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.

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.

Pastels are a growing trend in event design this year. If you watched the Oscars, you know it (we are still swooning over Maya Rudolph’s glorious pink gown – among other amazing looks). Pastels were everywhere. Bonus: This trend incorporates itself beautifully in weddings and events. You can make this color scheme work with whichever various themes you’re going for. Classic? Of course. How about “garden charm”, or Southern, or “rustic glam”… yep, you can do that, too! Whimsical, romantic, and even glamorous, pastels will lend an enchanted feel to pretty much any event or wedding.

Often, when people think of pastel color schemes, they think “sweet, traditional, and girly.” That’s definitely not the case anymore! This pastel color scheme can most definitely be luxe and modern. Imagine monochromatic shades of pastel blue – that look is both sleek, modern, and incredibly fresh.

When creating a fresh look with these colors, you can bring in pastel linens, dishes, furniture, or florals. You could also weave pastel colors through your invitations, food (think French macaroons), or wedding party gowns and accessories. If you’re wanting to create a look with pastels, Southern Events Party Rental Company has everything you need – from linens to dishes to coffee tables!

Love pastels and want help incorporating this fresh palette into your next event? Send us a message at info@southerneventsonline.com.

2019’s Pantone Color of the Year is Living Coral, and we have all the heart-eyes for this color! There are tons of ways to go about incorporating Living Coral: sweet, feminine, classy, Southern…the ideas go on and on. Here, we are in love with how the spunky color combination of teal and coral can evoke both glam as well as fun vibes. If you’re looking to incorporate 2019’s Pantone Color of the Year – Living Coral – we think this is a fabulous way to do it. We adore how the color pops up in a myriad of ways at this Spring Tasting Event at CJs off the Square (even down to the adorable cocktail).

This glam and fun theme incorporates gold, mismatched and detailed dinnerware, and our swoon-worthy Farrah Teal Velvet Chair. The teal color woven through the theme takes the coral to a new level. The Tessa Tufted Beige Loveseat just had to be part of this look, with the glam and fun lines on the piece calling out to be included in this Coral shin-dig.

Poppies and other coral floral designs–along with coral linens–accented the event, assisting the teal and coral theme in adding to the glam and fun vibes.

Graduation party season is upon us! It’s sentimental, nostalgic, and cheerful… all at once. As you get ready to plan a graduation party for your senior, there’s a lot to consider. Will it be outside? How many people will you invite? What should you serve? Where will the guests sit? Southern Events has plenty of in-stock graduation party rentals to allow you to create a memorable and fun event for your grad.

Set the Scene

First, let’s set the scene. If your graduation party is going to be outside, consider one of our Tent Pop-Up Packages. You can coordinate the linens that come with your package to match school colors for added festiveness! The Sutton Collection or Barnwood Furniture and our Hammered Rectangle Fire Pit will be the perfect additions for added warmth and comfort. AstroTurf is great for graduation parties, and you could use our Boxwood Wall to create spaces or use as a backdrop!

Food and Such

At your graduation party, chances are – you’ll have some sort of food and drink (those seniors sure get cranky when they aren’t fed!), so you’ll want to think about how you’ll serve the food. Our Brushed Copper Flatware looks amazing with the Hob Nob Glassware. Both are fun and trendy and bring both modern and class to an event. Melamine Platters are perfect for your outdoor celebrations. Oh! And let’s definitely not forget the cake (that would result in extra cranky seniors), and we love serving cake on our Windsor Gold Cake Stands.

Graduation parties should create and instill memories and be a moment of celebration for all you and your grad have done over the past 18 years. Pat both of yourselves on the back. You did it!

Catering large and small-scale events alike requires the proper equipment and proper planning. Maybe you’re catering a wedding, high school graduation, or a baby shower. You could be catering for a sit-down meal or a buffet. The purpose of the combined tasks of catering is to allow the host to relax and the guests to have a memorable time. Southern Events has plenty of catering equipment available for rent to help these tasks run smoothly for your Nashville, Franklin or Middle Tennessee event. From catering outdoor events to food prep the moment before the event begins, we have all the items needed.

