What You Didn’t Know About Four of Charleston’s Historic Wedding Venues

Charleston is renowned for its warm hospitality and picturesque architecture. But it’s what you don’t know about some of our historic wedding venues that might surprise you. Each unique location has been lovingly restored to welcome couples celebrating their big day.

Lowndes Grove

Built in 1786, this historic waterfront estate o ers majestic views of the Ashley River, providing stunning sunsets and river breezes. Most recently, Lowndes Grove appeared in the hit Netflix series, Outer Banks, as Sarah Cameron’s family home.

William Aiken House

The William Aiken House’s vibrant yellow façade, sweeping piazzas, and 100-year-old oak trees captivate guests with 1800s allure. Finely appointed antiques create a charming interior reminiscent of the first 100+ years of its life as the Southern Railway’s headquarters. In 2004, it was the backdrop for Ali’s memorable wedding dress fitting scene in The Notebook.

American Theater

Located in the heart of upper King Street, the American Theater’s iconic marquee shines bright throughout downtown Charleston, and its art deco design pays tribute to the 1940s era in which it was built. In 2004, it provided the romantic backdrop for the beginning of Ali and Noah’s love story in The Notebook.

Parcel 32

Originally a family home built in 1837, Parcel 32 has been renovated and restored over the years, serving as a bakery, a shoe repair shop, a restaurant, and most recently, an intimate event venue. Its location, cuisine, stunning upstairs cocktail lounge, and historic design make it the perfect setting for rehearsal dinners and micro weddings.
