    i also got engaged this past christmas.  we are planning to get married this coming winter, however, if i were going to get married in the summer....i would do it at the university of charleston!  i don't know if you're familiar with the campus, but it is beautiful!  the back patio of riggleman hall has a great view of the capital building and the river, and the river bank is beautifully landscaped.  i went to college at u.c. and i saw a ceremony set up on the back patio, and the reception set up in the rotunda.  you should go onto the campus and check it out.  i heard they book up fast, so you might want to hurry.

    I never really post on here but saw you were looking for venues in Charleston and thought I would offer a suggestion.  I got married at the Clay Center in October in the Grand Lobby. I had the ceremony and reception in the same place. It turned out really great!

    I am getting married at UC this December. We are getting married in the art gallery upstairs and having the reception in the Rotunda. The cost sounds a little expensive ($1,000 for both) but includes tables, chairs, all linens, silverware, dishes, set up, tear down, and people to work it that day. You have the space available the day before for rehearsal and setting up what you want and all day the day of your wedding.

    One thing, food must be bought through UC except the cake.

    I can't wait! And yes, they book fast. We contacted them last month and got the last spot they had in December.

    yes you should start looking into places asap. i was wanting to get married july 17th & called to book the charleston women's club last march for our reception & that date was already taken, so i changed it to july 10th. so sorry you can't pick the charleston women's club for that day. but i would definitely start looking around cause most places are probably already booked up. good luck!

    you definitely have to book asap once you figure out where you want to get married

    My FI and I are getting married at the Capitol outside infront of the fountain and reception at the women's club of charleston which is beautiful! The great thing is you can pick anywhere outside or in the Capitol building

    We also checked out the Marriott which is actually very decently priced to rent but get you with food and alcohol (outrageously expensive)

    Other Places to checked out:
    The Embassy
    The Ramanda (SC)
    The Holiday Inn Charleston House
    South Charleston Country Club
    Coonskin
    The Clay Center
    The Moose Lodge
    The Civic Center
    University of Charleston
    The Palms (Huntington)
    Hawks Nest


    I have pictures of the Women's Club, Marriott Pavillion, The Ballroom at the Holiday Inn (I think), and the South Charleston Country Club
