Winter may be in full swing, but that’s no excuse to halt the jubilations! In fact, it’s the perfect time to gather, to reap the warmth provided by the love of family and friends. To help you host a memorable get-together, Southern stocks a range of cozy event rentals that will encourage guests to sit, sip and soak it all in. Take a look at some of our favorite winter party rentals, from plush lounge furniture to luxe linens, perfect for hosting a cozy seasonally-inspired celebration.

Plush Velvet Lounge Areas

If there is one essential for a chilly winter party, it’s a cozy lounge area – maybe two! Indoor or outdoor, your guests will want a plush place to sit back, relax, and mingle. Even more so if you have plans for a well-stocked bar. We offer a range of gorgeous furniture pieces that you can mix and match to create a stunning lounge. Our Fern Velvet Sofa or Henley Grey Velvet Tufted Sofa are elegant pieces, which can be paired with a set of loveseats or armchairs. Popular choices include our Gold Bamboo Arm Chair and White Eiffel Arm Chair, which offer a trendy modern retro look. Just don’t forget to grab one of our beautiful rugs to frame the space and add a little extra warmth!

Metallic-Focused Holiday Tablescapes

When it comes to winter event tables, the most popular choice for serving ware are pieces that star metallic accents. Such as our Glass Charger with Gold Rim, Austin Gold Flatware, and Celia Gold Rim Glassware. To help warm up your table and create a more welcoming or cozy look, we recommend adding in a splash of colors and textures. Start with elegant linens in a warm color, like Moss Green Crush or Havana Ecru. Velvet napkins are an easy way to add a fun pop of color, as well as a soft texture. Opt for our elegant White Etched Velvet or a brilliant Navy Blue. If your plates or serving ware feature metallics, sub traditional glassware for colored tumblers or water goblets.

Create a Toasty Place to Gather

Hosting a gathering at home or the office but feeling limited on space? We offer a variety of winter party tent rentals that will allow you to create an ultra-cozy covered space for parties of every size. Our Ready-to-Party tent packages are a convenient solution, with all the essentials for between 30 to 75 guests. After you’ve secured a tent, customize the space with heating solutions. We stock a Blowing-Style Heater to warm up any size tent, as well as a Hammered Rectangular Fire Pit – perfect for creating a cozy area to lounge or toast marshmallows. Surround it with any of our plush ottomans, such as Chocolate Poufs, as well as pillows and blankets.

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 Heater

If you plan on hosting an event that runs well into the night, you should be prepared for the temperature to drop. Our portable Umbrella-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 Sand is super cozy, in addition to being the perfect neutral 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!
