Magical, Stunning and Just Perfect!
Chateau Amelia is a boutique-style hidden gem in South Carolina full of that good-ole Southern charm! First off, the property is beautifully maintained and full of details that just exude luxury. It's just so romantic. Not only is it beautiful, but it was also affordable. In the 2,XXX range for the day rental that we opted for. Angela and her team go above and beyond to make everything seamless. Amazing communication that was always clear and full of warmth. Cannot imagine a more perfect place to get married!

From the moment we stepped foot in Chateau Amelia, we felt welcomed by the cheerful and friendly staff. They went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was elegant, timeless, and truly stunning. The beautiful decor and spaces created the perfect backdrop for our special celebration, and the team was incredibly accommodating throughout the entire planning process. We were treated like VIPs, with a white glove experience that felt truly boutique. Chateau Amelia's affordable pricing and attention to detail made it the ideal venue for our dream wedding. We are so grateful to the Chateau Amelia team for helping make our day so magical and unforgettable.
A Fairytale Wedding At Chateau Amelia!
We found Chateau Amelia while searching for intimate venues on zola, and from the first glance, we were in love. The photos were beautiful, but nothing compares to experiencing it in person! It's truly a hidden gem that possibly people are missing out on. It is elegant, stunning and full of that Southern charm to die for. We were planning a smaller wedding (around 75 guests) and this venue was perfect. It felt cozy yet spacious, and we loved that we could stay overnight since they have on site lodging. We were able to turn our celebration into a full weekend experience with our closest family and friends. Working with the team at Chateau Amelia was so easy. They were responsive, flexible and made us feel taken care of throughout the entire process. We did hire their in-house coordinating team and they took care of creating our wedding day timeline down to every last minute and second. They were creative and helpful at giving us ideas to maximize our time in their venue. If you are considering this venue, you have to book a tour to see it in person for yourself. You'll fall in love just like we did. We had the wedding of our dreams and sure you would too.

We cannot recommend this venue highly enough - you will definitely not regret booking Chateau Amelia for your event!
