How to Use Vintage Pieces in Your Outdoor Event

Thursday, May 23, 2013


Making an event unique is all about the little details.  Everything from velvet sofas to wicker chairs and mason jars to dishes can be combined to create a custom look for your event. 

With the summer months ahead, event planners take advantage of the warmth and schedule their events to take place outdoors.  Some of the most beautifully unique events are those that bring the indoors out. 

Incorporating vintage furniture warms up the outdoor space and creates a cozy feel.  Furniture also provides functionality for the space.  Outdoor spaces are beautiful, and added vintage pieces make the serenity of nature that much more comfortable.

One of the easiest ways to incorporate vintage furniture into your creative vision is with seating.  Instead of using typical white wooden chairs around your dining tables, consider using a wicker bench or aqua colored wooden chairs.  If it’s a wedding that you’re planning, consider using vintage church pews for guests to sit in during your outdoor ceremony.  Their worn edges will add a sense of charm to your special day.

Among the bigger furniture pieces are the smaller vintage details that can be used to highlight your personality.  Think about using vintage trunks to display photos in vintage frames of you and your fiancé traveling during your dating years.  Display an assortment of vases and multicolor jars with floral arrangements to add punches of color throughout the space.

The combinations are endless.  Any creative vision can be successfully achieved with the right pieces and accents.

Trunk Vintage Rentals has an expansive inventory with furniture and accessories to make your vision come alive.  Please see our virtual portfolio for a better idea of what we have.  As we continue to add to our collection, we look forward to the many weddings we will be working on this summer.  Keep checking the site for updates and design inspiration!
