The beach house was an absolutely amazing place to have our wedding. Kim and Margaret went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I were taken care of both before our wedding and the day of.

Parent of the bride—we leased entire rooftop & everything was excellent, & staff was easy to work with. There were issues with the QR scans to retrieve vehicles from valet parking. Additionally, the hotel staff used all elevators to transport chairs, DJ equipment, etc. It appeared there was not an elevator specifically for services of the hotel. Overall the wedding & rehearsal dinner was great, & wedding was beautiful.

Why Is South Carolina the Perfect Wedding Destination?

You'll find historic Charleston mansions with breathtaking 18th-century architecture, oak-lined plantation entrances that create dramatic photo opportunities, and Lowcountry waterfront settings showcasing spectacular marsh views. Looking for variety? The state delivers everything from coastal properties with sweeping Atlantic Ocean panoramas to secluded barrier island venues that capture South Carolina's natural beauty at its finest. June tops the popularity charts for venue inquiries despite the summer heat; those coastal sea breezes make all the difference.

What's the Average Cost of a Wedding Venue in South Carolina?

What Questions Should You Ask Before Booking a South Carolina Venue?

Ask about exclusive catering requirements since historic venues often limit kitchen facilities for preservation reasons. Get clarity on exact rental periods as many venues offer limited time windows instead of full-day access which affects your timeline. Understand capacity limitations particularly for historic properties with preservation restrictions that might impact your guest list. Request specifics on accessibility features beyond basic ADA compliance to ensure all guests feel welcome. For waterfront venues inquire about preferred tent vendors for rain contingencies; you'll want options that complement the setting while providing proper protection.

How Do Seasonal Considerations Affect South Carolina Venue Selection?

Charleston faces hurricane risk from June through November with August bringing peak humidity that can challenge outdoor events. Greenville venues enjoy cooler temperatures than coastal locations giving you more comfort flexibility during summer months. June leads venue inquiry timing despite potential heat challenges because coastal venues benefit from refreshing sea breezes that inland locations can't match. Smart couples look for venues with climate-controlled backup options; an essential feature given South Carolina's sometimes unpredictable summer weather patterns that can shift from perfect to problematic quickly.
