Sometimes less is more, and modern minimalist events prove just that! There is beauty to be found in simplicity, not to mention it often comes with a smaller decor budget. Less cluttered, modern minimalism can make it feel easier to breathe within your event space, without compromising style. Learn how to host a modern minimalist event when you take a look at our in-stock rentals that will lend a clean and timeless look.

Clean Tablescapes

To achieve a modern minimalist table, you’ll want to keep any decor simple and maintain as much open space as possible – perhaps stick to greenery! As for serving ware, opt for pieces that are sleek. Such as our Earthen China, available in 3 neutral colors, or Plain Glass China. Easily feature an elegant pop of metallics with our simple Austin Gold or Noir Matte Black Flatware. For a romantic minimalist table, feature a touch of color in your otherwise neutral palette with a set of our poly napkins. Perhaps in Ice Pink, Slate, or Lilac! Or, grab a velvet set for subtle texture.

Stylish Guest Seating

Of course, your dinner tables will need chairs, of which we have many to choose from. For a modern event design, we recommend sticking to pieces that feature neutral colors and simple details. Any of our acrylic chairs are a great option, which will lend a unique contemporary look to your event. Both our Acrylic Ghost Arm Chairs and Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs are a popular choice! For a slightly more romantic vibe, or to complement a warm-toned palette, you might opt for our Harlin Dining Chairs.

Sleek Lounge Areas

As always, every event needs a lounge to socialize. And one of our personal favorites are modern minimalist event lounges, starring clean & elegant furniture. We have a wide selection of timeless pieces that you can mix and match to create a one-of-a-kind social area. To start, choose a plush sofa, like our Regent Black Velvet Sofa – perfect for a moody minimalist lounge! Then, add-on chairs, such as one of our acrylic pieces or our unique White Eiffel Arm Chairs. And don’t forget to include areas for guests to set their drinks! We’re currently favoring our Rhodes, Rivet and Granger accent tables, with their sleek legs.

With regal and royal trending in event design, we’re all about appreciating the finer things in life – including black-tie dinner parties! This theme is perfect for adding an upscale feel to any celebration, whether it be a birthday, anniversary, reunion, corporate achievement, and so on. Plus, planning a formal event is easier than ever, thanks to our elegant in-stock event rentals. Check out our serving ware, furniture, and decor that can be used to elevate your tablescape and impress your dinner guests!

Elegant Serving Ware

Black tie event design is all about luxury! For the table, we offer a range of stylish serving ware that suits any palette and style. White China is always a good start, whether you prefer Round plates or a more charming design, like Darcy. For a more moody table, opt for Earthen Onyx or Stone China. And should you prefer a more glam look, check out pieces that feature metallics. Such as our Glass Charger with a Gold Rim or Medallion Gold Glass Charger. If you want a touch of color, take a look at our gold accented Laguna or Coronado China.

Just don’t forget to grab matching flatware! Our Gold Austin and Abby Flatware are always popular. Meanwhile, the Noir Matte Black and Como Flatware are edgy yet stylish.

Luxe Seating

Although your own dining chairs will do just fine, swapping your seating for a special evening can make a big impact. It also makes for more cohesive black-tie dinner parties! We offer a variety of stylish seating options, from more traditional designs to unique contemporary pieces. Our Harlin Dining Chairs are ideal for luxe Southern-inspired gatherings, as our the Adeline Chairs. Whereas the Acrylic Carrigan Side Chairs offer a more modern but equally formal look! Then there is the always popular Chiavari Chairs, available in four beautiful colors, which look stunning in any setting.

Hosting a black-tie wedding or black-tie corporate event? Don’t fret! We have plenty of seating in stock for small parties as well as large gatherings.

The ‘Wow’ Factor

While most black-tie event themes entail neutral palettes and elegant serving ware, we love a ‘wow’ factor. In fact, we encourage it! Little details that will have guests talking, snapping pics, and admiring the thought that went into the design. It can be as simple as quirky glassware, like our always popular Cybil Wine Glasses or Champagne Flutes. Or luxurious velvet linens, in a deep Magnolia or eye-catching Merlot – they won’t be able to keep their hands off it! Another luxe addition are stylish centerpieces like our Davis Glass Cylinders, paired with greenery and candles. Or our contemporary Acrylic Rectangle Container.

