Southern Vintage Table Events – We Are Featured in Southern Weddings Magazine – Twice!

Southern Weddings Magazine

We are SO excited and maybe even a little giddy!! This past spring we were invited to share some of our vintage treasures for two different features in this year’s Southern Weddings V9 magazine. For one shoot we supplied our three vintage punch bowls, punch cups, a pink enameled tub, and a milk glass compote. The second shoot we happily provided some of our most favorite patterns from our vintage dinnerware collection. That was May and we’ve been counting the months since.

November is here and we got word that the Southern Weddings V9 magazine was ready! We received a sneak preview of this beautiful publication and eagerly looked for our lovelies. We found our punch bowls and such in a gorgeous feature called “Chapel Charm” and then our china in the elegant “Greenbriar Getaway” article.  How thrilling to see how our pieces were incorporated into these two creative styled shoots and to find our name – Southern Vintage Table – in the vendor listing. Whoop, whoop!!

The official launch is this Thursday, November 10, so you’ll need to wait just a wee bit to get your copy of Southern Weddings V9 and for us to reveal more from these two articles. We soooo look forward to sharing them with you!

Southern Vintage Table Events – Vintage Milk Glass Centerpieces

We have some pretty photographs to share today from Brian and Heidi’s June wedding, courtesy of KM Photography.  Filled with gorgeous flowers from Fernrock Farm, a local flower grower, a trio of our milk glass vases and compotes took center stage on each of their reception tables. How beautiful is this?

Southern Vintage Table Events – Two Weddings & A Tea Party

Southern Vintage Table Vintage China Rental NC

We have been busy, busy, busy this week getting ready for 3 events next weekend and, of course, we are excited about each one! One wedding embraces an elegant style; the other features our casual collection. And, a set of uniquely different tea sets will be gracing the tables at Sunday’s tea party.

This is what is so cool about vintage tableware – the styles, colors, patterns, composition, and textures can vary dramatically. Whether it’s retro, rustic, boho, casual, elegant, shabby chic, farmhouse, or eclectic, vintage is versatile and distinctive.

Next weekend we will be sharing the depth and breadth of vintage style and this definitely, without a doubt, makes us smile! (Oh my, I’m a poet …)

Vintage Feature – Vintage Centerpiece Jam Session

Vintage Decor at Southern Vintage Table

Today is centerpiece creation day! We’ve pulled samples of  of our vintage items – milk glass vases, tins, small silver-plate trays, books, candle holders, petite art, and such – and we are ready to work with our engaged couple to help them design unique reception centerpieces.

Vintage Tins and Milk Glass at Southern Vintage Table

We’ve measured a space equal to one of their tables, set it with plates, and will be filling the center with a collection of wonderful vintage treasures.  Our goal will be to create a set of vignette formulas for their tables so there’s both cohesiveness yet unique-ness for each table.

Vintage Feature – It’s August and We’re Back!

Southern Vintage TableOur summer hiatus is over and we are back! Our weekly Sunday blog post picks up today and lots of things have happened in July. Truthfully, we can’t check off several things on our to-do list, but we are here today to celebrate two triumphs.

1. We hit 100!

Whoop, whoop!  We now have 100 white dinner plates in our inventory. If you want a clean, crisp palette with unique touch, we have a mix of white and cream china/stoneware patterns that will add a cool factor to your tables.

2. We went for gold!

We finally did it – got the gold spray paint out and transformed a few pieces.  We’re going to hold off sharing all of our make-overs, but here’s one that’s like, Wow.  Feature this stunner on your table to reflect a beautiful bouquet or use it as a gleaming sign. Many possibilities!

Thanks for your visit.  We thought this quote expressed our sentiments about why, alas, our to-do list is still a bit too long.

Vintage Feature – Our First Pinterest Board “Wish List” Order!

Southern Vintage Table
These are just some of the vintage lovelies used in our three events this week!

In spite of the rainy weather here in NC we’ve had a productive week at Southern Vintage Table. First, our china was picked up for a shoot designed by Southern Weddings at a lovely West Virginia venue. More will be coming on this, for sure. Then, we received two new orders for the week – one for a wedding and one for a bridal shower. And, as a final very bright spot to the week, we were asked to help with the wedding of a dear friend whose daughter is getting married next June. We do love being busy!

