold Chiavari Chairs, Glass Chargers with Gold Rims, Austin Gold Flatware, Blair Salad/Dessert Plates. Vintage-inspired touches like our beautiful Darcy China, Champagne Lace Runners and Gatsby Champagne Coupe Glasses pulled the elegant look together while an ornate and girly centerpiece by Enchanted Florist made everyone swoon.

Modern Minimalist Wedding Design

For a modern engaged couple looking for a sleek design, our Modern Minimalist look is perfect. We kept the color palette and wedding design simple and clean, featuring our Glass Mosaic Dinner Plates and square-bottom Cybil Glassware. Our striking Brushed Copper Flatware provided a pop of color against elegant Charcoal Dupioni Linens and our classic White Resin Folding Chairs.

Moody Modern Drama Wedding Design

The Moody Modern Drama tablescape was a hit with engaged couples looking for a bold wedding design. We highlighted our Onyx Earthen China against bright ivory linens and paired our popular wooden Harlin Dining Chairs for a natural touch. Gold accents with mercury votives and Austin Gold Flatware completed the show-stopping look.

Sweetheart Table Wedding Design

For the sweetheart table, our Cowhide Rug was placed beneath a mini Fruitwood Farm Table. Then it was set with Vintage Constance Chairs and Bloom Chiffon Runner. Copper tubing and over-the-top wedding flowers made this sweetheart table design a striking focal point, fitting of the guests that will cozy up as newlyweds here!

Thanks to Nashville Wedding Photographers Jen and Chris Creed for capturing every moment and to the wonderful Nashville Wedding Venue CJ’s off the Square for their wedding design and planning.

We love an ethereal design that pulls light colors and soft fabric from the days of disco without jumping into a time capsule. A Dreamy Disco design takes 1970s flair and gives it a contemporary feel- pastel greens and peaches are soft and sweet while bold gold accents liven up the party. Silky smooth velvet invokes a classic 70s vibe while a more modern design keeps the party in the present day. We love a Dreamy Disco for weddings, tea parties, ladies’ luncheons or corporate events looking to channel 70s Dolly Parton.
