Milepost 1808 Wedding Venue and Events was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the very beginning, the owners were incredibly responsive and attentive, going above and beyond to ensure our special day was perfect. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with beautiful ambiance both during the day and in the evenings. The gorgeous views of the countryside were the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. When we had to suddenly change venues due to a hurricane, the team at Milepost 1808 worked tirelessly to help us move everything in just one week's time. Their hard work paid off, as our wedding day was truly magical. On top of their exceptional service, Milepost 1808 is also very reasonably priced. We were even able to take our bridal portraits with one of their gorgeous horses, Autumn, and the results were breathtaking. I cannot recommend this venue enough for any couple looking to have an unforgettable wedding day.

My husband and I settled on our happy place, Highlands, NC as the perfect location to get married. We stumbled upon Flat Mountain Farm & immediately fell in love with the property. Our ceremony was small & included all of our closest friends and family members. No matter what season you decide to get married, this property will be STUNNING.

The People's Tap is in an ideal, easy to reach location that looks out on the Reedy River in the middle of downtown Greenville.

Where to begin. I will start off saying the most important – venue owners Amy and Shane Clark are truly some of the kindest people you will meet. The Venue at Rose Springs Farm was only the second venue my fiance (now husband) and I toured, but after meeting them and seeing the stunning venue I instantly knew we HAD to book it. I could just tell from that first encounter the passion, love, and joy they had for creating amazing wedding days. I went from feeling completely stressed about the task of planning a wedding to feeling like, “if I have the Clarks by my side I can totally do this.” So almost immediately we booked our date for about a year out and we also booked Amy to be our day-of-coordinator. Other than saying “yes” when Greg asked me to marry him, this was the best decision I made! Amy truly went above and beyond as a day-of-coordinator for us, and we are forever grateful. From many, many phone calls with me, either talking me out of a panic over the timeline or just brainstorming “what if” scenarios, to meetings in person where she helped me and my mom pick out the perfect décor from the HUGE stock of included items and helped me plan how the day would go. (Seriously, the décor closet is the place dreams are made of.) One of the many things I hold close to my heart and will remember forever was when I asked Amy and Shane how Greg and I could have a traditional Jewish wedding chuppah to get married under. Should I buy something? Should my dad try and build something? I showed them photos of a chuppah and I was met with “Oh! We can totally figure that out for you – we got you.” And they really did. Shane was able to construct two of the wedding arches they had together and Amy used her magic skills to make it beautiful with fabric and flowers. This is a perfect example of how the Clarks are, this is how they responded to anything at all during the planning process – with a kind and loving “we got you.” And Greg and I truly felt that. When it came to the wedding day we had no doubt in our mind the day would flow smoothly, and it did. If there was a hiccup – we didn't know about it! Amy did her day-of-coordinator duties beautifully and Shane kept the entire venue and staff running smoothly. Still to this day we do not know how he and his team manage to set up and take down chairs and move tables around so stealthy and quickly! Little things about that day that stood out in my mind that any couple thinking of booking Rose Springs Farm should know – the beautiful and spacious bridal suite had the sweetest mimosa bar set up for me and my bridesmaids. Lining up for the processional went so smoothly I didn't even realize it was happening until I heard my entrance song being played – that is how non-stressed they made me feel. The (included!) tealights were all lit on the tables when we walked into the reception space, and it was so twinkly and magical. Greg and I got a picnic basket at the end of the evening with food from our buffet and dessert in it. This made me tear up it was so sweet and made us able to have a cozy evening in the next night and relive the whole day over a meal we didn't have to worry about! When it comes to weddings, Amy and Shane REALLY, TRULY know what they are doing. I will recommend this venue to anyone I know who is getting married. I am so happy they are a part of our story and helped to get our “forever” off to a wonderful start. THANK YOU!

