Have you dreamed about a vintage sofa, but don’t know where to put it? Fawned over our farm tables, but found yourself at a loss when it comes to styling? So many brides fall in love with one of our “large details,” but then they aren’t quite sure how to finish off the look. We’re here to help! Put our styling expertise to work. Welcome to our newest series, Complete the Room! Every month, we’ll be posting our favorite techniques to complete a polished look from top to bottom with Dallas event rentals.

Today’s post covers everything you need for a fabulous sitting area. Lounge vignettes are increasingly popular at weddings and styled shoots. With our Dallas event rentals collection, you can pull an entire look together from head to toe.

Staples:

• Seating: okay, this one is obvious… but wow-worthy seating is the foundation of any wedding sitting area! We recommend at least one sofa or settee and one chair. This will provide ample but intimate seating that facilitates conversation at your special event.

• Table: a coffee table or round table in the center of the sitting area is another must-have element. Put yourselves in your guests’ shoes… what use is a comfortable sofa if your guest has nowhere to put her drink down? Pair a small table with your seating elements to ensure a functional space. Plus, a table at the center of your arrangement will visually anchor the vignette.

• Rugs: like we mentioned in our recent post, a rug can work wonders to pull your entire look together. Whether indoors or out, a rug defines the seating area and provides a cozy boundary for your intimate setting.

Details:

• Pillows: pillows are the perfect opportunity to inject personal style into your lounge vignette. Choose pillows with personality and plenty of cushion to make your sitting area feel even more inviting. Whether you rent pillows from our Dallas event rentals collection or bring your own, they will be a much-appreciated addition to your seating arrangements.

• Poufs: take the comfort a step further; use cozy floor poufs to soften the vignette and provide additional casual seating. Poufs are versatile and easy to set up. And guests always love them!

• Tabletop Décor: don’t make the mistake of an undecorated coffee table. Styling your small table is easy—just snag a gold-framed mirror and any of our small details! Bonus points for pretty florals incorporated into the look.

• Basket of goodies: last but not least, add a personalized detail with a small basket or crate of goodies. Place something inside that is completely uniquely you! Stuff the basket with cozy blankets in the winter, “to have and to hold in case you get cold,” or stock it with customized handheld fans to keep guests cool at a summer wedding. We’ve seen couples use baskets for flip-flip dancing shoes, kids’ coloring books and crayons, and more. A basket of customized favors among your Dallas event rentals will stand out as a thoughtful detail, and will go the extra mile in making your seating area feel hospitable.

There you have it! A polished look from start to finish for your lounge vignette. Our team at Beautiful Event Rentals makes it easy to pull all the details together; our Dallas event rentals collection is a one-stop experience for all your styling needs.
