Farm + Industrial Tables, Industrial, Modern, Published, Real Wedding, Something Vintage Rentals
We are excited to unveil Nicole and Brian’s industrial glam Long View Gallery wedding in Washington DC. We’ve been dying to share this celebration that was recently published on Style Me Pretty! You know, we are obsessed with anything industrial, so we were particularly pumped to be a part of this wedding at one of our favorite wedding venues in DC! We are huge fans of how the couple paired their blush and gold color pallet with the contrast of the industrial reclaimed wood, steel, concrete, and geometric accents. We say yes to more industrial glam weddings!
We love how they used Petworth Pub Height Farm Tables and Industrial bar stools to mix up seating heights with our Classic Farm tables. Mixed height seating is one of our favorite looks for receptions and think this will be a big trend for weddings in 2017.
Check out this incredible hanging greenery installation with the glow of the candles below. And those industrial chairs—can we please get those for our inventory??! Please!
Congrats again to Nicole and Brian and thank you to the other awesome wedding vendors involved in this celebration at Long View!

We are super excited to introduce our new Natural Farm Tables! For some time now, we’ve been trying to figure out how we can adequately show on our website the amazing texture of our reclaimed wood farm tables. Well, we figured why not just seal them and let their natural beauty, texture, and dimension show through??! So that’s what we did and…BOOOM…our Natural Farm Tables were born! These babies are handmade from century old barn wood reclaimed from barns in Maryland and Pennsylvania. We decided to dress them up and give them some beautiful turned legs as well! How you doin?
Look at that TEXTURE! Daaaaammmn. And yes, they have a matte sealer on them preserving their details from damage (and wine).
Right now, we have a limited number of the Natural Farm Tables, but plan to have more this spring for weddings and events in Maryland, Virginia, and DC. If you need a certain number for an event, please let us know as soon as possible so we can ensure we make a sufficient number. We can’t wait to see them shine this spring! And how awesome do they look with our new cross back chairs?!
These natural farm tables seat 8-10 guests and are 96″ x 42″.

It’s that time of year again – our annual Virtual Warehouse Sale is in full swing! Believe it or not, we still have several of our gorgeous, reclaimed wood tables up for grabs! These pieces are true (stylish) workhorses and could easily find a home in your casual kitchen, paired with upholstered chairs for a rustic-glam dining set up, or – if you have the space – a deluxe #ladyboss office desk! Each table is meticulously crafted from reclaimed barn wood, which means in addition to being a piece of history, your table is completely unique! Though these specific tables are gently loved, here at SVRentals we like to think of them as having character. We currently have a thin top priced at $599 and a 2″ top at $899 – contact us today to get yours while you can!
