There’s something about beautiful linens that instantly set the tone for an event.

Whether you are planning a wedding, gala, or corporate celebration, table linen rentals from Southern Events can take your space from simple to stunning! Get inspired by the latest additions to our inventory, with styling tips and tricks that guarantee a visually stunning tablescape.

All Eyes on the Table

Your tablescape is where guests spend the most time, making it the perfect place to showcase your style. Our inventory features a variety of tablecloth rentals, runners, and napkins that can serve as your backdrop or your focal point. These are a few of our current favorites:

• Blue Floral Linen – A timeless pattern reminiscent of classic toile, perfect for garden parties or elegant brunches
• Green Meadow Linen – A whimsical mix of green with bright pops of color, evoking a wildflower field in bloom
• Regalia Velvet Linen – Deep black velvet adorned with bold florals and regal peacock motifs for a dramatic, luxe look
• Verdant Bloom Linen – A contemporary field of cool-toned blue and green blooms for a fresh, editorial feel

Want to create depth? Layer a patterned runner over a solid cloth, or add napkins in a complementary shade to tie everything together.

What Size Linens Do I Need for My Event Tables?

The right size is key for a polished look. A standard 60-inch round table typically needs a 120-inch round tablecloth for a floor-length drop. For an 8-foot banquet table, a 90×156-inch linen will provide full coverage. If you prefer a more casual, mid-length look, opt for a shorter size. Not sure what will fit? Our team can guide you through measurements so every table is perfectly dressed.

How Much Does It Cost to Rent Linens for a Wedding?

Pricing depends on the fabric, size, and style. For standard polyester linens, expect to spend $10 to $25 per tablecloth. Specialty fabrics like velvet, satin, or sequined designs may range from $60 to $90 or more. Napkins, runners, and overlays are typically priced separately. Many couples find that investing in quality linens is worth it for the cohesive look and the time saved on cleaning and setup.

Beyond the Table

Linens are not just for dining tables. Use them to dress cocktail tables for a chic gathering space, drape a dessert table for a coordinated look, or cover buffet stations so they blend seamlessly with your décor. With the right fabric and color, linens can turn any functional space into a design feature.
