There’s nothing quite like a celebration in an open or breezy setting—where the wine flows, the vibes are relaxed, and the décor feels straight out of a dream. Whether you’re hosting in a backyard, on a covered patio, or in a venue with an open-air feel, it’s your chance to impress without the fuss. At Southern Events, we help you rent outdoor furniture and curated event rentals that look just as stunning under the sun as they do under a roof. Take a peek at the versatile essentials that will have guests swooning before the appetizers even hit the table.

Lounge in Style

Step one to an effortlessly chic outdoor event? A stylish lounge setup. It invites guests to relax, mingle, and sip in comfort. Set the scene with the plush Fern Velvet Sofa, paired with sleek Adeline Dining Chairs and glam Gold Hammered Accent Tables. Want something a little moodier? The Bennett Leather Sofa delivers major wow, especially alongside our Bellamy Beige Linen Bench and Charlotte Side Tables. Complete the look with a vintage rug for a lounge that doesn’t just say “sit here.” It says, “Stay awhile.”

Dine Like You Mean It

Forget the fuss of folding tables—your dinner setup should be just as beautiful as the scenery. We’re talking long, rustic tables made for shared plates and laughter. Our Fruitwood Farm Tables with Rustic Benches are a go-to for a laid-back yet refined vibe. Or go a little more elevated with the Aged Oak Dining Table and classic Cross-back Chairs. A classic combo that looks like it belongs on the pages of a bridal magazine.

The Tabletop Glow-Up

This is where the magic happens. Your tablescape is your chance to tell a story. And we have all the charming details to help you do it. Start with earth-toned linens, like a bold Copper Poly or a Natural Sahara Runner. Then layer in one-of-a-kind chargers like the Walnut or Rattan White Wash. Mix in dinnerware like the Earthen Alabaster China or romantic Emmie Floral China for personality and polish. If you’re going for a simpler look, or create an elegant stack with the Gwyneth Glass Charger and China. Finish the look with the charming Abby Flatware or glam Austin Gold Flatware.

Serve It Up

Sure, you’ve nailed the vibe—but the food service matters, too. That’s where our serving rentals come in. Keep things classy and coordinated with chafing dishes, white melamine family-style trays, and silver serving pieces. Plus, oval bread baskets and display trays for hors d’oeuvres or sweets. For drinks, set up a stylish hydration station with carafes, pitchers, and glass beverage dispensers that blend form and function. It’s the little things that make hosting feel seamless and oh-so polished.

Vintage Fruit Crates are beautiful when displayed next to a drink station or part of your buffet table, creating a nostalgic event design. We also love them for the extra items that make outdoor parties more comfortable – like sunscreen and bug spray.
