A memorable event calls for attention to detail! One of our favorite ways to elevate any celebration is with an elegant place setting. From casual backyard gatherings to elegant dinner parties, the right plates can enhance the aesthetic of your event. This said, buying a large number of plates can be expensive! Whereas paper plates are dull and wasteful. That’s where Southern Events comes in! With a large catalog of party plates for rent, we offer an on-trend option for every celebration.

Modern Metallics

Metallics continue to reign supreme in event decor. When it comes to party plates, metal accents are an easy way to turn a plain table setting into a glam spread. We stock a number of chargers with metallics to elevate your table. From a modern Copper Glass Charger to a Silver Round Lacquer Charger. For a more dark and moody vibe, check out our Black Round Lacquer Chargers. Or create a chic place setting with the Silver Beaded Edge Belmont Chargers. Any of these plates is a stunning base for colorful or classic white china!

Chic Party Prints

If you’re looking to infuse your personality and style into your event, printed plates are a beautiful choice. Our inventory includes styles to suit various themes and moods. Whether you’re hosting a whimsical garden party or a bright al fresco dinner party. Feature a metallic accent with the Blair Geometeric or Vera Floral China. Or, add a pop of color with the elegant Laguna or Coronado China. Of course, there is no going wrong with our Carrera Marble Dinner Plates. They look gorgeous on top of a vibrant charger or paired with a colorful napkin!

Down-to-Earthenware

If you desire a more rustic and organic aesthetic, earthenware plates are ideal. Their soft tones, textured surfaces, and imperfect edges exude warmth and charm. Our selection of beautifully crafted earthenware plates is perfect if you are in need of a dinnerware rental. Easily create a modern rustic wedding table with the color Alabaster. Or a bold table for a corporate gala with Onyx. Meanwhile, Stone is a classic and pairs perfectly with soft pastel shades. Such as pink, baby blue, and lavender. For added warmth, we recommend adding a set of velvet napkins.

Textures that Elevate

Placed beneath the main dinner plates, chargers add depth to a table setting. However, you can easily add even more dimension by featuring a textured charger. There is our Rattan White Wash Charger, perfect for a bright and breezy brunch or afternoon tea. As well as a Scalloped Wood Charger, which lends a luxe boho vibe. Or, skip the charger and opt for a crisp set of Glass Mosaic China. A clean and modern look fitting for a gala or fundraiser! Especially when paired with classic white napkins.

Our party plates for rent are a simple way to elevate your event table! Contact our team for help creating a unique place setting, or if you need more ideas. Looking for other ways to create a more luxe look? Take a peek at our napkins, available in a range of brilliant colors.

Take it Easy

When it comes to hosting a casual get-together, creating a stylish and vibrant space is key.

You can set the mood with bistro tables with Hot Pink Velvet Linens. In addition, add some chic Arylic Square Back Barstools for extra seating. Where guests can enjoy colorful cocktails, served in classic Gatsby Coupe Glasses. Alternatively, you can use our Gold Bar Cart as a self-serve drink station. With big-batch cocktails in the Hampton Beverage Dispenser. And if you plan to offer some light bites, our Coronado China will lend a fun hint of blue to party.

Chic in Pink

For a smaller gathering, such as a bridal shower or an adult birthday celebration, you’ll want a muted look. We can help you create a chic pink setup that with our Barbie-inspired event rentals. Starting with a tablescape with a Satin Blush Matte Runner and hot pink roses. Next, feature White Coupe Dinner Plates contrasted by Rose Etched Velvet Napkins and Brushed Copper Flatware. To serve up a ròse, our Cybil Champagne or Wine Glasses will lend a fun retro touch. Complete the look with a pop of blue from our bold Farrah Teal Velvet Chairs. For additional seating, there is our cozy Pearce Lounge. Perfect for additional seating and post-dinner mingling.

