Awarded Best of Zola
Not only did I not have to really decorate the space because it's SO gorgeous, my guests cannot stop commenting on the magical atmosphere of the ceremony space. It's nestled below a gorgeous 1800's house, along a creek, and is so green and lush in the spring and summer. I bet fall weddings would be stunning too! We got married May 3rd. The owners are the sweetest and so wonderful to work with. I want to relive this day again and again!

Separk Mansion is a wedding venue located in Gastonia, North Carolina that is just 20 minutes from Charlotte. This renovated mansion is designed with beautiful weddings in mind and will give you an elegant backdrop that will create a celebration that is full of everlasting memories. Separk Mansion is ideal for both indoor and outdoor weddings. The first floor ballroom retains old vintage hardwood floors and has a ceiling that shimmers with crystal chandeliers. At the front there is a large staircase as well as large front doors that lead to an expansive limestone veranda that can be used for a cocktail hour. This impressive estate was built in 1919 by textile mogul Joseph Separk. He lived in the mansion with his wife and son during the 1920s. In 2012 it underwent complete renovation and is currently one of the most popular locations for ceremonies and receptions. The mansion is part of the York Chester Historic District and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Working with Separk was super easy from start to finish. We had Hannah as our wedding coordinator and she did a great job with creating and sticking to the timeline. She also did great at setting up our decor items and some flowers we brought to the venue. She was very communicative with us and our bridal party/family so that everyone knew what was expected from them for the ceremony. Overall we had a great experience with Separk and had the most perfect wedding thanks to them!

Euphoriia Garden 

5.0

Concord, NC
  • Up to 25 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $799

Located in Historic Downtown Concord, Euphoriia Garden is a unique, intimate setting that allows you to create the moment that you have been waiting for all your life. Our modern, yet soft decor creates a beautiful space to exchange your nuptials. The beautifully curated space combined with their all-inclusive wedding packages, take care of everything, allowing you to focus on the joy of your special day. Say "I do" without breaking the bank or losing your mind over logistics at Euphoriia Garden.

The team delivered our Vision 100%. We had a lot of DIY items stored in labeled boxes and we went over everything and provided a description of what the tables would look like etc and the day off I didn’t have to do anything but focus on being the bride and getting pretty. The energy of everyone on the team was positive and extremely accommodating!! If I didn’t have the answer for where things should go the response was always “don’t worry, we will figure it out!” I would hire them again for my next event! They were also able to provide our photo booth service (last minute bc we decided on it late in the game) and they brought personalized props to fit our theme and personalities. All of my wedding guests complimented them and spoke highly of how organized they were. I made it clear I wanted to start on time (not 1 minute earlier or later) and Demetra did JUST THAT!! I would HIGHLY recommend them! Prior to the wedding day we met at the venue to discuss details and talk through logistics. This made me and my husband feel comfortable and allowed the planners to see everything that needed to be executed. They were running around the entire night so that my bridal party and guests didn’t have to lift a finger and everyone knew where to go and what to do. Thank you again for an amazing experience!!

Behind the events barn you will find a cocktail patio with cafe lights and cocktail tables under the canopy of the romantic forest.

Located between the metros of Greenville, SC, Columbia, SC and Augusta, GA and within close proximity to Lake Greenwood, Greenwood, Clinton and Laurens, make this charming venue the place for an unforgettable wedding day.

We got married here in April 2024 and it was so beautiful. When our plans to wed in a National park near Columbia SC fell through due to torrential rain forecast, we stumbled across Chateau Amelia. We couldn't have had a more lucky turn of events, because this place offered exactly what we needed for our small group. I had always wanted to get married in a forest setting and this place delivered! The historic house is so huge and well appointed and the barn is so modern and lovely. You can tell everything is well maintained and it offered so many great moments for photography. We were able to have all our vendors come and go and everything turned out just great. If you are considering Chateau Amelia, run do not walk because this will be a popular venue in the months and years to come.

