We are thrilled to share this brilliantly styled shoot organized by @evermoreeventsco and photographed by @raemarshall. Every detail was carefully curated with the lush florals arranged by @thistleandmoonnc, pops of citrus fruits, vintage place settings, and candles. We are in awe of this absolutely stunning design and love the mixed vibrance of orange and pink.
Our contributions included the place settings with vintage gold and white plates, gold flatware, orange water goblets pink champagne coupes, and pink glass salad plates. We also provided the beautiful pink table linen and napkins.
Our blog and social media have gone dark this past month, which we didn’t intend to happen. Where have we been? We’ve been recovering from a total hip replacement. Instead of catching up on emails and correspondence, and completing small projects, we needed time to heal. This meant doing much of nothing but icing muscles, resting, and going to physical therapy. Thankfully, with the help of friends, family, and helper Keven, our business kept on track.
Now it’s time to get back into the groove of sharing! Today’s post is a continuation of Gab and Tucker’s vibrant wedding at the Carolina Grove but this time we are sharing our own photos. Because the clients wanted us to set the tables, we were able to see the final result and snap a few of the many cool place settings and details. Mixed vintage plates, water and wine goblets, flatware, and napkins – every table was vibrant and fun!
As we mixed the vintage plate collections for each table, it was the perfect opportunity to include some of our commemorative plates featuring places and people. How fun are these, especially the Morehead Planetarium plate?
Along with vintage colored water and wine goblets, Gab and Tucker wanted to offer a variety of colored coupes for champagne and tumblers for mixed drinks. Since dessert was a frozen dish, our vintage berry dishes fit the menu perfectly.
We hope our photos show how much we enjoyed providing these vintage treasures for Gab and Tucker’s wedding. Many folks will fondly remember this celebration, including us!
Oh my goodness! Gab and Tucker’s wedding was a fabulous gala affair! These two professional planners had a colorful, personal vision for their celebration and the final vibrant result was absolutely magnificent!
We first met with Gab and Tucker in January to begin planning for our part in their wedding day. When they described their eclectic, radical ideas with us, we almost did a happy dance – mixing every possible element on the reception tables has always been a fantasy and now it was going to be realized.
As you can see, they chose pieces from every collection – vintage plates, water and wine goblets, flatware, napkins, dessert bowls, tumblers, and champagne coupes. Getting these pieces together took us over a week and we were very excited to set the tables.
The couple grew their flowers and prepared the many wine bottles. Note the shelves of vases below – guests were asked to chose their bouquet, take it to their table, and then take it home. Such a wonderful touch!
Gab and Tucker, it was an absolute pleasure working with you. Your wacky, crazy idea was stunning and we absolutely loved it! May every day be as loving and fun as your wedding day.
Stop deliberating and book Southern Vintage Table now! We loved our experience working with Southern Vintage Table for our place-settings and glassware for our wedding. Shelly’s collection of vintage dishes, napkins, glassware and more is unmatched and stunning. My husband and I are global event producers and we give top marks and our highest professional recommendation to Southern Vintage Table. Stop deliberating and book Southern Vintage Table now!
Today we travel to Union Valley Farm & Vineyard located in Whiteville, NC to delight in the heavenly wedding of Dallas and Eddie. Courtesy of Jenna Corley Photography, you will see that every detail down to the perfect row of waterfall-folded napkins was thoughtfully designed with the help of planner, Peyton J Events. Our vintage blue and white china, silver-plated flatware, and clear goblets look flawless and we can only imagine how their guests must have felt as they entered the room.
On a side note, when Dallas and Eddie visited us at the studio, they decided that they wanted the tablescape design to be more intentional than random. To help with the setting of the plates, we packed the crates two-by-two with the same pattern so the plate across the table would be the same.
Bravo, Dallas and Eddie! Your impeccable, fun wedding day will be fondly remembered by your family and friends. Best wishes for an amazing journey together!
Theirs was our first wedding of 2023 and, seeing Nicole and Mike’s photos, courtesy of Booth Creative, brings us such fond memories. These two, perfectly matched, celebrated their wedding day in grand fashion at the Wrightsville Manor in Wilmington.