Child’s Play

Planning a children’s birthday party? Go big and bold with a Barbiecore theme! Our rentals will transport the little ones into a whimsical Barbie wonderland.

Moody Metallic Tables

So you’re hosting a seated dinner? Creating a moody modern New Year’s table is a breeze! Black is the color of choice for this celebration, but we like to add luxe touches where we can! The easiest way is serving ware featuring metallic accents – plates, glassware, flatware. Start with a set of our elegant tablecloths, in a solid black or with a subtle pattern, like Black Nova. If you prefer a brighter but equally elegant linen, Gold Furrow is a stunner. Top it off with a stack of china. Such as a Gold, Silver, or Black Rim Glass Charger and any of our Earthen Dinner Plates. Choose serving ware that complements existing metallics, whether it be our Gold Austin Flatware, Brooklyn Flatware, or Brushed Copper Flatware. For a spunky touch, include some fun modern glassware – Cybil or blue-hued Meridian Tumblers.

Cozy Countdown Lounge

A lounge (or two) are a must-have for New Year’s Eve. It will be a long night and to keep guests cozy you need a space where they can sit, sip, and mingle to their heart’s content! Our favorite modern moody setup starts with Regent Black Velvet Sofa and a set of Acrylic Ghost Arm Chairs. Pair it with our Capriano Marble and Copper Accent Tables, or a similar set. Another alternative is our Modular Pearce Lounge, which can be arranged as desired to fit your event space. Be sure to surround it with some layered rugs for an extra cozy vibe! For larger parties, we recommend adding in a sprinkling of bistro tables and barstools near the bar area.

Perfect Bar for Toasts

Speaking of bars, you will want one – whether you are serving cocktails or mocktails! Our Black Franklin Bar is a classic staple which you can accessorize with our Avenue Bar Back Shelving. Here you can stock bottles or display fanciful glassware. For smaller gatherings, grab our Gold Bar Cart for storage or a beverage service. When it comes to choosing glassware, you’ll want to offer an array of choices. Start with Gatsby Champagne Coupes for toasting. And Upton Glassware for bourbon or mocktails! If you’d like to wow guests with a champagne tower, our White 6-Tier Serving Tower is a must-have!

Soft & Moody Event Lighting

Candlelight sets the perfect mood for midnight festivities. Create intimate centerpieces using our Davis Glass Cylinders filled with candles and surrounded by a soft runner or greenery. Or feature votives in our Acrylic Rectangle Container. To warm up lounge areas, strategically scatter Oversized Lanterns. We have a variety of styles to choose from to complement different themes! Another fun option is to cozy up around our Hammered Rectangle Fire Pit! Just be sure to supply some plush pillows and afghans or blankets.

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. Cocktail hour is for moving around as your guests meet new people and connect with each other. With this in mind, barstools and cocktail tables are ideal when creating a setup fit for mingling! Take a look at our unique cocktail tables and bar stools that will complement your reception theme or venue.

Rustic Chic

Do you love farmhouse-inspired style? Our Farm Bistro Tables are a classic choice, available in two beautiful colors: White Wash and Fruitwood. If you prefer a more subdued rustic setup, you can top any of our classic bistro tables with luxe linens that will suit a woodsy setting. Forest Poly or Kennedy Natural will complement any rustic venue, as well as most urban backdrops. For a complete look, be sure to grab our Crossback Barstools. 

Modern Romantic

Bright colors and chic rentals are a must-have for a modern romantic celebration! Vibrant linen-dressed cocktail tables are an easy way to feature some color at the reception. And if you’re into the clean lines of mid-century modern, our Mid-Century Barstools in Black or White will fit perfectly into your theme. Prefer a more luxe look? Our Charleston Bistro Table is an easy choice. It looks stunning with a set of popular Gold Chiavari Barstools.