Halls Signature Events 

5.0

Charleston, SC
  • Up to 125 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $3,000

Halls Signature Events is our private dining and event venue for the award-winning restaurant Halls Chophouse, The Charleston Steakhouse. Whether your event is held in our lovely historic venue at 5 Faber Street in downtown Charleston, or we bring our private chef services to your home or offsite event, you and your guests will be treated to Halls' renowned service and the quality you have come to expect from our restaurants. This refurbished historic warehouse features a cool brick façade, inset with multiple windows and large, natural wood doors. Inside, you’ll find more exposed brick, arched doorways, a fully-equipped marble bar, commercial kitchen, and a mezzanine level set with plush lounge furniture. Get as creative as you like with this eclectic space—your rental agreement doesn’t require you to use specified vendors, so you're free to design your own décor, flowers, and room layouts, and use the facility in whatever way suits your vision.

Not only is this event space incredibly gorgeous but the event director, Emily Schultz, was the most helpful and professional that lead to a stress-free wedding experience. The space contains a large entry, spacious bar, beautiful main room, and a lounge and loft. From the moment you walk in you are greeted with brick, dark woods, green, and gold in a romantic and elegant way. There's tile and wood floors with decorated walls that made this area so much more appealing than an empty banquet hall. Emily communicated with me through email and phone quickly, often, and professionally. She was the biggest help to this out of town bride! Her and her team put on an amazing event down to personalized menus and beyond excellent service from the bartenders to the many servers. Our guests also told us that the filet they had was the best they ever had! We had 60 guests and had plenty of room for a dance floor, dj, and photobooth area. We did our cocktail hour and reception here. I could not recommend Halls enough!

Hartley House Event Venue 

5.0

Batesburg, SC
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $2,400

The Hartley House (also known as the Bond-Bates-Hartley House) located in Batesburg-Leesville, South Carolina was built circa 1790 for John Pearson Bond. The house later came into possession of John Bates, husband of John Pearson Bond’s great niece and a member of the family that the town of Batesburg was named for. There are many local legends surrounding this house and it’s friendly visitors. According to local tradition, the Bond-Bates-Hartley House served as a stagecoach stop and post office, prior to the founding of the town of Batesburg. Architecturally the house is a typical upcountry farmhouse, with a portico adapted from the Greek Revival style.

Crystal with The Hartley House is hands down one of the best vendors I’ve worked with in the greater Columbia wedding industry. Her communication is excellent, she is flexible, and extremely helpful with problem-solving before and on wedding day. She also genuinely cares about her brides, and you can tell she is so passionate about her job and just being a part of the couple’s wedding journey. Hartley House is a stunning venue that is incredibly affordable. From a wedding coordinating perspective, it is such a convenient and logistically simple venue to produce events. I HIGHLY recommend Hartley House.

The Cotton Loft 

5.0

Clinton, SC
  • Up to 700 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor

A group of professional caterers and hospitality employees envisioned an event space like no other. A space vast enough to hold large events without compromising the ambiance and charm of a quaint family gathering. A place rich in history with significant ties to our communities. We were lead to an aging, almost forgotten piece of our past. The old Cotton Depot in Clinton SC quietly sat on the edge of downtown. The building spoke to us, 17,000 square feet of handmade brick each telling a story, 11ft ceilings with exposed beams, arched windows and wide planked floors. We immediately began designing the space. Through our catering experience we knew the need for easy access, a good flow and having conveniently located facilities. We also knew the importance of having multifunctioning spaces that can be dressed up or down to make each event uniquely yours. From the most elegant affair to down home country charm, Cotton Loft is merely a canvas. The picture we paint is yours.

My husband and I got married at The Cotton Loft in June 2023 and it was an absolute dream! Star was super accommodating with our limited schedules (we planned our wedding from out-of-state) and did everything she could to make it the perfect day! Star also provided the catering & bar services for our day and our guests raved about the food, the space- Everything was perfect. If you’re thinking about getting married at The Cotton Loft, it’s 100% worth it!