Our vintage blue and white china was chosen by the couple to don their reception tables. Along with the blue napkins and stunning florals by Design Perfection, their final look was quietly majestic.
Congratulations, Nicole and Mike! Best wishes for a wondrous life together!
One thing is certain – vintage has many flavors, colors, and designs and our clients prove this time and time again. Today we are showcasing some of the most recent designs by our clients.
Recently, we consulted with photographer Rae Marshall about her upcoming photo shoot at the Matthews and we both loved the final result. The shoot, also designed by Sophie Johnson, will celebrate the LGBTQ+ community as well as include some of the many inclusive vendors. Add the florals and this will be a feast for the eyes!
Both Chelsea and Jessie love color, vintage, and mismatched china. The spring-colored vintage goblets accompanied by a mix of vintage plates will wow their friends next spring at Windy Hill Farm.
Purple, pink, and amber are adorning Lisa and David’s reception tables with vintage goblets and plates that coordinate with these colors. The vintage orange goblets they are holding are for their sweetheart table. We always enjoy seeing our wedding planning friends, and Stephanie of Beauty and the Budget introduced us and helped them make their selections.
Baby showers are fun to plan and attend! Since the parents are farmers, this “cabbage patch” theme promises to honor their family as well as provide many memorable, adorable moments.
Did you know that we also provide centerpieces and speciality items? Hayli and Karel wanted color! They used our vintage colored goblets and glass dessert serving pieces that perfectly expressed who they are. Cori and Nolan came to us for their centerpieces that will include dried floral arrangements we will create. Finally, our most recent visitor wanted vintage vases for her reception restaurant tables as well as dessert serving pieces for the 800 cookies on their wedding cookie table!
Whether it’s color, patterns, plates, centerpieces, or a combination of everything, we love providing our services and vintage wares to our clients. One thing is certain – it’s loads of fun, too!
Tea for two and two in love – Aoi and Travis – were married earlier this year in Clemmons, NC at the historic Providence Manor House. Featured in their lovely wedding was a traditional tea ceremony. Two teas, representing both families, were poured into a small teacup from which both sipped. This gesture “symbolize(s) harmony, purity and respect” as the couple embrace and join their new families. We love this tradition! (Tree Trunk)
Historic venues, such as Providence Manor, are a beautiful complement to our vintage collections. As you see in these romantic photographs courtesy of Amanda Sutton Photography, the couple selected our vintage place settings, including floral plates, gold-plated flatware, and colored goblets, for their reception tables. The personally designed centerpieces featured our handcrafted dried bottled bouquets, candleholders, and vintage pink votive holder. The vintage dresser mirrors and brass frames with the table numbers completed their vintage-inspired design.
Best wishes to you two, Aoi and Travis! We truly enjoyed meeting you and your family and wish you everything wonderful in your new lives together.
The day was perfect – a gorgeous day at a working farm in rural Orange County, a host of family and friends, an amazing red barn, and two exceptional women in love. Jess and Dean, with the guidance of their planner, Beauty and the Budget, had every detail carefully planned.
We provided our lovely vintage pink and clear goblets, vintage china featuring gold rims, blue and white plates, silver-plate flatware, and bread baskets. The dessert table also featured brightly colored glass vintage cake plates and dessert plates.
Congratulations, Dean and Jess! We wish you the best of everything and loved being part of your celebration!

Vintage colored glassware lit up with twinkle lights creates a rainbow of beauty. Not quite sure if they would make any difference with the shelves filled with plates and teacups, Taylor strung the lights across the back walls. Well, you can see for yourself how magical and enchanting everything appears.
This week we were working on an upcoming wedding, and after stacking the tall vintage coupes in wired racks and putting them out of the way in the back of the studio, we were struck by their beauty against the twinkle lights tucked in the shelving.
On the shelf or in front, these lights emanate the irresistible, extraordinary beauty of everything vintage.
Although we could not personally attend, Brenda, owner of the Carriage House of Chapel Hill, visited our studio and we created several designs for the honored visitors. Of course, we adore these looks and hope the visitors thought so as well!
Thanks, Brenda, for the invitation to be a part of your venue showcase! Looking forward to returning to your gorgeous space!
