Fall is drifting in, and as the seasons begin to change, so do wedding trends. Bold and vibrant colors can be found everywhere in nature–from the burgundy mums sitting on your doorstep, to the bright orange pumpkins waiting to be carved into jack-o-lanterns, to the yellow leaves falling to the ground. Who are we to argue with mother nature? The vivid and rich color palette of the great outdoors moves fall wedding trends toward more jewel-toned hues.

So grab that pumpkin spice latte, light a candle, and peruse these gorgeous, in-stock jewel-toned rentals.

Jewel-Toned Furniture

Our Saylor Navy Sofa always makes a striking statement. We’ve used it at many weddings and events, and it begged to be included in this lineup. The piece’s deep and powerful hue of blue brings in warmth and vivacity. Our Tabby Tufted Gray Linen Loveseat and Gold Chiavari Chairs are alluring accent pieces that round out the fall color theme.

Bold Linens

We love playing with linens- layering them, draping them, and allowing them to pop in unexpected places. When it comes to a fall, jewel-toned wedding theme, linens are a trusty side-kick. They accentuate, build up, and reinforce the vibrant color palette. The possibilities are endless. Our Burgundy Poly Linen, Gold Poly Linen, Magnolia Green Velvet Linen, and Raspberry Poly Linen are our top picks for pushing this jewel-toned vision to life.

Gold Accents

Warm, rich, vivacious colors set in gold are the things of fairy tales (and sought-after gifts). Rubies, emeralds, sapphires- they all have several things in common. One of which being they are set in gold. Setting your jewel-toned wedding in gold is simple with our in-stock rentals. Our Austin Flatware, Gold Accent China, and Gold Decor Accessories do just the trick.

Are you catching these fall feels? We’d love to help you create the bold and vivacious wedding you’re dreaming of. Send us a message at info@southerneventsonline.com.

Monochromatic event design takes one color and weaves it throughout the event rentals and decor. We’ve all heard the phrase “less is more” and that’s definitely true here.  If you’re looking to create a lot of drama and make a memorable statement, choosing one color and layering in different textures and materials will go a long way. It’ll be bold no matter what, but the mood varies depending on the color.

This look can be achieved by keeping furniture, linens, lighting, and florals (and pretty much anything and everything in between) in the same color palette. Also, there’s no need to stress about making sure everything matches just right. For monochromatic design, it’s more about pulling together varying hues, tones, and textures in the same color family. We’ve used our in-stock rentals to showcase how to pull together this look.

Sophisticated Black

A black monochromatic design creates a sophisticated feel. Our Black Velvet Sofa paired with our Black and Silver Rug build out the perfect lounge area. For dining, our Carrera Marble Dinner Plate and Black Dupioni Linens join forces to give off an ultra-sophisticated and seamless look. Finally, we used our Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs to compliment the black monochromatic design and carry the sophistication even further. (Our Acrylic Chairs are a nice companion to pretty much any monochromatic event design.)

Glamorous White

An all-white design is a dreamy and glamorous option for weddings and other events. It gives off an ethereal, magical feel. There are so many ways to go about a white monochromatic design. For this look, we pulled together our Santorini Off-White Sofa and Loveseat and Cowhide Rug for a comfortable lounge area. For the dining area, we brought in mismatched Vintage Chairs, Athena China, and Cybil Glassware.

Bold Blue

A blue monochromatic theme is both bold and classy. The Saylor Sofa and Loveseat set the scene for this look. To accent the blue monochromatic theme, we pulled in our Navy Rug and Meridian Blue Tumblers.

We’d love to create a show-stopping look for your wedding or corporate event. If you’re feeling inspired by these designs, send us a message at info@southerneventsonline.com.

