    Perfect little southern wedding

    What better place to celebrate an intimate family wedding than on the Carolina Girl! Camille helped us get all the details just right, and TJ, Kayla and the whole crew were so gracious and professional. Enjoyed lunch in the air conditioned lounge and danced up top in the breezes while the scenery slipped by. It's just so Charleston!

    Best night ever!

    Carolina Girl was a fantastic venue for our Welcome Party. Camille, Kayla, and the whole crew on board were super helpful and quick responders in the entire planning process. So attentive, the night of leaving us with a very smooth night. They have all the logistics ironed out and have the night down to a science. All night, and the next day at our ceremony, I had all our guests saying how great a party it was! Would highly recommend, especially if you will have lots of out-of-town guests like us. Such a unique Charleston experience.

From the crew on the boat, to the planning and catering management, they are wonderful. Every one of our clients rave about each aspect of their wedding, rehearsal dinner or corporate event. Keepsakes Florist highly recommends this venue for your event.