I heard about Heyward Manor before it was officially complete. A friend was able to give us contact information and told us that we “just had to check it out.” At that time, when I googled Heyward Manor, I couldn’t find a single thing about it; however, I chose to trust my friend and reach out to the venue because it couldn’t hurt to visit. After making that phone call and speaking with Libby Black the first time, I wanted so badly for this venue to fit my wedding vision. I knew she would be great to work with. I wasn’t really sure what to expect during our visit, but we were welcomed to Heyward Manor with open arms, and it did not take long for us to fall in love with this special place. The venue is simply beautiful, and it had everything I wanted – long farmhouse tables, outdoor and indoor ceremony options, string lights, a lovely landscape, air conditioning, plenty of accessible parking, the most beautiful bridal suite, a unique space for groomsmen, stunning chandeliers, and characteristics that complemented the boho vibe that I love so much. Of all the venues I had visited, this was the one that I could actually envision my wedding taking place at. My family and I also instantly connected with Carol and Libby, and we knew that they would take good care of us. As a Christian, I felt so comfortable working with people of great faith. They live it out and share the love of Christ at every opportunity. My family was especially drawn to that. My husband and I got married at Heyward Manor on June 20, 2020 (yes, in the midst of the pandemic), and, looking back several years later, I still feel so blessed and grateful that God provided such a wonderful place for us to celebrate the best day of our lives. I think back on that day with so much joy as it was truly a dream come true. Heyward Manor was not only the most beautiful venue, but it was so accommodating, especially during such a difficult time. As June got closer and closer that year, I didn’t know what to expect from the venue. Everybody else I knew that was getting married during that time had to change their plans in some way. But Libby reassured me that my wedding would go on as planned. She explained everything they were going to do in relation to Covid precautions, and it made me feel so at ease. My whole family is extremely grateful for Heyward Manor, and everything the team did to help my wedding become a reality. Libby and her husband came out to help us with anything we needed that day, and the Heyward Manor team will always make sure you are seeing your vision come to life. This team was truly wonderful to work with, and I enjoyed getting frequent phone calls from them, keeping me updated throughout the whole process. Our wedding day was absolutely amazing! Everyone loved the venue, and guests still talk about how beautiful it was. I really could go on and on about the things we love about Heyward Manor, but I feel that anyone who steps foot on the grounds will feel the way we felt there – at home. Heyward Manor will always hold such a special place in my heart, and I love taking every opportunity I can to go back and visit.

From the moment we started working with Emma at Castle Ladyhawke, we were impressed by their quick, efficient, and warm communication style. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful, with an authentic, charming feeling that made our wedding day feel truly special. The food was fantastic and despite complications it was a beautiful and magical day. While our initial coordinator, Emma, was great to work with over the 8 months leading up to the wedding, we were disappointed to learn upon arrival that she would not be there on the day. Her replacement, Kelsie, arrived late, did not have our updated documents, failed to communicate with the vendors that there was a space for them on the third floor, and seemed to lack the positive energy and personal responsibility we had come to expect. There were also a few small hiccups, like the arch being set up incorrectly initially. But overall, we had a wonderful, memorable day for us and our guests.

Venue considerations

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding reception in November. It was very budget friendly and had so many great features, including the freedom to choose your own catering or cater the party yourself. Carly the camp director was beyond helpful and very communicative from the start. She answered my many emails and phone calls and gave great suggestions. Franklin Hall is very spacious inside, and has a nice large deck outside and a grassy area for people to spread out. They had plenty of tables for us to use for food and seating for guests, as well as table cloths to rent for a very reasonable price. Being able to set up the day before made the day of the reception much less stressful. The amphitheater was perfect for our band. Being able to offer camper cabins for our friends to stay in was so convenient, since there aren't many lodging options very close by, or lyft or uber availability. Our guests were very impressed with the venue. I would highly recommend Camp Kiwanis for any event.

Why Is South Carolina the Perfect Wedding Destination?

South Carolina offers a wedding landscape that's truly unforgettable. 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?

Wedding venues in South Carolina typically run about $7,821, eating up roughly 17% of your total wedding budget. That's actually a better deal than the national benchmark of $6,500-$12,000 which usually claims 25% of total costs. Expect to pay between $7,000 and $8,600 for most venues across the state. Charleston commands premium prices for its historic charm while venues in the Midlands region offer more budget-friendly options without sacrificing quality.

Total wedding budget by guest count:

  • 50 guests: $19,875
  • 100 guests: $32,963
  • 150 guests: $45,268

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.

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.

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.
