Modern Revival was created to provide locals with more affordable, "MODERN" day event rental options. Owner Vanessa Case says, "Southerners love any reason to host a party, especially in Mississippi where spring and summer are booked with showers, weddings, and celebrations galore. After attending and being a part of many social events over the years, I realized people were looking for a larger variety when it came to designing and decorating their events. Traditional is great for some people, but for people like myself who love originality and believe that every event should be a reflection of its maker, I felt our event industry could benefit from a good ole southern 'REVIVAL.' What a better time than now? When everything vintage is in, retro is alive, modern is sleek, and rustic equals true beauty!"
Modern Revival is the ultimate resource for modern, vintage and rustic furniture and accessories, with products ranging from beautiful antique sofas to chandeliers and modern lounge furniture. Modern Revival also features incredibly beautiful pieces for smaller parties, such as baby showers and birthday parties! Vanessa smiles, "We have an amazing website, http://www.modernrevivalrentals.com, that gives our clients access to browse all of our pieces from the comfort of their home! We also have a super convenient Wishlist feature on our website where our clients can look through all of our inventory, pick out what they love, create and submit a Wishlist, and in return get a quote and picture collage of their selection emailed back to them. We created this feature to help with the planning process and to allow our customers to see everything they're interested in renting together as a whole. Their Wishlist ultimately becomes a great planning guide helping them to stay organized and on budget and gives me a better idea of what their overall event style is."
Vanessa is expecting a sweet baby boy, and Modern Revival added the perfect accessories to her recent baby shower. We are so excited to share more of the lovely event with you today through the eyes of her dear friend, Elisa Oswalt!
{Event Site} Northbay Clubhouse in Madison, Mississippi
{Inspiration location} "Northbay Clubhouse - It was centrally located for friends and family and right down the street from where she lives so it was convenient for transporting gifts and allowed guests to see Baby Case's nursery progress."
{Theme} "We centered the shower around a 'Babies Make Life Sweeter' theme because it's sooo true and because Vanessa's main cravings throughout her pregnancy have been desserts and sweets - pies, cakes, candy, ANYTHING and EVERYTHING sweet!"
{Inspiration Color Scheme} "We used a variety of fun hues of blues, pops of yellow, and pastels for the shower by incorporating them in the flower arrangements, Modern Revival's vintage mix and match dishes, and other Modern Revival decorative rental pieces. We wanted to keep the colors sweet but not your traditional gender specific. Antlers here and there added the perfect little masculine touch and a eclectic feel to the decor. Just the best way to represent Vanessa's personality and to celebrate her sweet baby boy!"
{Favorite Event Detail} "My personal favorite detail was the vintage mix and matched tea cups, saucers, and plates that the guests used to enjoy their dessert themed menu. We styled the collection on Modern Revival's 'Catherine' Antique 3-Tiered Table- It was such a beautiful Southern and fun touch!"
{Favorite Part of Planning} "Collaborating shower details with all of Vanessa's shower hosts/closest friends. We always love getting together, especially when it's to celebrate one of our best friends! Everyone works so well with each other which helped keep the baby shower atmosphere very laid back and enjoyable for everybody!"
{Favorite picture} "My personal favorite picture is of Vanessa opening her gifts with her long time friend Melanie Reed - they are both laughing and smiling so big which is the perfect representation of their friendship. I love that someone was able to capture it! I also loved the dessert table pictures because everything looks so yum and the flower arrangement was gorgeous!"
{Floral Design} "Jan Kilpatrick assisted by Danny Fulton- Vanessa wanted a 'Wild Flower/Boho” look so her mom created gorgeous arrangements with novelty flowers like- Assorted Anemones, Craspedia, Agapanthus, Dahlias, Eucalyptus, Queen Anne's Lace, Larkspur, Delphinium, Scabiosa, Ranunculus, Cornflower, Iris, Forsythia, and Peonies.
