Imagine you step into all the low country has to offer in one perfect venue. The breeze flows off the Ashley River; the spanish moss hangs from Charleston’s signature oak trees, swaying in the wind.
There is a newly renovated building situated by the river- The perfect place for you and your guests to have dinner after you have come from cocktail hour on the stone patio. You are at none other than the Carriage House at Magnolia Plantation and Gardens.
Picture saying ‘I do’ in front of a large Oak tree in a field of green or under the Spanish moss, overlooking the river. The Carriage House is a one-of-a-kind destination wedding in South Carolina; you’ve just found your perfect match.