We are very excited, of course, to help with each of these events but two things made the bridal shower a pretty special request. Not only were we thrilled to work with Maria again – we helped with her wedding two years ago – but she became our first client to create a Pinterest board wish list for the items she wanted from our inventory. Yay!

We shared this planning idea in a recent post, “Vintage Tip – Collaborate with Us to Create a Wish List, and it worked great. Maria created a board for the shower, pinned items from our inventory, and added notes to the pins.  The part about adding the notes was Maria’s brilliant touch, and we appreciate this tweak to the process.  We easily provided a quote and started packing. As we said before, it’s easy, peezy and we look forward to collaborating with you!

Thought we’d end today’s post with one of our favorite photos of Maria & Jonathan’s reception tables.  Don’t you love those vintage goblets?  See more from this beautiful wedding here!

Vintage Feature – Classic, Clean, White Vintage Stoneware

Southern Vintage Table - Vintage Stoneware

Vintage milk glass and weddings are meant for each other. These snowy vases, filled with colorful flowers, greenery, and succulents, create a wonderful look for this joyful occasion. We loved the wedding table centerpieces featured in a previous post, “Vintage Milk Glass is Perfect for a Wedding.” With Fernrock Farm florals in our vintage milk glass containers and the vibrant orange napkins, the guest tables were gorgeous and fun, befitting with this happy day.

We now have another option that will give you that same crisp look, but with a little variation – vintage white stoneware. The opaque white color, heft, smooth surface, and variation of sizes offer a style with a little vintage kitchen flair.

Southern Vintage Table - Vintage Stoneware

Currently we have over 25 pieces in multiple shapes, styles, and sizes available in our inventory. Whether you tuck a large or petite arrangement inside, the look is classic, crisp,  and clean. Consider our vintage white stoneware for your tables as you plan your next event!

Southern Vintage Table Event – Three Terrific Takeaways from Rose Hill Styled Shoot

Rose Hill Styled Shoot by Events by Memory Lane

Recently I received the most exciting invitation!  Stacy Newburg, event planner and owner of Events by Memory Lane, was organizing her first styled shoot and asked if we would like to participate. Recalling our wonderful collaboration at Anna & Anthony’s wedding last summer, I said “yes!” and that was even before she revealed her blue & white vintage Southern elegant theme, a look I absolutely love.

After selecting the vintage table settings, linens, and decor pieces together one afternoon, Stacy then invited me to help on the day of the shoot. Intrigued to see the behind-the-scenes of a photo shoot, I just couldn’t pass this up. Even though we have provided items for many styled shoots and have appreciated the beautiful photographs from them, I haven’t actually seen the entire process  at work and this was my chance!

Well, let me say, the day of the styled shoot was busy, busy, busy, and pretty darn awesome!  The weather was gorgeous at this breathtaking historic venue, the vendors organized, models dressed and styled, and photographers on the go. Stacy planned everything, from the table settings to the boutonnieres to the enthusiastic and beautiful models. Breakfast and lunch were served, and a detailed plan set for all to follow. It was quite impressive to see the day play out.

Here are three takeaways from this marvelous day!

One – It requires a lot of coordination to pull off a styled shoot. As you can appreciate below, a full lineup of vendors is needed to create a mockup wedding day. Many, many kudos to Stacy for selecting such a terrific group of wedding professionals, and for her passion and joy.

Two It’s all in the details. The teamwork of Stacy and Tiffany was phenomenal.  When the professional photos are ready, you’ll see exactly what I mean!

Three – Being a professional photographer takes technical skill, an artistic eye, and endless energy. As I watched Tiffany and Aaron throughout the day, they were busy practically the entire time, taking photos of every tiny detail, encouraging and prompting the models on every shot, and making absolutely certain they captured that perfect photo. Although I have long appreciated the fine work of professional photographers, seeing these two in action took my admiration to an even higher level.

More photos coming soon! I want to sincerely thank everyone who took part in this day. I loved meeting each and every one of you and look forward to the next time we meet!
