Welcome to Behind the Table: Your Inside Pass to TableMade

Hi Friend,

Hey there, fabulous event enthusiasts and wedding wonder-makers! Welcome to Behind the Table, your ultimate backstage pass to all things chic, stylish, and utterly breathtaking in the world of event and wedding design. If you’re new here, let me just say: You’re in for a treat. And if you’ve been following our journey with TableMade, you know we’re all about making your events not just memorable but downright unforgettable. So grab your coffee—or a glass of bubbly if you're feeling fancy—and settle in for a sneak peek behind the curtains of one of Atlanta’s most sought-after event rental companies.

The Heartbeat of TableMade: Where Passion Meets Precision

Let's start with the heartbeat of it all: TableMade. We’re not just in the business of providing event tableware; we’re in the business of creating experiences. Our curated collections are designed to transform any event—whether it's an intimate wedding or a corporate gala—into a visual feast. And trust me, this isn’t your average rental company. We’re talking about hand-picked pieces that bring a level of style and sophistication that can only be described as swoon-worthy. Think of us as your style consultants but for tablescapes.
Running a small business like TableMade isn’t just about the hustle—though there’s plenty of that. It’s about passion, creativity, and a relentless commitment to quality. From the moment we opened our doors, our mission has been to bring a fresh, modern perspective to the world of event rentals. And yes, that means countless late nights, an unbreakable bond with our coffee machines, and a deep dive into what makes every single item in our inventory something special.

Behind the Scenes: The Art and Craft of Curating Perfection

What does it take to build and keep our small business running? Well, let’s just say it’s not all champagne toasts and perfectly set tables (though that’s definitely a perk). Behind the scenes, it’s a whirlwind of selecting the perfect pieces, managing logistics, and ensuring that every item arrives at your event in pristine condition. It’s also about listening to what our clients need—sometimes before they even know it themselves.
Our team is constantly on the lookout for the latest trends in event and wedding design. We scour the pages of Vogue, Architectural Digest, and BRIDES, and keep an eye on every runway at NYFW Bridal Week to bring you the freshest ideas and the most innovative designs. But we don’t just stop at what’s trending; we’re all about setting trends too. With our ever-expanding collection, you can expect nothing less than the latest in luxe design.

Setting the Trends: Event and Wedding Design

You’ll LoveLet’s talk about what’s hot right now in the world of event design. Modern minimalism is having a moment, and we are here for it. Think sleek, monochromatic palettes with pops of bold color. We’re also seeing a resurgence of vintage glamour—gold accents, crystal glassware, and rich, opulent tones that make you feel like you’ve stepped into The Great Gatsby, but with a 2024 twist. And of course, sustainability is no longer a trend; it’s a standard. From eco-friendly materials to reusable decor, green is the new black.
Weddings are also seeing a shift towards the intimate and personal. Couples are moving away from traditional setups and opting for designs that reflect their unique love stories. Whether it's a moody, candlelit affair or a bright and airy garden party, the key is customization. And that’s where we come in. At TableMade, we work closely with couples to create tablescapes that not only match their vision but elevate it.

Industry Insights: Conversations with Event and Design Leaders

But it’s not just about what we think is fabulous—we’re bringing in the big guns. Behind the Table will feature interviews with industry leaders, from top event planners to the creative geniuses behind the designs you love. Ever wonder what it takes to plan a celebrity wedding? Or how to pull off a corporate event that people will be talking about for years? We’re here to spill the tea.
Expect candid conversations where we dig into the nitty-gritty of event planning, design challenges, and what it takes to stay ahead of the curve. These aren’t your average Q&As; we’re diving deep to bring you insights that are as useful as they are inspiring. Whether you’re a fellow event professional or just someone who loves a well-set table, these interviews will give you a fresh perspective on the art of entertaining.

Sneak Peeks: What’s Next for TableMade

And now, for the part you've been waiting for: the sneak peeks. Here at TableMade, we’re always on the hunt for the next big thing. Whether it’s a new collection of artisanal flatware or an exclusive line of custom linens, you’ll hear about it first on Behind the Table. Consider this your VIP pass to what’s new, what’s next, and what’s going to make your next event the talk of the town.
We’re also excited to share some behind-the-scenes looks at how these collections come together. From the initial concept sketches to the final product, we’ll be giving you an inside look at our creative process. Trust us, you won’t want to miss this.

The TableMade Journey: Building and Sustaining a Dream

Finally, let's not forget what it takes to keep TableMade running smoothly. It’s a delicate dance of creativity and business acumen, of passion and pragmatism. There are challenges, of course—supply chain issues, seasonal slumps, and the occasional logistical nightmare. But at the end of the day, it’s all worth it. Because for us, there’s nothing quite like seeing the look on a client’s face when they walk into a room that’s been transformed by our work.
And that’s what keeps us going: the joy of creating something beautiful, of being a part of life’s most important moments. Whether you’re planning a wedding, a corporate event, or a small gathering of friends, we’re here to help you make it extraordinary.

So, welcome to Behind the Table. We’re thrilled to have you on this journey with us. Get ready for a deep dive into the world of event design, where creativity knows no bounds and every detail matters. We can’t wait to share it all with you.

With Style,