Nautical-inspired event design is classic and timeless. Whether you’re talking about clothes, interior design, or party themes – nautical themes are elegant, preppy, and here to stay. There’s just something about the combination of whites, navy, and gold that produces an air of a New England soiree. This event theme is ideal for sweet baby showers, seaside or mainland weddings, and fun corporate events. The possibilities are truly endless when it comes to this fresh nautical color combination. You can go as “theme-y” as you want, or shoot for a more subtle approach. Southern Events Party Rental Company has plenty of nautical-inspired event rentals to have you and your guests feeling as if you’re celebrating oceanside (no matter where you are). Ahoy!

Fresh and crisp whites, such as our Santorini Sofa, paired with sophisticated blue linens (Royal Poly or Midnight Poly, for instance) achieve an elegant and preppy nautical theme – effortlessly and subtly. To really have your event set sail, we recommend bringing in flatware and dinnerware with gold accents. Our Austin Flatware and Kate Polka Dot dishes fit quite nicely here. You can anchor the theme with items like our Navy Rug, aptly named Saylor Sofa or Rory Navy Velvet Chairs for extra seating. The sky really is the limit when it comes to how nautical you want your event to be.

We adore dressing fabulous Nashville area venues in Southern Events rentals, and Long Hollow Gardens is one of our absolute favorites. Long Hollow Gardens is a super unique event venue. It is actually a greenhouse! Couples can achieve that “outdoor wedding” feel with all of the comfort of remaining indoors (think gorgeous summer wedding without all the heat!). Oh, and don’t forget about the exquisite natural light pouring into the venue. On this 35 acre property, you’ll find a vineyard, their Farmhouse Bridal Cottage, and Hearthroom Barn. With enough space for 200 guests, it’s a great venue for weddings and events of all sizes.

Our neutral, natural rentals really shine at Long Hollow Gardens. The Cross-Back Chairs look tailor-made for this venue and are incredibly inviting paired with ivory linens. When outfitting the Greenhouse, we typically stick to neutral color palettes in order to let nature shine. From the Bennett Leather Sofa to the Fruitwood Farm Table, many of our rentals look as if they belong at this one-of-a-kind venue. However, we are not opposed to dreaming up a colorful look with our Saylor Velvet Furniture rentals. We are in love with how this location serves as a backdrop for pretty much any dreamy look a couple could conjure up.

Be sure to visit their website to learn more about hosting your Southern event at this greenhouse venue. Photos by Julie Paisley.

With summer weather in full swing, we’ve been especially inspired by all things outdoors. If you’re in Nashville (or anywhere in the United States), take one step outside around dinner time and you’ll smell it. It’s cookout season. From neighborhood block parties to back-to-school parties (soon!) to corporate get-togethers, most events migrate outdoors to make use of the green grass, fresh blooms, and blue skies. Southern Events recently partner with local Nashville vendors to create a fresh look for an outdoor party style shoot. Join us as we reminisce over the laid-back feel of the event.

Most people love the easy-natured feel of an outdoor cookout party. It just brings people together. Simple and comfortable textures, rustic accessories, and bright colors marry to create a fresh and fun vibe. We used Red and White Check Linens to emphasize the nostalgic feel and bring a fun, picnic theme to the look. The cookout food was set atop our White-Washed Barnwood Barrel Bar. Festive ice-cold drinks were served in our Hungarian Baby Bath.

An important part of any event is having more than just one area for guests to lounge. If you want them to stick around after the food (or make sure they’re comfy while waiting to dig in), we recommend a lounge area. For this outdoor cookout party, we brought our Simplicity Bench, Chocolate Pouf, Stone Round Fire Pit, and plenty of pillows and blankets for texture and to help make the party feel more inviting.

We had so much fun working on this shoot with the talented Locklane Events and Feather and Oak at Cedarmont Farms and adore these images provided by Erin Allender Photography. Here’s to Southern summers!

If you’re planning a back-to-school outdoor party or a fun corporate get-together, we’d love to help make it stylish & Southern. Send us a message at info@southerneventsonline.com.

