Located in the heart of downtown Charleston, SC, Parcel 32 is a historic venue ideal for weddings, rehearsal dinners, bridal brunches, after parties, and more. Situated on Upper King Street, it's walking distance to renowned hotels, fine dining, shopping, historic sites, and cultural experiences.
Parcel 32 brings together the best of the old and the new. Housed in an 1837 Charleston single home, it was thoughtfully renovated to breathe new life into the building, resulting in an enchanting setting matching the vibrancy of Upper King Street.
Each space was meticulously designed to create a modern twist on a historic backdrop, beginning with the courtyard entrance. Guests are immediately drawn to the ornate, custom-designed tile floor and lush plant wall. Once inside, you are welcomed into the Living Room, a lounge area with comfortable seating, adjoining an extensive wine wall.
A few steps away, the main Dining Room is adorned with sleek, gold accents and emerald green tufted furniture. An expanded mirror wall reflects the beauty of the space, and the wall-to-wall window opens up to the perfect view of King Street.
On the other side of the first floor, the spacious main bar area provides the perfect setting for pre-dinner drinks, welcome parties, and after parties.
Upstairs, you will find The Parlour, a stunning cocktail lounge that opens onto a piazza overlooking King Street. From the vaulted ceiling and floral wall to the modernized Victorian-era furniture, The Parlour provides a warm, soft atmosphere that draws you in.

We had the most incredible experience working with Patrick Properties Hospitality Group for our wedding weekend, and we can't thank them enough. We had our rehearsal dinner/welcome party at Parcel 32 and our reception at Lowndes Grove, and both venues were absolutely breathtaking.
From the very beginning, Kelly, our event manager, went above and beyond to ensure everything was taken care of just as we envisioned. She worked seamlessly with our planner and vendors, making sure all the details were executed perfectly. Kelly truly made our wedding weekend something we will cherish forever, and her dedication and support were unmatched.
Both venues were stunning and full of character. Parcel 32 provided the perfect setting for our welcome party, with its charming ambiance and inviting atmosphere. Lowndes Grove, with its historical elegance and picturesque outdoor space, was the dream venue for our reception.
And the food – wow! The culinary team at PPHG is on another level. Every dish from both nights was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. We were also so impressed that they worked with us to create macaroons for our reception that matched our wedding colors – it’s those little personal touches that really made everything feel extra special.
We highly recommend Patrick Properties Hospitality Group, both Parcel 32 and Lowndes Grove, for any couple looking for amazing venues and exceptional service. A huge thank you to Kelly for everything she did to make our wedding festivities absolutely perfect. You made our dream wedding a reality, and we will be forever grateful!

We hosted our wedding at Parcel 32 last summer. Rachel made the planning process and day-of stress free, which we didn’t expect for a destination wedding. Every question we asked along the way, we received a comprehensive answer — where are the oysters sourced? Can we get this entree with that side dish? Etc. On our last call, I sent Rachel an agenda of about 30 bullet points the day before—she was prepared with answers and solutions, thinking through every detail. Eight months later and our guests are still raving the experience. We were all blown away by the food, drinks, and service. They essentially served 40 people each course simultaneously. The kitchen and staff were so well prepared and thoughtful. Rachel brought me a sampler of the appetizers after the cocktail reception, which was so sweet since I hadn’t eaten a thing up until then. Simply an incredible night, one of the best nights of our lives! We are beyond grateful to Rachel and Parcel 32. We cannot recommend this venue enough!

Nadia and Rachel were an absolute dream to work with! Even with us living 6 hours from Charleston, they answered all of our questions in a timely manner and had great suggestions for decor, timeline, etc. We did our wedding ceremony and reception at Parcel 32 and they truly went above and beyond. All of the staff were friendly and attentive. We had a sit down dinner and the timeline flowed seamlessly. The venue is stunning- all of our guests are still talking about how beautiful Parcel 32 is!

We had our wedding this past December at Parcel 32, and it was absolutely perfect! The venue was exactly what we were looking for with a small wedding of around 55 people. The charming, quaint vibe of the old building added so much character to our big day, and the King Street location made it super easy for our guests to get to. Most of our guests came from out of town so they were able to stay at different hotels/airbnbs around King street making it easy for them to either walk or uber/lyft to the venue. Rachel and Erin were amazing—so helpful and organized throughout the entire planning process, which made everything stress-free.
The food was delicious, and the espresso martini tower was such a fun and unique touch—our guests seemed to love it! Highly recommend Parcel 32 for anyone looking for a beautiful and quintessential Charleston venue!

Couldn’t recommend this venue and everyone working there enough! Rachel and Jordyn are so lovely to work with and they far exceeded our expectations for our big day. From the beginning they were amazing communicators and always reply in a very timely manner and made every single one of our requests happen! We had a 62 person wedding reception here and the venue was the perfect size for our seated dinner downstairs and partying and dancing upstairs. It’s such a gorgeous space and the service on the day of was top notch! I have absolutely no regrets and highly recommend booking this spot if you’re looking for a mid size wedding reception venue in Charleston!

