News – A Plethora of Photos Are In!

We absolutely adore our vintage-loving clients! And, when they share their cherished photos with us, we are over-the-moon with appreciation! Our mailbox has been overflowing with images from the fall season and with so many choices, our wonderful dilemma was selecting which one to feature today. Our solution was simple – share a photo from each one! We are still waiting for a few more galleries but, in the meantime, here is a glimpse of four fall weddings.

These venues were as varied as the styles – The Meadows at Firefly Farm in Raleigh, The Glen At Glenburn Farms in Vinton, Virginia, Timberlake Earth Sanctuary in Whitsett, and Highrock Farm in Oxford. All are beautiful places to get married!

What was the most popular rental? Our vintage colored goblets! One wedding rented a mix of light blue and light green, one was all about amber, and the other two went for a colorful array. Our vintage dinner plates were also quite popular and three of the weddings chose three different collections – white/cream with a gold rim, bold retro, and a mix of blue/white and florals.

We can’t resist sharing one more photo from each! Come back to see future blogs featuring more of these lovely vintage weddings.

Southern Vintage Table Event – Beauty at the Barn at Valhalla

Oh my goodness! When these photos were shared with us, we were awestruck! The vibrant colors, lush florals, and vintage place settings created a very beautiful and personalized backdrop for this couple’s wedding day at The Barn at Vahalla.

Kacie and Eric’s wedding day was postponed several times but on this lovely day in late August, the planets were all aligned for this sweet couple to become wife and husband. Their design was very much a mission of love. Kacie and Eric came to our studio twice to finalize their look and a week before the wedding, Kacie spent an afternoon choosing each place setting for their guests. The final result? Perfection!

We are so happy for you two! Your day was romantic, magical,and perfectly you. Best wishes!!

Southern Vintage Table Events – Tea Parties for Baby & Bride

New mom or bride – celebrating these life-changing events with the important women in our lives is a beloved time-honored tradition. Showering the new mom or bride with attention and gifts while serving yummy refreshments is why we love these parties.

Hosting a shower tea party is so much fun! With the pretty vintage teacups, teapots, and serving pieces, the shower is instantly elegant. Today’s photos come courtesy of two clients who would agree!

The first event was a tea party baby shower, held in New Bern at the new mom’s home. This buffet table is gorgeous and the array of teacups is so pretty!

Christine honored her daughter with a bridal shower, held in Winston Salem at her home. Note that tables were set with the vintage tea place settings The romantic touches with the tea place settings beautifully suit this sweet occasion.

Thanks for sharing these photos with us, Lynn and Christine. Baby or bride, a tea party shower is a wonderful way to celebrate these beautiful moments. (BTW, both clients picked up and returned the rentals from our studio. This option is also available to you.)

Absolutely Thankful, but Feeling a Little Lazy

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving this year! After eating a not-so-good takeout dinner last year, we enjoyed all of the Thanksgiving traditional dishes with one side of the family and, on Friday, we enjoyed a cookout with the other. Everything was home-cooked delicious and hanging with kinfolk felt so good.

This weekend is the first free weekend Southern Vintage Table has had since mid August. We are absolutely grateful and appreciative for all of our clients and vendor friends, but we are feeling a bit lazy today. Looking forward to sharing more photo galleries of fall weddings with ya’ll!

Southern Vintage Table Events – Boho Beautiful Wedding

Today you will be treated to RaShawnda and Collin’s beautiful Boho wedding held this past month at Bakery 105 in Wilmington. Courtesy of Grayden Knoll‘s photos, we were awed by everything, from the arch to the brick walls, and especially by this gorgeous couple.

We met RaShawnda when she came to the studio with her talented planner, Hayley of An Event to Remember. Together they designed the centerpieces and sweetheart table using our vintage decor. They chose vintage books, wooden and brass candleholders, wood slices, amber and green peg votives, and amber goblets for the sweetheart table. An assortment of our framed mirrors and blackboards were also needed to greet guests

Now, take a look and be sure to scroll all the way down – we saved the best for last!

Southern Vintage Table Events – Our Vintage Glassware Gleams at Fundraiser Dinner

This fall we had the unique opportunity to help with a fundraiser meal held at The Uwharrrie Mercantile in Troy, NC. “The Supper Club with Anthony” was organized to feature this talented chef as well as a fundraiser to support a local candidate for sheriff. A two-for-oner!

