Planning a toddler’s birthday party in your own backyard offers the perfect blend of comfort, fun, and flexibility. Whether you’re envisioning a whimsical garden tea party, a colorful carnival celebration, or a simple playdate with family and friends, the right rentals can help you create a safe and stylish environment that makes your little one feel celebrated. At Southern Events, we specialize in toddler birthday party rentals designed to elevate any theme while prioritizing child-sized comfort and big kid fun.

The Importance of Child-Sized Furniture

When hosting a birthday party for toddlers, it’s crucial to think from their perspective—literally. Adult-sized furniture can be intimidating or uncomfortable for young children, especially during a meal or activity. Choose from:

• Children’s Fruitwood Farm Table – A rustic yet refined option for a countryside tea party or woodland-themed birthday.
• Children’s Acrylic Chiavari Chair – Crystal-clear and elegant, perfect for a fairy-tale or winter wonderland theme.
• Gold Bow Chair – Adds a regal touch for princess-themed celebrations or tea parties.
• White Resin Folding Chair – Clean and modern; pairs well with bold linens or colorful decor.
• Cross Back Chair – Perfect for barnyard, garden, or vintage-style parties.
• Chiavari Chairs in Fruitwood, White, and Pink – Choose a color that complements your palette and theme.

Creating a Cohesive Theme with Versatile Rentals

Every toddler has their favorite characters, colors, and activities—and our goal is to bring those favorites to life through rentals that are as adorable as they are practical. Start with a simple foundation like a pop-up tent for shade. These tents come in various sizes and protect guests from the sun or rain, allowing the party to go on no matter the weather.

Next, add decorative and functional accents to elevate the experience. A market cart makes a fun and flexible centerpiece. Use it to display cupcakes, serve lemonade, or create a drop-off zone for gifts. Our white 6-tier serving tower is a favorite for showcasing sweet treats or party favors. While bookshelves in black, white, or gold can be transformed into themed displays for books, plush toys, or goody bags.

Want a showstopper centerpiece? Set up the scalloped Ellie Gold Cake Stand or a sleek glass cake stand for your little one’s birthday cake. These stands photograph beautifully and give your dessert the attention it deserves.

Making Room for Activities

Toddlers love to move, and a safe, stable surface is essential when planning games or activities. Our dance floors are not just for weddings and formal events. Available in colors like black and white, plank wood, and solid black, they create a clean and secure space for toddlers to dance, jump, and play. Dance floors also serve as a great place for group games, sing-alongs, or parachute play.

And because hydration is just as important as playtime, our vintage washtubs are a charming way to keep kid-friendly drinks within easy reach. Stock them with juice boxes or water bottles, and place them near play or dining areas for convenience.

Add a Pop of Personality with Linens and Decor

One of the easiest ways to tie your theme together is through linens. Southern Events offers a variety of fun and festive table linens to suit any party concept. Some fun kid-friendly favorites:

• Black & White Stripe – Perfect for circus or animal themes.
• Mango Tango – Bright and citrusy, great for tropical or summer parties.
• Pink Sequins – A hit for princess, unicorn, or ballerina parties.
• Lagoon Poly – Adds a splash of sea-blue for under-the-sea or mermaid vibes.

Our design team can help you mix and match colors and textures for a cohesive and curated look that brings your toddler’s theme to life.

Vibrant and whimsical, these colorful backyard party ideas that are sure to bring some wonder & whimsy to your next Nashville, Tennessee event. Perfect for a kid’s birthday party, fun gender reveal party or daytime wedding, check out how we use our party rentals to create a bold & colorful look that is timeless, stylish and fun!

Mix & Match Furniture

Keep your event casual yet maintain a consistent aesthetic with a mix of furniture that complements one another. By using Barnwood Furniture of a variety of shapes, you can make the most of the space and also feature some statement pieces. Take for example our beautiful Fruitwood Farm Tables. In regards to chairs, we used a mix of rustic benches and our elegant Cross-back chairs. Although simple, it creates a foundation from which to add color!