We had around 60 guests for our reception at Parcel 32 and it was incredible. Every single thing went off without a hitch and Kelly & Rachel were so easy to work with. Kelly took our feedback from the tasting and worked with the chef to create some bespoke options for our menu. It was very personalized to our tastes and also very accessible, yet elevated, for our guests. We had several people tell us that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had! The staff were very attentive and the space itself is so charming and conducive to whatever your aesthetic or vibe is. Can’t recommend this venue enough- it was such a special day and myself, my groom is and our guests were well taken care of.

We cannot thank Rachel, Nadia and the entire Parcel 32 team enough for such an amazing rehearsal dinner and welcome party.
The food was delicious, bar and service team were so friendly and wonderful- we had so many guest come up to us to share how impressed they were across the board! Throughout all of the planning Rachel and Nadia were so easy to work with, they answered questions quickly, were accommodating and flexible and made us feel like we were truly working with a partner.
Whether you are looking to host your wedding or other wedding weekend celebrations at Parcel 32, we cannot recommend the venue and team enough!

We had an amazing destination wedding for 60 guests at Parcel 32. The service, food and hospitality was second to none. Everyone involved made us feel right at home including Rachael and Kelly! They made the process very enjoyable. Every guest commented on how amazing the food was! Coming from a chef and banquet manager, both in the business for many years, that is not always the case especially with wedding food but but they truly knocked it out of the park on all levels. We highly recommend Parcel 32 for an unforgettable event!

Parcel 32 was the perfect spot for "The Night Before". The venue was the best for an intimate rehearsal dinner and a large welcome party! Guests can mingle on the different floors with a bar on each floor along with a fun piazza overlooking upper king!
The food and service for the rehearsal dinner was a 10/10 and the desserts and drinks for the welcome party were so yummy!!
Erin and the entire staff were so easy to work with and the best in southern hospitality!!!
The night, the location, the food, the service and the venue exceeded every expectation!!!

From start to finish, Parcel 32 was a dream for our September 2024 wedding reception. Erin and Rachel, the lovely ladies managing our event, were extremely communicative and detail oriented. They provided guidance when we needed it and listened when we shared our expectations and vision. Erin, who coordinated the day, executed everything wonderfully. She's an absolute sweetheart.
For an 80 person wedding, the unique, two-level space provided guests with ample room to do whatever they pleased, whether that was dance the night away in the parlour or sit down and enjoy a cocktail and hors devours in the main bar room. On top of that, the food and drinks were amazing. My husband and I are so thankful and grateful for how the reception turned out.

Perfection!!!!!
That's the only word to accurately describe this place. It is already beautifully decorated and furnished. Our ceremony and reception was held here and I could not get over how perfect it was.
Rachel and Jordan are the sweetest ladies. So professional, helpful and attentive from day 1.
The chef and kitchen staff - killed it! Everyone RAVED about the food all night. Not to mention they re-created a favorite oyster dish for me perfectly.
Above and beyond anything I could ask for in terms of a ceremony and reception location.

We had a Welcoming Party for our Son/Fiancee's wedding for 120 guests from out-of-town -- many of the guests stayed in historic downtown hotels within a reasonable walking distance to Parcel 32. When we first visited Parcel 32, and met with Rachel, we knew this was the best place to have the welcoming party -- it was just Charleston! Rachel and Jordan were easy to work with -- professional, very pleasant, accommodating, good communications - from start to finish. There were many food and beverage options to choose from -- and it was easy to find just what we wanted, and more. The Welcome Party went extremely well, just as planned. We received many compliments from our guests on the venue itself, the food, and the service. All the passed Hors D'Oeuvres were well liked...the Low Country Biscuit Bar and the Gelato Bar were especially big hits. Would highly recommend Parcel 32 for any event you may be planning.

Parcel 32 is the perfect venue to have a small wedding, reception, welcome party, or any special event! It is so charming, beautiful, and holds so much history. Felt like we were set back in time! We even had the American theater marquee sign! I was living my notebook love story fantasy lol. We had our reception at Parcel 32. The food was out of this world, our signature drinks were 10/10, and everything couldn’t have gone smoother. Rachel is the sweetest, kindest, most helpful, accommodating, organized, hardworking, person you’ll ever meet. She really puts 1000x efforts in to making sure everything you need is taken care of! She takes so much stress off your plate! I really loved working with her! She works with each vendor and is very present day of. She made sure I was well taken care of! I would hold another event here in a heartbeat!! You will not be disappointed! Also again, the food was AMAZING! And one thing people never forget is the food! All my guest said it was the best food they’ve ever had!

Our wedding day at Parcel 32 was absolutely incredible.
From the beginning of the process I knew it would be the most perfect day. Rachel was amazing to work with and then with the recommendation of Peninsula Events to help with the wedding planning and day of coordination the experience was seamless and not stressful! The venue is beautiful and intimate and the food was absolutely delicious. So many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to and we felt the same way!