When our clients, who were spearheading the event, visited the studio they knew what they wanted for this special meal. First, vintage white stoneware plates were requested by Chef Anthony to complement his menu. The clients decided on small vintage elegant salad plates, stainless flatware, and, as you see in our photos, vintage colored goblets. Brian King’s photos truly capture their vintage beauty.

We loved their selection of vintage serving bowls for Anthony’s delicious rolls and, for the butter, they chose to use vintage teacups and saucers. Awesome idea, right?

Thanks, Stacey and team, for choosing us to help with your event. After meeting ya’ll, we have added Troy and the Uhwarrie Mercantile to our places-to-visit list!

Southern Vintage Table Events – An Exquisite Garden Wedding

Their’s was not the typical wedding. The ceremony was scheduled for the middle of the day at a lush garden, The JC Raulston Arboretum. After the celebratory meal, the guests were treated to tea time, complete with wedding cake and desserts. Tea time is a part of Juri and Sebastian’s daily time together and they invited their guests to join them on their wedding day. Such a sweet, meaningful jesture!

That’s where we came in. Our vintage teacups, pots, tiered stands, sugar and creamer sets, and assorted table decor were used on the dessert and guests’ tables. Each table had a color theme – gold, green, blue, and pink/purple – and the pieces selected coordinated with it. We fondly recall the day Paula and Stephanie, owner of Beauty and the Budget Events, visited the studio to design the tables. They were so excited that their tea party idea would be realized as a unique part of the wedding reception. And, Brian Anthony Photography captured it all!

Radiating with jubilance, Paula and Sebastian were married in a way that reflected themselves and their devotion to each other. Beautifully done, and congratulations!

Southern Vintage Table Events – A Perfect Day for a Wedding

A new venue is in town and we’ve got the scoop! We were introduced to Union Grove Farm through our clients, Jamie and Shawn, whose gorgeous wedding embraced this outdoor bonanza of beauty and that’s not all! Set in this lovely landscape, the spacious inside of the barn is filled with natural light. Thanks to these photos by Cirque91, you’ll see what we mean!

The windows, hanging lights, and plank flooring created an alluring atmosphere for Jamie and Shawn’s wedding reception. Southern Vintage Table provided table settings that included a mix of vintage blue and clear goblets, vintage white stoneware plates, and vintage stainless flatware. We also furnished an assortment of clear bottles and vintage vases for their centerpieces. With the blue cloths and pink napkins, these sweet tables were ready for their family and friends.

Thanks, Jamie and Shawn, along with Hayley and Hannah of An Event to Remember for giving us the opportunity to be a part of this joyful wedding day. Wishing you everything happy and wonderful!

Shelly was AMAZING to work with! I set up a meeting where she helped guide me in various options for tabletop items and then let me play around to find the perfect combination. I loved that I was able to use vintage mismatched plates, silverware, and beautiful blue and clear glass goblets for my wedding. It was stunning! I also loved that I could support a small local business. Would 10/10 highly recommend!

Southern Vintage Table Events – Floral Fiesta for Farmers, Florists, & Friends

“Join us for an informal poolside gathering to celebrate the end of summer with snacks, local cider from Botanist and Barrel, and other libations. Here’s a chance to make some new connections within our amazing flower community. Hope you can stop by!”

It’s not every day you are given a invitation to meet like-minded folks, find inspiration, get advice, and build your business connections. And, with the offer of food and libations, it’s a golden opportunity!

Carrie, owner of Fernrock Farm, hosted this gathering and asked Southern Vintage Table to help with the tablescape, serving dishes, and glassware. With yellows, browns, and teals as the core color schema, we choose vintage tablecloths, wood serving pieces, and vintage retro plates. Individual vintage compotes and bowls were filled with fruit salad as well as hummus and chips. Once the dishes were filled with cheese, crackers, sandwiches, cookies, and nuts, the floral fiesta began!

We all had a fantastic time at the floral fiesta for farmers, florists, and friends, snacking on delicious treats and chatting about our businesses, ourselves, and our future collaborations. Thanks, Carrie, for bringing us all together for a fun evening!

“I really enjoyed meeting everyone and the chance to have a much needed night out with kindred spirits!
I left inspired and re-invigorated to take my own business to the next level and source more supplies and services locally among fellow vendors.“
