Southern Events Products

Supporting image

Are you planning an event in Music City? Whether it’s a child’s birthday party, a chic cocktail gathering, or an anniversary celebration, creating a memorable experience for your guests requires thoughtful planning. With Southern Events, you’ll find everything you need to elevate your occasion, from simple DIY solutions to luxurious custom touches. Check out some of our favorite Nashville party rental ideas featuring our stylish event rentals!

The Perfect Blend: DIY and Luxe Party Rentals

Nashville is renowned for its creativity and charm, and your event can reflect just that. The right mix of party rentals can bring a unique flair to any gathering, offering versatility for hosts who want to get hands-on with DIY projects or prefer a polished, professional finish.

Market Cart

Our Market Cart is a charming piece, perfect for creating a variety of different ‘stations’. Transform it into a delightful candy station by filling jars with colorful sweets where guests can load up on treats. For outdoor events, it makes for a convenient drink stand, whether you’re serving up lemonade or batch mocktails in beverage dispensers. Alternatively, convert it into a flower cart where attendees can assemble their own party favors by designing bouquets with fresh blooms.

Popcorn Machine Package

This vintage-inspired Popcorn Machine Package adds a nostalgic and interactive element to any event. It’s a showstopper for a movie night setup when paired with a cozy outdoor lounge area. For a snack station, set up a nearby toppings bar where guests can customize their own treats. Hosting a carnival-themed event? Use the popcorn machine alongside striped tablecloths and festive decor to create an authentic atmosphere. As a final touch, provide small bags so guests can take some popcorn home as party favors.

Ticket Booth

A Ticket Booth is a whimsical rental that can serve multiple purposes. Turn it into a guestbook station where attendees can leave notes or Polaroid photos as keepsakes. It’s also a fantastic photo prop—decorate it with flowers or balloons to create a fun photo booth setup. For family gatherings or activity-focused events, use the ticket booth to distribute game tickets. It can even double as an entrance checkpoint, stylishly organizing guest check-ins or seating assignments.

White 6-Tier Serving Tower

This unique serving tower is an elegant addition to any event. Its tiers are perfect for showcasing desserts like cupcakes, macarons, or mini cheesecakes, turning your sweets into a visual centerpiece. For brunch gatherings, use it to artfully arrange bagels, muffins, and fruit. If you’re hosting a cocktail party, it can hold garnishes like lemon wedges, olives, and herbs for a DIY cocktail bar. As guests leave, the tower can also serve as a favor display, elegantly presenting small gifts or mementos.

Franklin 4 Foot Antique White Bar

Our Franklin 4 Foot Antique White Bar exudes sophistication and versatility. Use it as a signature drink station, offering custom cocktails or mocktails that align with your event’s theme. For a cozy gathering, transform it into a coffee bar complete with syrups, toppings, and an assortment of mugs. It also doubles as a dessert bar, showcasing cakes, pies, or pastries – elevated with mismatched cake stands. Alternatively, set it up as a welcoming area, adorned with floral arrangements, a guestbook, or champagne for celebratory toasts.

Black Bookcase

The Black Bookcase brings a sleek, modern touch to your event design. As a bar backdrop, it’s ideal for displaying trendy bottles and glassware, adding a professional touch to your beverage area. For an interactive experience, consider displaying your favorite bourbons for a tasting experience. For parties with favors or goodie bags, the bookcase provides a stylish and organized way to present them. Additionally, it’s perfect for themed decor—fill its shelves with props, books, or collectibles to align with your event’s aesthetic.

Luxury Nashville Wedding at the Hermitage Hotel

Real Nashville Weddings, Southern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration

luxury nashville wedding at the nashville public library

Kacy and Michael’s luxury Nashville wedding was a celebration of style and sophistication, beginning with an elegant rehearsal dinner at the Hermitage Nashville and culminating in a stunning reception at the Nashville Public Library. From the custom champagne tower to the literary-themed reception, every detail was thoughtfully curated to reflect the couple’s unique taste. With the help of Southern Events, their vision came to life through carefully selected rentals that added an extra touch of luxury and charm to their unforgettable celebration.

Sipping in Style

While the pair didn’t host a hotel wedding, the Hermitage Nashville was an idyllic backdrop for their sophisticated rehearsal dinner. The celebration started with an elegant cocktail hour, where guests gathered around our 6-foot Thompson White Bar, elevated with a custom bar menu on a banner. The real star of the show however was the champagne tower. It featured Gatsby Coupe Glasses filled with champagne and edible flowers, delicately stacked atop the Chelsea Marble Top Bar. To keep guests comfortable, tables in blue patterned linens and wood Harlin Dining Chairs were placed nearby.

A Refined Rehearsal Dinner

In addition to fun spring-inspired cocktails, Kacy and Michael’s guests enjoyed a catered dinner in the Veranda. It was a stunning backdrop, with the floor-to-ceiling cathedral windows and a ceiling painted to look like blue cloud-filled skies. Here, a single banquet table was outfitted in ivory linens, contrasted by classic black Chiavari Chairs with white padding. Place settings were simple, featuring White Coupe China, Bradley Flatware, and Pure Glassware. While fresh flowers and bright blue menus provided a romantic splash of color.

Dinner & Dancing Among the Stacks

The couple’s ceremony took place in the lobby of the Nashville Public Library. Afterward, the wedding reception was hosted in the Grand Reading Room. Guests spent an evening in elegance with a dash of scholarly charm, surrounded by rich wood paneling and shelves filled with literary classics. The wedding party sat at a long banquet table and guests at round. The crisp white table linens offered a sleek look in contrast to the cozy wood Cross-Back Chairs. Set against our luxurious Ophelia China and Austin Gold Flatware, soft blue linens were a fun splash of color.

Following dinner, guests were treated to the wedding cake. It was perched beautifully atop a table draped in our soft blue-hued Somerset Linens. A Full Oval Bar was close by, the perfect size to accommodate the newlywed’s large guest count. Meanwhile, a black and white dance floor in combination with the vaulted ceilings offered the illusion of a luxurious ballroom wedding. A custom stage with white podiums lined with florals made for an elegant backdrop, in addition to housing the live band.