When it comes to event decor, table linens are a stylish way to dress up your event. Although simple, they are effective thanks to the wide variety of colors and materials, which contribute to the overall event design. Currently, we’ve been loving textured linens, from chic runners to velvet napkins. Get ideas on how to elevate your event tables when you feature a set of our on-trend textured linens!

Texture Table Runners

If you are featuring tables with an attractive top, then you won’t want to cover it up! Gauze runners are a stylish way to feature some contrasting texture, while still showing off the existing tabletop. Perfect for our Farm Tables! Our Sahara Runners pair beautifully with the wood finish, and are available in three stunning colors. Ivory and Natural are ideal for a modern minimal tablescape. Meanwhile, Rose will lend a fun pop of color! Our Chiffon Runners, available in Rose, Dove Grey or White lend to a more romantic feel. Want a more glam accent? Take a look at our Sequin Table Runners!

Sophisticated Linens

Dreaming of natural but sophisticated event tables? You can’t beat our Kennedy Linens! These linen-style tablecloths and napkins are lightweight, soft, with an organic texture. They are perfect for warmer months of the year as they are slightly sheer, lending a laid-back look. Not to mention they are available in a range of neutral and dusty colors, fitting for a modern event table! Some of our current favorites include Cactus, Fawn and Topaz.

Luxe Linens

The latest and greatest fad in event linen rentals is velvet! Velvet linens create a rich, yet seasonless texture for your tables. And they are available in a huge array of gorgeous colors, making them fitting for a variety of event styles. A few of our current favorites include Fern, London Fog, and Rose. For an especially sophisticated look, check out our etched velvet linens featuring metallic accents – a fun option for cocktail tables. Or your cake table! If you want to switch things up a little, consider topping velvet table linens with satin napkins! A buttery texture with a soft sheen, they will make for an extra romantic tablescape.

Or opt for the more period appropriate Everly, with a shapely back. For a complete look, don’t forget extra seating, like our Bamboo Arm Chairs or fun Turkish Rug Ottoman. Topped off with any of our classic Vintage Rugs!

Elegant Barware

A cocktail hour requires drinks, served up in regal glassware. It’s always fun to receive a refreshing cocktail served up in an elegant vintage-inspired glass.

Fine Servingware

Of course for dinner you’ll need equally impressive serving ware! We offer a wide selection of aristocracy approved china and flatware. A popular choice is our mismatched Heirloom China, which looks stunning when stacked. Or, go for a more high end vibe when you feature our gold embellished china, such as Hamlet or Ophelia.

Boxwood Wall for Photo Backdrop

One of our most versatile rentals are our beautiful boxwood walls. First and foremost, they make for a stunning photo backdrop. They can easily be customized with decor, whether it be bright balloons or signage. In either scenario, your guests will love the photo op. If you prefer a more interactive element, consider serving up some cold drinks via a beverage shelf. It is a unique and fun way to serve up some age-appropriate mocktails. For another interactive element, take a look at our new Donut Wall.

Red Carpet Entrance

What is a Quinceañera without a grand entrance? At Southern, we love to roll out the red carpet. In fact, we love it so much that we supply carpets in a variety of colors. Make a memorable entrance when you rent one of our carpets, whether you go with a classic white or black, or a modern pink.

Staging & Dance Floor

If your Quince will include music, then you’ll definitely need staging. It is the perfect way to make a live band, or another form of entertainment, front and center. In the event that you do have music, be sure to check out our classic black and white dance floor. This photogenic flooring is as stylish as it is perfect for busting some moves on.

Cake Stands

Last, but far from least, we can’t forget the importance of an impressive dessert bar. Specifically, a cake stand for your cake. Our Windsor Gold Cake Stand exudes modern luxury, and is beautiful in a way that won’t take away from the cake. If you really want to take your event to the next level, be sure to consider our modern glass candy jars. They’re perfect for creating a one-of-kind (not to mention delicious) dessert table!
