Dreaming of the Amalfi Coast? With European picnic rentals from Southern Event Rentals, you can bring that effortless, sun-drenched charm straight to your backyard. Ideal for hosting a stylish dinner party, garden gathering, or milestone celebration, this on-trend look pairs vintage-inspired china, citrus tones, and rich wood textures for a casual yet elevated setting. With thoughtfully curated rentals and plenty of summer flavor, we’ll help you design a scene that feels like an Italian escape—no passport required.

Taste of Italy

Every unforgettable European picnic begins with an al fresco table, and we have just the pieces to bring that Amalfi Coast flair to life. Layer our Coronado China, with its sophisticated motif, and minimalist Artisan or Earthen Alabaster China to create a collected, curated feel. Add texture and warmth with our Walnut Rattan Chargers. A classic choice that pairs beautifully with Cornflower Costa Nova Napkins and Aged Oak Dining Table. Whether you prefer bold citrus colors or soft neutrals, these versatile rentals provide the perfect foundation for a table that’s as delicious to look at as the food served on it.

Sit Back and Savor

Creating a space where guests can relax and linger is key to capturing that slow, celebratory European vibe. And our seating options are designed for just that! The Cross-Back Chair offers timeless rustic charm. Or the Antique White Bentwood Chair brings a touch of vintage elegance with a light, breezy look. For communal-style gatherings, our Rustic Benches encourage closeness and conversation. And the Adeline Dining Chair adds an elevated, graceful touch. Mixed and matched or styled uniformly, these seating choices feel both inviting and effortlessly chic.

Clink in Color

No picnic is complete without beautiful glassware that shines in the evening sun. Our collection delivers both color and charm. Pour a chilled spritz into our beaded Meridian Blue Glasses for a pop of coastal cool, or serve rosé in the softly-hued Sunset Wine Glass for a golden-hour glow. For a nod to vintage glamour, the Gatsby Coupe Glass brings timeless elegance to your bubbly. Meanwhile, the Deco Amber Tumbler adds just the right amount of retro flair. These standout pieces don’t just hold your drinks, they help set the mood.

Coastline Comfort

When the sun dips low and the wine keeps flowing, a lounge setup is the perfect way to extend the evening without losing that laid-back, oceanside vibe. Our Ellison Sofa and matching chairs bring effortless coastal elegance to any backyard setting. Crafted from weathered teak and topped with crisp white cushions. Complete the look with the coordinating coffee table for a cohesive feel. Or, keep it simple when you feature the Estelle Quarter Round Sofa with gold hammered side tables for a subtle hint of shine. Whether guests are sipping limoncello or sharing stories under the string lights, this lounge invites them to stay a little longer.