Modern Minimal

Going for a modern or minimal theme? Our Loren Gold Bistro Table and Acrylic Ghost Barstools are a darling pair, especially when set atop one of our vintage rugs. For a softer look, you might place a runner across the table, for that modern romantic look. Try a neutral color like Havana Ecru or Bloom Chiffon! To create an equally impressive but more traditional setup, opt for a simple bistro table outfitted in bold linens. Any color will look stunning with a pair of sleek Acrylic Casper Square Back Barstools – or any of our acrylic chairs for that matter.

Cocktail Hour Essentials

A successful cocktail party requires some specific furnishings! Starting with a beautiful bar, where mixologists can whip up impressive beverages. To assist them in a stunning presentation, be sure to stock the bar with a selection of gorgeous, on-theme glassware. And maybe a display shelf or two! For a fun interactive element, you can’t go wrong with our Boxwood Walls, complete with a champagne shelf and lots of bubbly.

Who doesn’t love a fabulous brunch?! Maybe that is why more than ever, people are centering their celebrations around this popular mealtime. From baby showers to bridal showers and weddings, brunch is a memorable way to mark a milestone. As well as a good excuse to break out the bubbles! The garden at CJ’s Off the Square has all the inspiration needed for hosting a sweet southern brunch party, featuring vintage-inspired rentals and classic serving ware pieces.

Set the Scene

If you’ve ever enjoyed brunch then you know that the goal is to create a setting that is sophisticated yet casual. A space where people feel special, enjoying a decadent meal. With this in mind, your tablescape is key. We love starting off with tables dressed in bright linens, such as Blush Shimmer. For a fun extra layer, top it off with a textured runner or overlay. For seating, our Acrylic Carrigan Side Chair will bring a modern contemporary touch – as will any of our acrylic seating options.

For a look that is equally airy but a touch more rustic, you could also feature our Grayson Farm Table or White Wash Round Farm Table. Either of these pieces will look stunning standalone or can be decorated with a soft runner, like Bloom Chiffon or Champagne Lace. As with any brunch, fresh floral centerpieces are required! Place bright or neutral-colored blooms in our elegant Square Glass Vases. If you’re hosting a large party, it doesn’t hurt to throw a few bistro tables into the mix!

Then Set the Table!

Of course, the real star of a southern brunch party is the food! For which you’ll need to create an impressive tablescape. One of our favorite ways to create a memorable table is by featuring serving ware with textures. Start with our White Wash Rattan Charger, stacked with our dainty Darcy China and Darcy Bone China Charger. These pieces are the perfect combination of old and new! Pair it with our Abby Flatware, or Austin Flateware if you prefer gold.

To complete the place setting you’ll also need glassware, for a variety of popular brunch-themed beverages. A water goblet is always essential, and our Hob Nob Goblet is a stunner. It also pairs beautifully with our Heirloom Tea Cups and Saucers, for a quaint vintage touch for serving hot coffee or tea. For an especially well-thought-out table, you might also feature a Silver Coffee/Tea Server. Along with a matching Carson Silver Cream and Sugar Set, it will be a fun classically southern detail.

Create a Chic Lounge

It’s not brunch without mimosas! Creating cozy spaces to sit and sip will ensure that they feel comfortable enough to linger and mingle. A lounge will also be a comfortable and photo-ready spot for opening gifts. Our Everly Sofa and Chair are a beautiful pair – not to mention incredibly comfy! If you need extra seating, add in our Winstead Grey Tufted Bench. You’ll also want a place where people can set their drinks, like our Cheval Gold Mirror Side Table. Or our larger Blanche Coffee Table.

Speaking of drinks, another round of glassware is a must. Serve up mimosas in our Pure Champagne Flutes – placing glasses on our Boxwood Wall in Champagne Shelves, or displayed on the White Barback Shelf for stunning presentation. Provide a variety of fresh fruit juices in carafes, along with seasonal fruits and cheese on silver serving platters. Sparkling water is also a great option to have on hand for a mom-to-be, or kiddos in tow!
