When it comes to winter weddings, there’s a certain magic in the air! Embracing the simplicity and sophistication of the season, consider a black and white color scheme. Whether you’re planning a formal gathering or a more relaxed event. The juxtaposition of these classic hues will lend a timeless look to your day! At Southern Events, we believe that creating a cohesive and beautiful atmosphere is key. That’s why we’re excited to share our favorite ideas for a modern black and white winter wedding, featuring our exquisite event rentals.

Simple Winter Wedding Ceremony Decor

Picture this: saying “I do” surrounded by simple yet stunning decor. We’re talking elegant seating with glowing candles or white floral arrangements placed atop Antique White Columns at the altar. At Southern Events, we have a beautiful inventory of chairs that will make your ceremony pop without stealing the show. Such as our Antique White Bentwood Chairs, bold Black Resin Folding Chairs, or modern Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs. For a little extra coziness, line the aisle with mismatched black and white rugs.

Black & White Wedding Tables

Now, let’s create a modern black and white wedding reception – where the magic really happens. Depending on whether you prefer a bright or moody look, start with crisp white or black tablecloths. They’re like a blank canvas ready for you to get creative with place settings (whereas the Black Nova Linens are perfect for fans of maximalism). Thankfully, Southern Events has a treasure trove of tableware and linens that’ll let you mix and match to create a vibe that’s all you. To contrast a white tablecloth, stack Glass Chargers with Black Rim, Onyx Earthen China or Carrera Marble Dinner Plates, and Noir Matte Black Flatware.

Moody Cocktail Hour Ideas

Time to transition to the celebration! Picture a moody cocktail hour – dim lights, sleek black and white lounge furniture, and high cocktail tables with chic black linens. For a memorable entrance, greet guests with a custom Harpeth Bar or snazzy Collins Black Wood Bar. Large crowds may require our Thompson Full Oval White Bar. However, any of these will look stunning paired with a Black Barback Shelves. And don’t forget signature black and white cocktails in dazzling glassware. Such as our popular Gatsby Coupe Glasses or contemporary Cybil Goblets. Finally, create some cozy spaces to mingle, whether you prefer lofty bistro tables or lounges.

When it comes to event design, staying on-trend is essential to creating a memorable experience. One design trend that continues to captivate event planners and guests is the use of all-black event decor! This bold choice can transform any celebration into a sophisticated affair. At Southern Events, we believe in pushing the boundaries of event design, and the all-black trend is no exception. From luxurious weddings to elegant corporate soirees, let’s explore how all-black event design is stealing the spotlight.

All-Black Event Designs Fits the Bill

Don’t be fooled! All-black event design is a versatile look fitting for any celebration. Whether the affair is formal or casual, this color scheme offers a timeless and elegant ambiance. Imagine a luxurious wedding or all-black dinner party with a touch of gold accents. Where the contrast between the black backdrop and glistening gold creates a stunning visual effect. For those seeking an edgier vibe, picture an urban soiree in the heart of Downtown Nashville. The all-black decor will blend with the city’s contemporary atmosphere, creating an event that is trendy and chic. And let’s not forget about corporate events! Whether it’s a high-profile fundraiser or an elegant gala, an all-black formal event design will lend to an atmosphere of understated luxury.

Edgy All Black Tablescapes Ideas

The charm of an all-black event design lies in its ability to create various moods. From the romantic to the avant-garde! When it comes to tablescapes, there are endless creative possibilities to explore! Create a modern minimalist setting when you start with our Black Poly Tablecloth. Topped with Onyx Earthen China and Black Pindot Napkins. Lend a contemporary touch with our Brushed Copper Flatware and Cybil Glassware. For a more luxurious vibe, feature the busy Nova Linens with a Black Rim Glass Charger complemented by Noir Matte Black Flatware.

Dare to rock a more edgy, yet still stylish, look? Pair our buttery Black Velvet Linens with Black Round Lacquer Chargers and quirky Como Flatware. If you want a subtle hint of color, we recommend napkins in bold or jewel tones. Such as the beautiful Aubergine Poly, Magnolia Green Velvet, or Navy Dupioni.