Outside Events

If you’re looking for catering equipment for an outside event, there are so many things to consider. Inclement weather – will it rain, be super hot, super sunny? Bugs – how can you protect the food you’ve worked so hard to create from getting ruined by flies and the like? Location – will it be in the middle of a field? How will you get the food and equipment to the location? Southern Events has rentals to solve all of these problems. Pop-Up Tents to protect from sun and rain, Plate Covers to protect the food, Trash Cans for waste, Banquet Tables with Risers for prep and Coolers to keep food.

Food Safety and Prep

When catering, you want the food to taste just as good when the guests eat it as it did the second it was finished cooking or baking.  You also want to keep in mind food-safety concerns. How long can your meal sit out at room temperature? We have rentals such as Chafing Dishes, Tray Stands, Hot Boxes and Banquet Tables with Risers to help you pull all of this off! When it comes to catering, much of the time you’re prepping food up until the very end! We have rentals for the prep process as well.

Farmhouse-inspired weddings and events are very of-the-moment, and for good reason! This trend is classic, fresh, and uber-relaxed. Perfect for a gathering of friends and family that is down to earth (literally) while being effortlessly stylish.

We partnered with the Gifford Collective at Meadow Hill Farms, where we used some of our favorite neutral rentals to bring this Southern Farmhouse look to life. The tablescape features our Sophia Flatware, Artisan Dinner Plates and Artisan Dessert Plates, Madison Glasses, and Havana Ecru Napkins.  Fresh bread wrapped in butcher paper serves as place cards (love!), while cream, greenery & silver accents atop a Farm Table, paired with our Cross-Back Chairs, created an elegant and approachable Southern Farmhouse table.  The ivory and handpainted wedding cake sits on our Fruitwood Round Cake Plateau as a tempting finish to the delicious meal one can imagine enjoying here.

The Southern Farmhouse style has been growing in popularity and is still going strong as a trend for 2019! We are excited to help create this beautiful scene for couples this upcoming year. Thank you Cassidy Carson Photography, for the beautiful images.

Boutique festivals, craft fairs, food shows, wine walks… beautiful weather calls for beautiful outdoor events. When creating spaces for these fun and creative events, one thing to keep in mind is the need for an inviting and warm atmosphere. This can be created easily with rentals from Southern Events. From pop-up tents to furniture, we have just what you need to put on a festival, or artisan event.

When it comes to the big picture planning, you’ll need to create a temporary space for attendees to gather and artisans to show their wares. We have multiple rentals to that effect, such as our comprehensive Pop Up Packages, which include chairs, tables, easels, and linens to ensure your event is professional and cohesive.

At your boutique festival or artisan event, do you plan to feature local entertainment? If so, a Dance Floor to allow a designated space for guests to cut a rug is a great idea! We have plenty of options to choose from, from checkered to wooden to black.

In order to ensure attendees at your craft for or boutique festival are safe and to allow for good traffic flow, Portable Fencing is a must! Place fencing where lines should form, to help with parking, to fence off segmented areas, etc.

Comfortable gathering spaces ensure guests are able to chat, enjoy the delicious food available, and rest from all of the amazing shopping and activities available at your event. Southern Events has rentals to help you create the exact vibe you are wanting for your event. We love the Sutton Collection for comfortable outdoor lounging, as well as the Barnwood Furniture from our Farm Collection.

For added coziness and warmth for your craft fair or artisan festival, we recommend adding rugs in your gathering spaces. Southern Events has a plethora of rugs to choose from. Looking for a boho vibe? Our Gray and Blush Rug will fit right in. For a modern, more masculine feel, our Cowhide Rug is perfect.

As the weather cools and guests get ready to lounge and enjoy the evening, a fire pit or a heater will make sure your boutique festival attendees stay warm and cozy. We recommend the Hammered Fire Pit or Umbrella- Style Heater.
