Southern Vintage Table Events – Michelle’s Magnificent Birthday Bash

Monique, owner of Keys Events, had a truly special event to both plan and host – her mother’s 60th birthday! As the creative genius of her company, she knew all of the elements for a successful party and, with this one being so personal, she excitedly started planning.

The Parlour at Mann’s Chapel was the ideal venue for this intimate gathering. After its booking and during the months before the October date, invitations were customer designed, menu planned, tablescape chosen, florals contrived, and photos gathered. Enjoy these spectacular photos from Samuel Holt and please note the vendor list at the end of our post.

Birthday Tables

Monique designed the birthday dinner table with our vintage retro dinner plates, wooden salad bowls, and silver-plate flatware. Vintage brown, amber, and red goblets were the perfect complement to the season and florals. We absolutely adore the final look!

When the date arrived everything was ready – a welcoming sign, a charming display of photos, scrumptious cake on display, tables set with our retro place settings, gorgeous florals in place, candles lit, and food ready.

Family and friends arrived early for the surprise celebration and then Michelle, her husband, and mother arrived. The expressions on everyone’s face beautifully portrays this joyous, sweet moment!

Happy birthday, Michelle!
Kudos to Keys Events for creating such a memorable evening
for your family and friends!

Southern Vintage Table Event – Winter-Themed Styled Shoot

Photo by Tugba Tuncer

Collaborating with vendors to create gorgeousness is one of our favorite parts of working in the event and wedding industry. Most of the time we are focused on bringing our client’s dream event to fruition, but when we work together on a styled shoot, creativity is wide open. From inception to finality, the cadre of professionals bring their skills and products to the themed shoot. Sometimes the theme may be like a fairy tale such as a wedding in the style of The Game of Thrones, or it may be a more authentic setting like a fall-themed wedding and reception. Both styles are designed to showcase wares and talents of the professional team and very rewarding to all.

For this photo shoot, winter’s rich hues amid elegance was the theme. Melrose Knitting Mill provided the backdrop for a bridal portrait styled shoot as well as a coordinating tablescape. To see the bridal portrait photos, please visit photographer Tugba Tuncer’s gallery on her website. The series of photos featured here, also taken by Tugba, perfectly fit the look of a sophisticated winter season tablescape. Twig and Tendril along with Fallon Flowers created beautiful florals to accompany our vintage place settings. 

Many thanks to Tugba for inviting us to provide the table settings for this shoot!  Other vendors for this segment of the shoot included:
Venue – Melrose Knitting Mill
Photographer – Tugba Tuncer
Florals – Twig and Tendril and Fallons Flowers
Planner – A Day Soiree
Rental – Homemade Bride and Southern Vintage Table

Best wishes to you, Sara and Galen!  Your backyard wedding was magical, colorful, and joyful. We sincerely thank you for inviting us to help you celebrate on this beautiful day!


Two delightful perks of our business are meeting family members and visiting the venues. On this occasion we met Chuck and Michele, Sara’s parents, and we loved chatting with them about their downtown historic home, their lush backyard, Michele’s knitting business in Apex, appropriately named Downtown Knits, and their happiness about their daughter’s wedding.  And, they submitted this fabulous review on Wedding Wire, which we are so pleased to share today.

Shelly was great to work with – what a pleasure! We had a backyard wedding for my daughter who wanted it to have very eclectic and colorful glassware and assorted table settings on farm tables. Shelly had exactly what we were looking for. The tables turned out beautiful! We will definitely come back to Shelly if and when another event occurs.

It was indeed our pleasure!
