Let’s talk about the heartbeat of your wedding reception—the dance floor! It’s where lovebirds twirl, where your besties show off their moves, and where the party truly comes to life. Whether you’re hosting a modern wedding in Downtown Nashville or a dreamy countryside soiree, we believe that your dance floor isn’t just about function! It should complement your venue, match your style, and invite guests to kick off their shoes and dance the night away. From elegant plank wood to bold checkered floors, let’s dive into the perfect wedding dance floor for your celebration in Music City.

Choosing a Wedding Dance Floor Style

Your wedding dance floor serves as a focal point for your reception, drawing guests in and setting the tone for the night’s festivities. It also enhances your wedding photos, adding an elegant or playful touch depending on your chosen style. Let’s explore the different options we currently carry!

1. Classic Plank Wood Dance Floor

For couples who love a warm, rustic, or traditional aesthetic, a plank wood dance floor is a perfect choice. Ideal for barn weddings, outdoor tented receptions, or classic ballroom settings, this dance floor brings a natural and timeless look to your event.

Best for: Rustic, vintage, or elegant outdoor weddings.

Pair with: Wooden farm tables, string lighting, and neutral-toned décor for a cozy, romantic vibe.

2. Sleek Black or White Dance Floor

A single-tone black or white dance floor offers a sleek, modern touch. A white dance floor adds an airy, elegant feel, perfect for all-white wedding themes or luxury receptions. On the other hand, a black dance floor can create a chic and dramatic ambiance, especially when paired with moody uplighting.

Best for: Modern, minimalist, or upscale weddings.

Pair with: Crystal chandeliers, contemporary furniture, and metallic accents for a sophisticated look.

3. Black and White Dance Floor

For a bold, retro-inspired look, a black and white checkered dance floor is a standout choice. This vintage style brings a touch of old Hollywood glam and pairs beautifully with Art Deco or Gatsby-themed celebrations. It also makes for incredible, high-contrast wedding photos!

Best for: Vintage, Art Deco, or fun, playful weddings.

Pair with: Gold accents, geometric décor, and a live jazz band for a roaring ’20s feel.

Enhancing Your Dance Floor Experience

Once you’ve chosen the perfect wedding dance floor, consider these add-ons to create an immersive and engaging experience.

1. Lounge Areas with a View

Not every guest will be hitting the dance floor, but that doesn’t mean they should feel disconnected. Lounge areas surrounding the dance floor create a comfortable space where guests—especially grandparents or those who prefer to sit—can still enjoy the energy of the celebration. Plush seating, cocktail tables, and stylish décor make these areas feel intentional and inviting.

2. A Statement Centerpiece: Cake Table or Champagne Tower

Want to make an unforgettable first impression? Consider placing a cake table or champagne tower at the center of the dance floor during cocktail hour or before dinner service. This grand focal point draws attention and provides a picture-perfect moment before the dance floor is fully opened.

3. Staging for Live Music or a DJ

If you’re planning to have a live band or DJ, a stage is a must. Elevating your entertainers ensures they are easily visible and helps to define the dance floor area. Southern Events offers staging rentals that seamlessly integrate with your wedding dance floor setup, providing a polished and professional look.

When the temperature drops and the winter chill sets in, many couples opt for the cozy embrace of an indoor wedding ceremony.

Seating That Says “Welcome Home”

Seating is a key element of any indoor wedding, often occupying a significant portion of the space. The right chairs do more than provide comfort—they help set the mood for your entire ceremony. Begin by selecting seating that blends elegance with a welcoming feel. Our Harlin and Adeline Dining Chairs offer a sense of homeliness, making your celebration feel like an extension of your living room. For those who prefer traditional elegance, our Cross-Back Chairs bring timeless appeal to any setting. Meanwhile, our Antique White Bentwood Chairs add a classic romantic touch. Alternatively, provide a dramatic, moody flair that’s sure to captivate your guests with the Black Willow Chairs.

Aisle Decor That Steals the Show

Transform your aisle into a picturesque pathway with indoor wedding decorations that add warmth and visual interest. Layered vintage rugs in subtle hues can soften the look of cold concrete or hardwood floors to create a plush and inviting walkway. Alternatively, keep the aisle clear and use a rug to frame the altar area, making it the focal point of your ceremony. Enhance the entrance to your aisle with whiskey barrels adorned with large floral arrangements that cascade elegantly onto the floor. For a backdrop, a wooden cross or our white Fiona Mantle can set a charming scene. And if your ceremony is on the longer side, provide a cozy spot for the bride and groom to relax. Perhaps a pair of velvet armchairs, such as the Clover Velvet in rich emerald or the Saylor Navy Velvet.

Details that Wow

The details are what make your indoor ceremony truly memorable. Consider adding a touch of luxury with a champagne display! A grab-and-go station set up with one of our stylish bookshelves and elegant glassware will leave your guests impressed and talking long after the event. For a seasonal twist, you might also set up a coffee or cocoa station featuring a market cart. A little something that encourages guests to mingle while they wait for the ceremony to start. And don’t forget the fun factor—our nostalgic popcorn machine can serve up gourmet popcorn. Consider festive flavors like white chocolate and peppermint flakes or mixed with red and green M&Ms.

With these thoughtful touches, you can create a warm and intimate indoor wedding ceremony that’s both elegant and cozy. At Southern Events, we’re here to help you bring your vision to life with our extensive range of rentals and design guidance. Reach out today and let us assist you in making your indoor wedding ceremony a real treat!
