  • Requires outside catering services
The Venue at Falls Park is a gorgeous and intimate location for a wedding, and the included options made for our perfect blend of convenience and DIY personalization. Our coordinator and her team were excellent on the day of our wedding, and her flower arrangements were incredible. She communicated with our vendors and ran a smooth rehearsal - having her venue coordinator services included with the venue allowed the whole family to enjoy the day. However, the communication between us leading up to the event was frustratingly full of errors and added a lot of stress. At the end of the day, we had a beautiful wedding. The venue has a wonderful floorplan and flow, and all the amenities we could have asked for. Having the bridal suite onsite made our timeline very relaxed, and the coordinator clearly has a great working relationship with other vendors in Greenville. The location downtown was great for our guests, and we were able to take photos down by the river. We are so glad we had our wedding at The Venue at Falls Park.

Homesteads Events was the perfect venue for our wedding! The natural light and exposed brick walls provided the perfect backdrop to showcase our decor choices. Hannah and the team were incredible to work with - they took our vision of incorporating Chinese American elements into the wedding and brought it to life seamlessly. They were incredibly accommodating to any requests we had and were so supportive and excited about making our day special. Hannah was a rockstar throughout the entire process, always there to answer our questions and provide reassurance. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or team to bring our wedding day to life!

The inside is spacious, immaculately clean, and beautiful. The air conditioning in this place is impressive, especially considering how hot it was at my August wedding.

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?

Charleston commands premium prices for its historic charm while venues in the Midlands region offer more budget-friendly options without sacrificing quality.

  • 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. Get clarity on exact rental periods as many venues offer limited time windows instead of full-day access which affects your timeline. 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. For waterfront venues inquire about preferred tent vendors for rain contingencies; you'll want options that complement the setting while providing proper protection.

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. Greenville venues enjoy cooler temperatures than coastal locations giving you more comfort flexibility during summer months. June leads venue inquiry timing despite potential heat challenges because coastal venues benefit from refreshing sea breezes that inland locations can't match. Smart couples look for venues with climate-controlled backup options; an essential feature given South Carolina's sometimes unpredictable summer weather patterns that can shift from perfect to problematic quickly.