Moody Cocktail Lounges

A cocktail hour is a time for guests to mingle, sip on delectable drinks, and immerse themselves in the event’s atmosphere. Elevate the experience by creating an intimate and luxurious vibe with all-black cocktail hour rentals. Choose sleek black lounge furniture that invites guests to relax and socialize. Such as our Regent Black Velvet Sofa. Complemented by Claro Metal Side Tables and Acrylic Ghost Armchairs. Alternatively, the Sloan Sofa and Armchairs offer a stylish yet casual vibe. Complete the look with a cozy Black-Silver rug!

Black Event Bars & Shelving

To create an equally dark yet functional cocktail bar, grab our striking Collins Black Wood Bar and a set of Black Bar Back Shelves. They are a perfect pair whether you plan to feature an open-bar or large batch cocktails at a self-serve station. If you want extra seating or standing areas around the bar, feature bistro tables covered in dark linens. Along with a set of Acrylic Ghost Barstools or Chiavari Black Barstools.

Nothing beats the classic elegance of black-and-white wedding design! This timeless color combination is perfect for any season and creates a sleek and sophisticated ambiance for your big day. Get inspired by a styled shoot hosted at Diamond Creek Farm, featuring stylish event rentals from Southern Events Online. From chic acrylic seating to bold linens, we have everything you need to host an elevated black-and-white wedding.

Simple Chic Ceremony

For this styled shoot, we aimed to showcase the beauty of a modern black-and-white wedding. Starting with an elegant outdoor ceremony! Hosting outdoors is all about letting nature shine. At Diamond Creek, this entails the sprawling Tennessee farmlands. Just past the veranda, a manicured lawn overlooking the countryside is a fitting setting for a vow exchange. Ceremony seating consisted of our Acrylic Ghost Armless Chairs. The clear material is chic and it doesn’t take away from the view. The outdoor space is elevated with a floral backdrop made of white flowers and dark greenery. An equally stunning alternative, consider our Fiona Mantle with the same flower arrangement. Off to the side, a bistro table is dressed up with Black Nova Linens for a live painter.

Luxe Black and White Lounge

An elegant black and white lounge area with some grey accents is the perfect addition to any wedding. An essential for a cocktail hour! This type of setup creates a chic and sophisticated space for guests to relax and socialize in. Start with our luxurious Henley Grey Velvet Tufted Sofa and the matching Armchairs. To frame the space we always recommend a rug, and in this case, our Black-Silver Rug is perfect. It pairs beautifully with a set of Echo Mirror Silver Side Tables. If you like a little contrast, place a Gold Hammered Coffee Table in the center. Or you can keep to the color scheme and opt for pewter.

Contemporary Tablescape

The table was set with a stunning combination of black-and-white elements. We used a Grey Goose tablecloth as the base, complemented by a romantic Dove Grey Table Runner. The use of soft grey linens allowed the pure white flower centerpieces to shine! On top, we placed Glass Chargers with a Black Rim and Earthen Onyx China to create contrast. Matched by Noir Matte Black Flatware and solid Black Poly Napkins. Cybil Wine Glasses and Champagne flutes were a fun and funky addition that lent a contemporary flair. Complete with the same acrylic seating from the ceremony, this tablescape exudes modern luxury. Thanks to the natural palette it is also versatile! It would look just as beautiful for a minimalist celebration in a modern event barn as it would for a black-tie wedding in a grand ballroom.

Meanwhile, crisp napkins paired with White Round China and Bradley Flatware kept the look modern and airy. Our Gold Chiavari Chairs are a sophisticated touch, as is the Tessa Tufted Beige Linen Loveseat, overall, a super cozy detail the newlyweds will enjoy.

Refreshing Blue & Green Hues

This spring wedding inspiration stars refreshing blue and green hues, for a soft and organic vibe. It’s a gorgeous look for an early spring wedding as we come out of a cold and dreary winter!

Furthermore, tie in splashes of green using buttery napkins in the color Fern, and create an elegant drink station to greet guests using our Green Goblets.

Pair it with Amber Goblets and Austin Flatware to round out the look. Use runners for a layered maximalist design, or keep the look simple yet luxe with vibrant napkins. Or use mismatched napkins in retro tones, placed atop Earthen Alabaster China, for a whimsical touch!

