On Trend: Luxe Event Linens for Backyard Parties

On Trend, Southern Events Products, Trends and Inspiration

pink velvet linens

When hosting a backyard party we like to go big! And that starts with creating memorable tablescapes at which people can gather to dine and socialize. The foundation of which are your linens, which set the stage for your event design. Today we’re sharing our luxe event linens that will elevate your outdoor celebrations in Nashville. Keep reading to learn about our in-stock rentals, available in a range of on-trend colors and high-end materials.

On Trend Colors

By far the easiest way to choose the best linens for your event tables is considering color. For a backyard party, we recommend one of two options. First, go bold with striking color! In the spring, we love soft pastels that pop against a lush natural setting – say pink or purple. Although dusty hues, like blue, can be equally beautiful. Second, keep it natural! Opting for colors that complement an outdoor space is an easy way to achieve a timeless look. Consider a crisp white or light shades of brown, like driftwood or taupe. More recently greens have been a hit, in sage and moss.

Luxurious Materials

In addition to colors, the type of materials you feature can help set the tone for your event. Our selection of luxe event linens includes a range of materials, from soft velvets to buttery satin and more! Here are just a few of our current favorites!

Velvet Event Linens

Velvet linens are the latest and greatest fad in event linen rentals. Largely because it is a simple yet effective way to feature texture at your tables. And it’s available in a huge array of gorgeous colors! For a backyard gathering, we recommend bright colors like Light Pink, Sea Glass, or Fern Velvet. Or, for an especially sophisticated look, opt for one of our etched designs featuring metallic accents. Such as Dusty Blue Etched Velvet or White Etched Velvet.

Satin Linens

Satin linens are a more classic option for tablecloths, but a modern option thanks to the wide range of colors available! The buttery material is light yet has a slight sheen that oozes luxury. During the spring, it is one of our favorite choices – and it will be yours too if you have an appreciation for pastels. Consider colors like Wisteria, Mint, Mediterranean, and Wheat.

Kennedy Linens

With their gorgeous texture, Kennedy Linens are one of our favorite tablecloths for a backyard party. Lightweight and with a natural feel, it is one of the best choices if you’re hosting a laid-back event with an upscale and airy vibe. It comes in a range of natural colors, including Cactus, Fawn, Topaz, and White. Make sure to grab matching napkins – but in a different color!

Pink and mint walked into a wedding at @cjsoffthesquare and honestly? They owned it. 🌸

Floral ceremony, white folding chairs, and reception tables that committed fully to the color story.

Moody done right. 🍷
Deep plum linens, rattan chargers, and our Lucia Frayed Napkins — this table had texture coming from every direction without ever feeling like too much.

The @franklinrodeo is proof that corporate events don't have to play it safe 🤠

Amber glassware, cowhide rugs, wood furniture, a large bar — the setup had a clear point of view and the crowd responded to it. When the rental selections match the energy of the event, guests notice!

Something new is in the showroom ✨

Meet Welles — a soft blue china with a delicate pattern around the rim that sits right in that sweet spot between understated and memorable. Also available in Wheat for a warmer take on the same quiet elegance.

Fresh, bright, and just the right amount of fun. 🍊

This setup for @GraceWorksTN is giving us all the spring feels — orange and white pops of color paired with our new Natural Willow chairs. Simple, cozy, and somehow exactly right.

Harlindale Farm hits different in the evening. 🌿

Loved being part of the @friendsoffranklinparks event — barn setting, bright linens, vintage-inspired blue glassware, and the kind of crowd that genuinely cares about this place. Franklin does community well!

Cocktail hour deserves a proper glass. 🍋

The right glassware changes how a drink feels in your hand — and how it looks on the table. These citrus-forward sips hit different when they're served right.
