Regal Event Linens

Let’s start by putting together a place setting fitting for a queen! Depending on the table featured at your event, you may want linens. The exception being tables with natural wood tabletops, like or Fruitwood Farm Table, which you’ll want to show off.

As of late any of our velvet linens have been a hit, as the plush materials is effective at lending a regal look to any tablescape. You can’t go wrong with neutral colors, such as black, white or taupe. Although, rich colors will contrast beautifully with metallic accents. Our current favorites include Magnolia Green and Navy Blue! However, if you want a tablescape that looks like it came straight from the Regency Era, consider our Gold & Ivory Fresco, Blue Kensington, or Ivory Pearl Shalimar Linens.

Opulent China

By far our most popular china for a luxe event is our Athena China, with its sleek gold border. For an especially regal look, consider or Ophelia or Hamlet China, with their more intricate designs. All of these pieces pair well with any of our glass chargers – elegant pieces that don’t take away from the fabulous gold accented china. We have a variety of options depending on your color scheme or style, including glass chargers with black, gold, silver, and even a beaded rim.

For flatware, we recommend either our beautiful Fresno or Abby Flatware. The Gold Matte color and bulky shape of Fresno will lend a big statement. Meanwhile, the dainty Abby Flatware is luxe yet understated. A better option if your china and charger is bold!

Luxe Barware

Every social event requires a bar and fresh beverages! Make sure you serve your drinks in glassware that suits your regal theme. Our Audrey Glassware is a dainty but timeless option, featuring a sleek design and luxe gold rim. Meanwhile, our Monaco Glassware has an intricate design that is sure to ‘wow’ your guests. Or, consider the simple Champagne Gatsby Coupe glasses, fitting pieces for a more casual event.

A Grand Event Entrance

Upon arriving at the venue, guests were welcomed inside via a red carpet. To create a more elegant entrance, the walls were lined with white draping. Our Loren Gold Bistro Table was set up to greet guests, along with some bubbly! The Gold Boxwood Wall was decorated with white shelving for flutes and a custom neon sign, making for a fun photo op.

Gold & Ivory Tablescapes

Matching the theme, the dinner tables were created using gold and ivory serving ware. To make the most of the space, we used a mix of round and rectangular tables, along with our classic Gold Chiavari Chairs. They were dressed in coordinated linens, including Gold Furrow, Ivory Pearl Shalimar, and Victorian Gold Luxe. Each place setting featured a gold or silver charger, along with our stunning Ophelia or Hamlet China, and Austin Flatware.

Luxe & Comfy Lounges

For any fundraiser or gala to be a success, you need comfy areas for guests to relax and converse. Throughout the event space, we created a range of small and large lounges. The largest being our neutral Pearce Lounge, complemented with the sleek Blanche Coffee Table. Smaller areas included a pair of Fantasma Acrylic Chairs and a trio of Cheval Gold Mirror Side Tables. And our always popular white leather Mercer Collection!

Spaces for Entertainment

The focal point of the gala was an expansive white dance floor set to our Harpeth Stage Facade. Set to the beautiful white drapery and crystal curtains, it was a stunning setting for dancing & celebrating. On either side, bars were also accessible. And they were stocked with a variety of classic glassware, including Martini and Highball Glasses, plus Champagne Flutes.

Custom Bar & Food Displays

With such a large event space, we wanted to ensure that food and drinks were easily accessible from any point. In addition to being welcomed with champagne, guests could access a bar both indoors and outdoors. Our elegant white Harpeth bars were outfitted with a custom insert to match the gold & ivory gala theme. A pair of gold bar back shelves were also used to display some sweet treats and was adjacent to a small coffee bar.

We were delighted to work with the team at Double Creek Farms in beautiful Culleoka, TN to create this gorgeous, gothic rustic wedding inspiration. Mood elegance with chic rustic details is a favorite wedding trend and the warm wood walls and soaring arched ceilings of this gorgeous wedding venue south of Nashville provided the perfect backdrop.

Lush greenery wove through gold and marble accents, including our Carrera Marble Dinner Plates. Each color set off perfectly against white washed farm tables and soft blush linens. This moody, dramatic design with a rustic twist is perfect for upcoming fall weddings or winter celebrations and parties.

For our table settings, we paired our popular Austin Flatware and the gorgeous Carrera Marble Dinner Plates with our glass Belmont Charger and Pure Glassware. The result was a mix of modern wedding design with stunning vintage elegance! Subtle color from our Wedgewood Poly and Blush Shimmer linens completed the event design white gold geometric accents like our Gold Metal Sphere added sparkle to the tablescape.