A well-outfitted bar is the sign of a well-planned event. Part of your event planning list, if you’re including alcohol, will include “Get items for the bar”. Let’s get that item checked off your list. First things first – what’s your theme? Are you going for a rustic or bohemian theme? Or an upscale, Southern look? How about an elegant, sophisticated look?

If you’re going for a rustic or bohemian theme, check out our Specialty Bars:

Tin Lizzie Metal Bar

Bond Bar

White Wash Miller Bar

Miller Bar

Caldwell Bar

If you’re looking for a more Southern belle + upscale theme, you can choose between our Franklin Bar and our Harpeth Bar. The Harpeth Bar comes with curved inserts so that you can customize it. Another great option for bars at events is our Franklin Mini Bar. These are perfect bars for spacing around your event and allowing lines to not get too long, or creating fun, specialty drink stations.

After you’ve chosen your ideal bar, it’s time to stock up on storage space (Avenue Bar Back Shelf – available in gold or silver), fun decorations and backdrops (Boxwood Wall), and bar essentials like beverage tubs and ice scoops. Oh, and don’t forget the glass carafes for fun drinks like mimosas or sangrias.

Americana decor and style is made up of industrial lines, vintage pieces, and other nods to star-spangled pride. The theme is nostalgic, classic, and versatile. It’s typically a combination of laid-back pieces, farmhouse vibes, history, and patriotism, and is a great feel for a corporate meeting or party on or near July 4th, or a casual summer party. This style is iconic and effortless and is sure to facilitate many memories, conversations, and good times.

From furniture to vintage accent pieces, Southern Events has a multitude of in-stock event rentals for your Americana-style event. When it comes to furniture, our Bennett Sofa and Urban Furniture can help set the scene–creating a laid-back, rustic feel. Our Blue and Red Rug brings warmth and a bit of modern style to the Americana theme. We adore how this rug has patriotic vibes while remaining trendy and stylish. You could also bring in a Cow Hide Rug for layering or to help create cozy spaces.  Is an Americana event complete without a bar for toasting and celebrating? Absolutely not! The Caldwell Bar is equal parts laid-back and vintage. Hob Nob Glassware or Recycled Glassware comes in for great vintage and classic touches, and paired with the Artisan China, creates a relaxed look. You can finish off the look with a few items from our Vintage Props. It just takes the right combination of classic American colors, vintage pieces, and contemporary lines to create an Americana-inspired event that is welcoming and beautiful.

If you’re wanting to create a star-spangled vibe at your next event, we’d love to help you! Email our team to book your personal showroom tour at info@southerneventsonline.com to get started!

Southern Events recently took part in an Open House at City Winery, and we love how our gorgeous rentals shine at this venue. We used a combination of gold, neutral, and blush to create a luxe feel. Add to that beautiful color combination modern materials like our Acrylic Chairs, Midas Gold Bench, and Gold Furrow Linen, and it was definitely swoon-worthy.

We absolutely adore all the possibilities available at City Winery. Whether you’re going full-on “honky-tonk” or wanting a feminine and modern look, you can make it all happen here.

Cocktail hour on your wedding day. It’s a fancy happy hour – with all of your closest family and friends. Along with planning your favorite signature drinks for your guests (and yummy hors d’oeuvres), you’ll also want to create a comfortable space that’s perfect for conversation and mingling. Cocktail hour is for moving around as your guests meet new people and connect with each other. With that in mind, barstools and cocktail tables are ideal for these types of settings.

Southern Events has several unique cocktail tables and bar stools to fit your wedding reception theme or vibe. Going for a modern theme? We love the Loren Gold Bistro Table and Acrylic Barstools. Do you love farmhouse-inspired style? The Farm Bistro Tables and Crossback Barstools look gorgeous together. If you’re into the clean lines of mid-century modern, our Mid-Century Bistro Table & Barstools will fit perfectly into your theme.  How about an industrial look? Our Jackson and Remington Bistro Tables definitely fit the bill. We love how these items can be mixed and matched to create a comfortable and engaging atmosphere.
