Hosting a dinner party should be joyful, not stressful. But when you’re the one planning the evening, setting the table can feel like a balancing act between style and simplicity. That’s where tablescape rentals come in. Whether you’re planning a milestone birthday, holiday gathering, or intimate dinner with friends, Southern Events in Nashville offers stylish tabletop rentals that not only elevate your table setting but make cleanup a breeze. From elegant serveware to freshly pressed linens, our rentals help you create a picture-perfect spread without the post-party mess.

Elegant Beverage & Coffee Service

Beverage service is often the first impression your guests have of your event. Whether you’re pouring cocktails, mocktails, sweet tea, or iced water, the vessel matters. We offer beautiful silver beverage pitchers and glass carafes that make even water feel like a special treat. These elegant, uniform pieces streamline self-service and elevate the look of your drink station. When dessert rolls around, add our silver coffee or tea server sets—complete with matching cut glass creamers and sugar bowls—to keep your beverage service cohesive and charming.

Pro Tip: Set up a self-serve coffee bar using our silver trays and tiered stands for an inviting, hotel-lounge-inspired touch.

Make a Statement with Tiered Stands

Tiered stands are one of our favorite multitaskers. Use them for appetizers, desserts, or even miniature place cards and favors. Here are a few standout options:

• Willow Tiered Stand: Rustic, organic, and perfect for charcuterie or brunch.
• Hamilton 3-Tier Silver Serving Stand: Formal and classic, ideal for weddings or elegant soirées.
• White Square 3-Tier Serving Stand: Clean and versatile, fitting for baby showers, brunches, or garden parties.

These stands not only make serving easier. They add vertical interest to your table setting rentals, helping guide the guest experience and encouraging conversation.

Family-Style Hosting Made Effortless

Family-style meals create a sense of warmth and community. However, to pull one off successfully, it requires the right pieces. Our collection of melamine serving platters—deep dish, oval, rectangular, and square—is perfect for main dishes, sides, and salads. These coordinated serving pieces eliminate the need to cobble together a mismatched assortment of bowls and trays.

Hosting Tip: Use our bread baskets (available in Brown Oval Rattan, Gold Oval, or Silver Round)to serve warm rolls or freshly-baked loaves with style. Pair them with flavored butters or olive oil in small ramekins for added charm.

Linens That Save Time & Look Good Doing It

Few things say “finished” like a well-dressed table. Renting linens means you don’t have to worry about last-minute ironing, post-party washing, or storing tablecloths you’ll only use once or twice a year. With a wide selection of styles, colors, and materials, our linen rentals help you create a cohesive tablescape that aligns with your event theme. And when it comes to cloth napkins, they’re not just a style upgrade over disposables. They’re more absorbent, better for the environment, and much more elegant to display on your tabletop.

Set the Mood with Servingware

From first course to final toast, your servingware ties your whole event together. At Southern Events, our inventory includes:

• China in various patterns and tones for every event style.
• Chargers that add depth, polish, and drama to place settings.
• Flatware options, from classic silver to modern matte gold.
• Glassware, including wine glasses, goblets, and highballs.

You can create a completely customized place setting that feels luxurious without feeling excessive. All without the need to buy (or clean!) a dozen extra place settings.

Wedding Table Linens

Setting the stage for your wedding begins with the perfect linens. The right fabric, color, and length can transform your table and set the tone for the entire event. We offer a diverse range of linens, including polyester, satin, and velvet. Polyester is durable and versatile, making it suitable for any occasion. Satin adds a touch of elegance with its smooth, glossy finish. Meanwhile, velvet offers a luxurious and rich feel, perfect for a sophisticated look.

In addition to full tablecloths, consider using table runners for an added layer of style. Coastal-inspired linens, romantic silks, and other specialty fabrics can enhance your chosen theme. When it comes to lengths, a modern aesthetic can be achieved with linens that cut off right at the floor, providing a clean edge. Alternatively, for a dreamy, elegant look, you might prefer runners or tablecloths that gracefully fall onto the floor.

China & Chargers

The china and chargers you choose will be the stars of your table. These items take up the most space and are key indicators of your event’s style or theme. At Southern Events, we offer a stunning selection to suit any vision. Our patterned china features whimsical florals and vibrant color waves, perfect for adding a touch of personality and charm to your table setting. For those seeking a more classic look, we offer timeless neutrals such as crisp white and matte black.

Looking for a simple way to create a luxe layered look? Feature a contrasting charger. Consider options like white-washed rattan for a rustic touch or shimmering gold for a luxurious feel. Once you’ve chosen your china and charger, complete the stack with coordinating bread, salad, or dessert plates to add depth and dimension to your table.

Glassware Rentals

Choosing the right glassware depends largely on your beverage service or menu. While a water goblet is essential, additional glassware can enhance the aesthetic and functionality of your table. A water goblet is versatile and can be used for any drink, from water to lemonade.

For special moments such as toasts and wine service, champagne flutes and wine glasses are perfect additions. If you plan to offer signature beverages like beers or cocktails, consider specialty glassware. While not necessary, having multiple glassware offerings can add a luxurious aesthetic to your event table. Glassware can also be used to add a splash of color or an eclectic edge to your design, making your table truly unique.

Wedding Flatware

Unless your menu is entirely finger foods, you’ll need flatware. The type and quantity will depend on your service style and menu. Start with the basics: knives and forks, for both bread and steak. These are essential whether you are planning a buffet or catered dinner. For a multiple-course meal, you will also need salad forks, in addition to a dessert fork or spoon for your dessert service. If you’re offering coffee service, consider adding a coffee cup, saucer, and an additional spoon.

We offer a variety of flatware styles, from vintage to modern, in various on-trend metallics and sheens. While small, flatware can make a significant visual impact on your tablescape, contributing to the overall aesthetic and theme of your event.
