Must-Have: Outdoor Party Rentals for Cooler Seasons

On Trend, Southern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration

outdoor party rentals in the winter

The autumn and winter seasons in Middle Tennessee are favorites of ours! As the weather becomes cooler in the South, intimate, outdoor gatherings to celebrate the season are a must. Collect inspiration for your outdoor fall events in Nashville, Tennessee with our functional and stylish outdoor party rentals.

Coffee & Hot Cider Urns

Here’s to chilly outdoor gatherings made even cozier with the perfect warm brew in hand! We have everything you need to serve coffee, hot cider, or another seasonal beverage, plus keep it hot for the entire evening. Make-your-own hot chocolate stations are always a hit! Take a look at our modern 100-Cup Coffee Percolator and Hammered Coffee Urns, and don’t forget to grab some stylish coffee mugs, available in both glass and china.

Rectangular Fire Pits

A fire pit can be used to create a social area, as well as a space for guests to warm up. Our Rectangular Fire Pit is also the perfect place to toast some s’mores, or create an interactive s’mores bar! Be sure to grab our Regent Black Velvet Sofa, our Chocolate Poufs, or other outdoor seating of your choice, to create a comfy seating area.

Tents

Unpredictable weather is just a part of the season! Rain can pop up unexpectedly, making it all the more important that you have a tent on hand and in place. Our current tent packages were created with your needs in mind, and include enough furniture for any size party.

Portable Heaters

Planning to host a late-night event? Temperatures will drop, and we want you to be fully prepared. Our Blowing-Style Heater is a must-have, whether or not you set it up from the get-go. It will help your guests stay warm and prevent the party from ending early!

Lounge Furniture

Our Sutton Lounge Package in the Mediterranean shade is super cozy, in addition to being a lovely pop of color for an autumnal event. We love this piece for a casual social hour, or for a backyard movie night. If you plan on serving food or drinks, be sure to rent the matching ottomans as well.

Alternatively, velvet lounges like the Henley Sofa bring a touch of warmth and luxury to any outdoor cold-weather event, creating an inviting atmosphere for guests to settle in and relax. The soft fabric not only looks elegant but also adds a layer of comfort that’s perfect for chilly evenings. Add a rug, side tables, throw pillows, and a few comfy blankets!

Southern Love: Fall Garden Weddings At CJ’s Off the Square

Nashville Venues, On Trend, Southern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration

moody rustic fall garden wedding table

With beautiful weather and stunning foliage, there’s no better time to host an outdoor wedding at CJ’s Off the Square. This elegant wedding venue in Franklin, Tennesse is a timeless space, where our team has had the privilege of curating some truly breathtaking fall garden weddings. Keep reading to explore four distinct wedding themes that capture the essence of Southern love in Autumn.

Moody Fall Hues

Picture a ceremony by the gazebo, where the warm fall sun filters through the trees, casting a golden glow on our dark Fruitwood Folding Chairs. For your reception, embrace the moody elegance of the season with rustic reception tables paired with elegant Cross-Back Chairs. Create a simple yet bold tablescape with an Ivory Lace Table Runner, contrasted by Onyx Earthen China. In addition to our Vera Floral China and Brushed Copper Flatware, plus a pop of color from Burgundy Poly Napkins! Now that your tables are complete, don’t forget to create a matching moody lounge area with the Black Regent Velvet sofa and Adeline Dining Chairs.

Timeless Neutrals

If your goal is a timeless fall wedding, then you can’t go wrong with neutrals. Due to colors like white, ivory, and brown, that complement the seasonal foliage. This fall wedding featured a range of warm neutral shades, that lent a timeless rustic look. To recreate this design, dress rectangle and round tables in Ivory Poly Linens and/or a Natural Sahara Table Runner. Avoid an overly minimalist look when you opt for detailed place settings! We recommend stacking a Glass Charger with Gold Rim and our Athena China, paired with Fresno Matte Gold Flatware. In order to add a sense of coziness, add on a lounge area starring our Ellison Collection with Hammered Gold Coffee Tables, and a vintage rug.

Cozy Orange Tones

Warmth and intimacy define this reception theme! Firstly, mismatched tables provide a cozy reception setting, with Fruitwood Farm Tables topped with Natural Sahara Table Runners and round tables in Ivory Poly Tablecloths. Contrasting the warm tones, Glass Chargers with Black Rims peek out beneath Onyx Earthen Dessert Plates. While Brushed Copper Flatware and shiny Ivory Satin Napkins tie the look together! Outdoors, create a cozy lounge area with the Jacqueline Velvet Sofa and Adeline Dining Chairs, accented by Capri Metal Side Tables. Spruced up with soft pillows and throws, it’s the perfect spot for guests to relax, mingle, and soak in the crisp fall air.