A Retro Chic-Cocktail Hour

Planning to host a cocktail hour on the big day? Colorful wedding rentals are our favorite, and that’s exactly what a retro-chic cocktail hour calls for!

Today we’re sharing our in stock wedding chair rentals, with unique styles for every type of event! Including classic folding and wood chairs, plus on-theme options!

Wood Chairs

Let’s start with the most popular option, wood chairs for rent! These beautiful pieces tend to be desirable as they lend an elegant and timeless look to an event, thanks to the natural wood stains. They look especially beautiful in an outdoor setting, such as a backyard ceremony or tented reception. The go-to is are our Cross-Back Chairs with their sleek design. However, our Adeline and Harlin Dining Chairs are stunning statement pieces that offer a more high-end look. Just don’t forget to add a cushion for extra comfort!

In 2022 we brought a lot of trends to fruition, from micro-weddings and backyard gatherings, to boho and retro-inspired rentals, as well as neutral and earth-toned color palettes. But now it’s time to look to the future! Today we’re going to take a look at some of the anticipated 2022 event trends, so that you can start planning your best gathering yet.

Bridgerton-Inspired Design

We saw a snippet of this trend in 2021, with opulent garden parties. But in 2022, we’re taking it to the next level with set ups inspired by the hit series Bridgerton, also known as Cottagecore. For this event style, we’re expecting pastel-rich color palettes, luxe textures, and vintage-inspired furniture.

Start with memorable tablescapes, featuring unique colors and fun rentals. For example, our Fern or Sea Glass velvet linens, or more decade appropriate Blue Kensington print. Top them off with our mismatched Heirloom China, or break up all the prints with our dainty Darcy China. The best choice for flatware is our versatile Abby or Sophia flatware. Finally, incorporate a splash of texture with our Green or Amber Goblets.

If you’re hosting an accurate event, then you’ll also need an equally impressive cocktail hour setup – high-society gatherings were all about mingling! Rent our Franklin Antique White Bar and a lounge to match. Such as our Fern Velvet Sofa, a set of Everly Chairs, and our Rhodes Coffee and side tables. Cocktail tables are also available for those who prefer to remain standing room!

Sequel Weddings!

Due to a large number of couples postponing their nuptials in 2021, sequel weddings will be a hit in 2022. That is, a big party following an intimate ceremony. Which can also be used following a vow renewal, or any type of post-pandemic celebration. These events will be focused on living in the moment, so they don’t have to be luxe – but they can be!

At these events, we’ll want to help create a small and cozy feel, which can be achieved with soft textures and warm colors. Think earthy, natural tones, like Terra Cotta or Rust. For a ceremony, start with our classic White or Fruitwood Folding Chairs and line the aisle with mismatched cowhide rugs.

For your reception, as well as any other small dinners, you’ll want to create cozy tablescapes and lounge areas where people can gather. Start with one of our beautiful Farm Tables paired with a neutral-colored runner, in Ivory or Natural Sahara. Next, feature simple serving ware, such as our Artisan or Earthen Alabaster China. For some fun pops of color, consider our Amber Goblets and elegant velvet napkins in Spice or Cameo Blush. Easily create a complementary lounge with our Santorini Off-White Sofa and Adeline Dining Chairs.

Mocktails & Sober Cocktails

Wellness is a priority for a large amount of the population at the start of a new year. And to help you and your guests achieve that goal throughout the year, we recommend upping your mocktail game! Which is easy to achieve with our wide selection of gorgeous glassware rentals. For this 2022 event trend, grab some of our favorites, like our Audrey Gold Rim Glassware and Whimsical Cybil Glassware. If you want a more colorful look, go with our Colored Glassware in a Meridian Blue and Smoke.

At Southern Events, we’re excited to help you continue to celebrate with these 2022 event trends! A reminder, however, that as we see an increase in gatherings our rentals will book up faster than ever. Be sure to secure your rentals as soon as possible to ensure that the pieces you love the most will be available at the time of your event. Reach out today, at info@southerneventsonline.com!
