Intimate ceremony & need help remembering a plantation name

lcarey316

Hello, my fiancé and I are looking into a possible destination wedding with only immediate family (30-40 guests max). I'd love to get married on a plantation. Is it possibly to reserve these for just a ceremony. I'm sure it is but it's the rates on the websites that can be a little confusing. Any suggestions?
Also, I remember doing a search, I'm pretty sure it was south Carolina, for an old plantation. There's absolutely nothing on the property but a few ruins. Not even restrooms. Everything would've had to have been brought in but it was a beautiful property with oak and moss and looked out onto a swampy river. Does anyone know where it is I'm talking about. I cant remember the name of the place and it's driving me crazy!

It may be magnolia plantation in Charleston sc! My cousin got married there a few years back. Im getting married in upstate SC at Walnut Grove Plantation. You can reserve them for the wedding, they usually have a contract that lays out all of the rules.

You can email any venue and ask them for specific pricing information.  Don't be intimidated.  The plantation you are thinking of is definitely not Magnolia, there is a lot at Magnolia, not just some ruins.  I live in Charleston and I don't know what type of place you are talking about.  Drayton Hall doesn't have much on the site other than the main house and a gift shop, perhaps that is what you are thinking of?

It may not be in Charleston. Once I started thinking about it I remembered seeing it in either Brides magazine or Southern Weddings magazine. After some searching this town called Yemessee(?) is sounding familiar.

RUNNYMEDE PLANTATION! I finally was able to track down the magazine I originally saw it in. Thank you all for your help.