Green & Gold

Rich green and sparkling gold are a stunning choice for fall garden weddings. A striking color combo that nods to the upcoming winter! Dress your event tables in bold Magnolia Velvet Linens paired with wood Harlin Dining Chairs for a classically elegant look. Given you want a luxurious look, top them with place settings starring gold-accented serving ware. Such as our Glass Chargers with Gold Rim, Hamlet China, and Austin Flatware. For a little extra fall flair, complete the table with Golden Velvet Napkins. If you want a matching lounge area, pair our Bennett Leather Sofa and Chocolate Poufs with the Avalon Rectangle Coffee Table.

On Trend: Backyard Alfresco Dining

On Trend, Southern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration

Supporting image

When the weather is nice, why not enjoy dinner with your family and friends outside? Come spring and summer in Tennessee, there is nothing better than dining in the fresh air, with a cold cocktail in hand. Get inspired for backyard alfresco dining with our stylish in-stock serving ware.

Vibrant Cherry Red & Teal

To complement the colors of the season, we love a vibrant tablescape. This design features cherry red and teal, for a look that is classically southern. Our warm fruitwood farm table acts as a base for White Square China, Navy Blue Velvet napkins, and Pure Glassware. A cool-toned, Dove Grey runner lends another hint of blue to the table. Meanwhile, our Brushed Copper Flatware and Audrey Gold Rim Glassware bring a touch of glam via metallics.

Natural Lime & Lemon

Sometimes less is more! For this natural table design, fresh citrus and fruit was the star of the show. Atop Heritage Ivory Linens, we placed our simple Artisan China and Wood Round Charger, complemented by Brushed Copper Flatware. The centerpieces consisted of fresh greenery and citrus, which were perfect for the lush lawn setting. To tie some greenery into the tablescape, we opted for our favorite fern velvet napkins. This design is ideal for a bright mid-morning brunch or afternoon cocktail hour!

Rustic Farm-to-Table

When you want a casual yet put-together look, opt for a farm-to-table design. This simple tablescape features our Artisan China, Sophia Flatware, and Madison Glassware. Despite the minimal serving ware and linens, what truly makes this layout is the table and chairs. Take our Cross-back chairs, which are plain yet oh so elegant. For a pop of color, you might consider brightly-colored napkins or a table runner. Perhaps in our Cornsilk Poly or Peaches n’ Cream Poly.

Bold Black & Gold

Black and gold are a classic pairing and surefire way to make a statement. This luxe and bold backyard alfresco dining table showcase a mix of moody hues, including black, gold, and a variety of red shades. For the serving ware, we opted for our Austin Flatware, Medallion Gold Glass Charger, and Madison Glassware. What amplifies this tablescape is the balance from glam elements, such as the gold and acrylic details. Take for example our always popular Acrylic Ghost Chairs! If you prefer an equally colorful but bright style, take a look at this colorful backyard party.

Classic Cookout

There is something so charming about gingham, and this backyard cookout-inspired table just does it for us. It was created using our Onyx China and silver Sophia Flatware. The true black plates are an easy way to bring the fun gingham tablecloth back down to earth. Yet super cute coke bottle centerpieces and our contemporary Davis Glassware keep the overall vibe light. For a look that is slightly more toned down, switch out this tablecloth for a solid or neutral color.

A charger plate never holds a single bite of food. And yet it might be the most important thing on the table. 🍽️

One charger choice can shift the entire tone of a tablescape before a guest ever sits down. We broke down exactly why — link in bio.

The tables that look simple usually aren't. ✨
Earthen Alabaster China and Santorini Stripe Napkins — the kind of details guests notice once they sit down.

A lounge area isn't just extra seating. It's where the party actually lives. ☀️

Guests need somewhere to land between the dance floor and the dinner table. A well-placed lounge gives them that — and keeps the energy moving instead of stalling. Worth thinking about before the floor plan is finalized.

Cocktail hour gets overlooked in the planning process more than it should. 🥂

The right mix of cocktail tables and barstools shapes how guests move, where they land, and how the whole space feels before dinner even starts. We broke down exactly how to get it right — link in bio.

Somerset Blue showing out at @thecordelle. 💙

Blue and white printed linens in an urban setting — bright, elegant, and exactly the kind of table that makes a downtown venue feel like it was always meant for this. Pattern can carry a room when it's the right one.