Metallic Place Settings

An easy way to add warmth to a colorful backyard event is with gold or silver accents. Featuring our Gold Round Lacquer Charger and Austin Flatware, adds a touch of metallics that contrasts beautifully against turquoise centerpieces. It also complements the golden yellows and sunset-inspired oranges throughout the event design. Don’t forget to pull these accents into other parts of your events with gold-rimmed glasses on your bar or gold side tables in your lounge. This creates a more cohesive look.

Bold Centerpieces

When it comes to table centerpieces people often feel the need to use matching pieces. A colorful backyard party is a perfect time to experiment with creative shapes and colors. This tablescape features a mix of vases, in teal, white, gold and clear glass – easy for a DIY backyard party. For candles, we suggest varying heights to add some dimension (though you can also create this with taller arrangements). As far as flowers go, consider keeping it simple but bright with a variety of wildflowers. Orange & yellow tones perfectly contrasted and popped against the teal and white glassware!

Vibrant Linens

Vibrant linens are so much fun! The use of bright colors will lend a sense of liveliness to your event, plus make your event photos pop. Don’t be afraid to use different linens for each table either! Note how we were careful to switch up the color of our table centerpieces depending on the linen color. As a general rule: place lighter colored centerpieces on dark tablecloths and vice versa. Our Fuschia Etched Velvet Linens with their gold veining would be a another way to bring in a subtle metallic accent and a bold pop of color.

Nashville Baby Guide Launch ~ The Lodge in Franklin

Kid-friendly spaces at events help children feel special while allowing for overall seamless event design. When creating and designing events for clients, we see no reason why the little ones can’t also have adorable areas to sit and eat! From whimsical pink and white chairs to adorably sophisticated cross-back chairs and beyond, we believe matching the kid areas with the rest of the event is a wonderful way to say “ultimate chic”. Check out this previous post for some of our favorite kid-friendly wedding reception rentals.

We recently created a few kid-approved looks for the Nashville Baby Guide Launch Party. If you’re here for sweet pink, charming blue, and trendy flamingos, then you’re in the right place! Pairing our Pink Chiavari Children’s Chair with our classy Fruitwood Children’s Farm Table, we designed inviting spaces for kids to enjoy oops-free meals on our Melamine Dinnerware. The kids’ areas coordinated beautifully with sophisticated adult areas. Hob Nob Glassware and Fuschia Etched Velvet Linens helped hold the playful vibe while staying “grown-up” and chic.

Pro tip: Simple activities such as adorable coloring areas help keep children busy while moms enjoy their “Mom-osas”

While some couples opt for an adults only celebration, many newlyweds enjoy having the entire family in tow for their big days – and we can’t blame them! After all, what’s cuter than an adorable ring bearer or flower girl? With our rentals, it’s easy to make kids feel extra special without compromising your chosen event design and style. Minature sized tables and chairs in a variety of designs allow couples to seamlessly integrate little ones into their big days.

Kids Chairs and Tables

Whatever your event design, we have a Kid’s Chair and Table to match. No, really! Chiavari Chairs in white, brown, and even pink keep your event chic and upscale, while children-sized Cross-back Chairs and Children’s Farm Tables allow you to keep that rustic or boho style. We also have High-Chairs and Booster Seats for your smallest wedding guests.

Melamine Service Pieces

Chic yet durable, our Melamine Service Pieces make it so your event is oops-proof. No need to break out the plastic and other normal kid-proof dinnerware – our collection of sleek and durable Melamine gets the job done and looks beautiful doing so.

Sutton Furniture

Kids are bound to get sleepy, especially at events that last well into the evening. Give them somewhere to take a nap or even call it a night with our comfortable Sutton Furniture. Another big plus: this outdoor friendly collection is waterproof, meaning an accidental spill is no big deal. They’re cozy and stylish and can be configured in multiple different ways – and did we mention the collection comes in two gorgeous colors?
