There may be mixed feelings about 90s trends swinging into the 21st century, but one thing most can agree on is we are here for the velvet. All the velvet party rentals! Luxurious, warm, comfortable, and sophisticated, this moody fabric is making its way onto catwalks and into event design.

Not only is velvet incredibly elegant, but it’s also versatile. Combine velvet with more rustic elements, such as farm tables and Crossback Chairs for a warm and approachable vibe, or combine it with elements a bit more on the fancy side – think black velvet linens and gold flatware for a breathtaking tablescape.

With Southern Events Party Rental Company’s in-stock rentals, you can go all-out velvet with couches and chairs, or you can go the understated and elegant route by weaving velvet elements in the details.

All Out Velvet

If you’re obsessed with velvet (hey, we get it!) and want to go all-in for your next party, our Black Velvet Sofa, Saylor Velvet Sofa and Chairs, Henley Gray Tufted Sofa, and Rory Velvet Chairs are going to be great choices for your foundational pieces. Pair with gold accents for an elegant vibe or natural wood for something a bit warmer!

Velvet in Moderation

Are you a fan of “velvet in moderation”? There are SO many velvet linens to choose from. Pick one color and go modern with monochromatic, or pick several colors and go for a boho layered look! We love the muted White, Rose, and Gray Velvet Linens, and we can’t get enough the Merlot Velvet.

We recently had the honor of being part of Hailey and Daniel’s Nashville wedding day at Sycamore Farms. Classy, elegant, and full of warmth – this day was bursting with elements that we are thrilled to share with you. From the lush views of the venue, down to the live band… it was utterly fabulous.

Let’s begin with the gowns. The bride wore a sophisticated white bridal gown with intricate details and a plunging neckline. Her bridesmaids looked elegant and beautiful with black bridesmaids dresses. We always adore a good black and white wedding style.

The couple’s vision for an elegant and classy day was brought to life by whites, golds, and accenting greenery. Hailey and Daniel exchanged vows outdoors under Sycamore Farms’ rustic pergola with 360-degree views, draped with white linens and trailing greenery. Guests watched the nuptials take place, seated in white chairs. Everyone dined and celebrated indoors, with tables dressed in elegant White Satin Linens, White Round China, and chic gold Austin Flatware.

The classiness of this perfect wedding day was leveled up by a live band. We brought in our White Harpeth Staging that fit the “elegant” bill perfectly. Clients adore this staging because of its versatility. We love using this white staging for live bands…it would also be a fabulous piece for a grand head table.

Lovely photography provided by Cannon Weddings. Thank you, Hailey and Daniel, for the honor of being part of your incredible wedding!

Southern Events Party Rental Company’s Boxwood Wall loves going double-duty, and it definitely showed off its skills at a recent event at CJ’s off the Square. Used as a piece of art AND as a creative way to serve champagne to guests, this interactive idea is sure to be found in weddings and events next year.

Our Boxwood Walls are entirely customizable, and we’ve used them in a variety of ways. Photo backdrops, seating charts, room separators, and grand entrances – just to name a few. This recent champagne wall really takes the cake for us. Creative, interactive, gorgeous, and full of bubbly – we’re definitely here for it! Guests were delighted as they walked by this fun backdrop, grabbed a glass of champagne, and stopped for a photo op!

For this event, the Boxwood Wall was adorned with lush florals by the amazing Enchanted Florist. It would also look lovely with a monogram, nostalgic pictures of the bride and groom, or corporate logos if you’re planning a business event.

Thank you, Honeysuckle & Wine, for these lovely images.

Once the temperature drops here in Nashville, TN, we begin dreaming about holiday event & party design. Holiday gatherings, dinner parties, winter weddings, and corporate events are right around the corner! There are hundreds of ways to ensure your guests feel all the holiday vibes. A mid-century glam holiday theme with a navy, gold, and white color combination is one of our current favorite holiday looks. Glamorous and full of mid-century nods, you’ll have your guests celebrating Don Draper-style, with a side of chic. Here are the rentals you need to bring this holiday party design to life:

Gold

Gold metallics such as our Loren Bistro Table and Avenue Shelving add clean, sophisticated lines. Other gold elements such as our Champagne Sequin Linen bring in that glam effect.

White

White elements bring in that clean and mod look that is so iconic when it comes to mid-century themes. We suggest using our Harpeth Bar, Mercer Lounge Collection, or Mid-Century Bar Stools!

Navy

Navy is such a luxe neutral, and it really doesn’t get more luxe than navy velvet. Our Saylor Sofa, Navy Blue Velvet Linens, and Rory Navy Velvet Chairs are absolutely perfect for this.

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.

Outdoor wedding ceremonies in Nashville, TN come in all shapes and sizes. Couples may opt for an open-air feel for a variety of reasons – one being the sheer beauty and novelty of exchanging vows with Mother Earth as a front-row guest. Many brides and grooms have envisioned an outdoor wedding ceremony for as long as they can remember. We adore being part of wedding celebrations outdoors, and get giddy with excitement when we see it all come together!

An outdoor wedding ceremony does not always mean the wedding is taking place on some form of a lawn. You could use a rooftop or a venue that offers concrete area. If a couple is looking to take it to the next level, Dura-Trac Flooring is the perfect option in terms of creating flooring outdoors. Otherwise, with nature as the backdrop, the sky is certainly the limit in terms of what kind of look one can achieve for an open-air wedding ceremony. Boho, elegant, rustic, intimate, grand – we’ve seen it all. In order to achieve the look you desire, all that is needed is creativity, a plan, and the perfect outdoor wedding ceremony rentals.

Boho Outdoor Weddings

For a boho-themed outdoor wedding ceremony, we love using rentals such as our Rustic Bench for seating. For texture, Cowhide Rugs draped over benches and over the ground are used. This adds warmth, color, and fun! Our Metal Ceremony Ring would fit perfectly here as well.

Traditional Outdoor Weddings

For a more traditional outdoor wedding ceremony, Folding Chairs in black, natural wood, or white and our Walnut Ceremony Doors create a streamlined, classic look. The combination of natural wood, green grass, and a blue sky come together for a memorable and gorgeous day!

Modern  Outdoor Weddings

If a couple is desiring a modern vibe at their wedding ceremony, Acrylic Chairs look absolutely gorgeous – they are the perfect modern approach to seating at an outdoor wedding. Pairing an outdoor setting with modern materials creates an upscale, yet approachable feel.

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.

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.