The layout of the venue, the food, the service, we can so enough amazing things about this venue and the team at Parcel 32. Seriously, the chef knocked it out of the park. The food and wine was delicious. We worked with Rachel on our selections and found the options all amazing and perfect for our event. Rachel and her team were responsive and met all of our needs. The venue and the layout provided an insanely intimate and fun atmosphere for the warm up to our wedding! After an incredible dinner and toasts, we went upstairs for cocktails and entertainment. I mean, wow, it was so special and Rachel and her team were just freaking amazing. We are so grateful for all you did for us and the absolutely perfect evening for us and our guests!!

Truly the best small venue in Charleston! I have lived in CHS for 4 years and it is the perfect distance from everything for a classic Charleston wedding feel.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Parcel 32 for my wedding. Rachel, Olivia and team at Parcel from the moment we contacted them through the duration of the wedding were some of the most professional, communicative and efficient vendors I've ever worked with. And I came from the event industry! The entire process was seamless and you could tell immediately that there is a reason they are booked up with events almost every night of the week. The planning process was flawless and they worked really hard to meet our requests along with offering fabulous suggestions to elevate the day. They worked within our budget and even steered us in directions to help save money. The team offered some of the best vendor options to make our day special with offering a special list of vendors who they have worked with and had great experiences with. Also, having a turn key venue where you don't have to work with a lot of outside vendors to make the space perfect was a huge plus, especially for day of and logistics. Day of wedding their staff was friendly, extremely helpful and very hardworking. I got many compliments from my guests on how great the staff was. Which now brings us to the food. The food throughout the entire wedding was AMAZING! Feedback across the board was that it was some of the best if not THE BEST wedding food any of my guests had ever had. The filet was cooked perfectly, which was saying something when more than half of our guests came from Texas. The scallops with the corn risotto was perfection, the raviolis had such a nice flavor and the apps, desserts and late night bites were a huge hit! If you are looking for a small intimate venue with the perfect Charleston vibes I would not think twice about booking Parcel!

Our wedding reception at Parcel 32 in Charleston, SC, was nothing short of magical. From the moment we began planning, Rachel S became our guiding star. Her kindness, calm demeanor, and incredible organizational skills made her an absolute joy to work with. We felt like we had a true friend by our side throughout the entire process.
The venue itself is breathtaking, a perfect blend of elegance and charm that made our special day unforgettable. The Parcel 32 team worked seamlessly with our wedding planner, Nicole Wood, and our florist, Coastal Creations. They truly formed a dream team that brought our vision to life with such ease and joy.
One of the highlights was the food—absolutely delicious, and the desserts were so good that we still find ourselves missing them. A heartfelt touch was their recreation of a cherished family recipe, which made our celebration even more special and personal for us and our guests.
From start to finish, we felt completely catered to. Many of our guests told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to, and we couldn’t agree more. The warmth, care, and attention to detail from the entire team at Parcel 32 made our wedding day perfect.
Thank you, Rachel, and everyone at Parcel 32, for making our dream wedding a reality. We are forever grateful for your dedication and for making our day so incredibly special.

My daughter had her wedding and reception at Parcel 32 in April 2024. It was an intimate event with about 60 guests in attendance. Rachel Starling was FABULOUS to work with. From the time we met to do our tasting to the very last event of the evening, Rachel did not miss a beat! She went above and beyond to make sure we had all that we needed, and it truly was the perfect night. The food at Parcel 32 is incredible! We had the small plate filets and our guests raved about them for weeks after the event (along with all of the other foods). Everything was delicious and done to perfection. My biggest fear was that we would run out of food for our guests, and I am pleased to say we had more than enough! The late-night bites and gelato bar were the perfect end to the evening. The entire staff was top-notch-very helpful, professional, and accommodating. The venue is very charming and has that Charleston feel we were looking for. I highly recommend Parcel 32 and Rachel for all of your event needs. You will not be disappointed!

We recently held our rehearsal dinner at Parcel 32, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The team was incredibly communicative, promptly addressing all our questions and concerns, and went above and beyond to accommodate my husband, who has celiac disease, by making numerous substitutions and adjustments without any hassle. Their willingness to work with us on every detail made the planning process smooth and stress-free. The staff’s professionalism and dedication to our needs truly stood out. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue to celebrate such an important event and highly recommend Parcel 32 for their outstanding service and commitment to customer satisfaction.

Our rehearsal dinner and welcome party at Parcel 32 could not have gone smoother! Rachel in Sales and Erin, our event manager, were professional at all times. They offered suggestions as to what might be best for our event. and carried out all details with perfection!! I can sincerely say that Erin is just wonderful! We couldn't ask for anyone better!
- The space itself needs little decorating and so I simply went with bud vases. They supplied tealights. We opted for white linens for the rehearsal dinner and then napkins in the wedding color, sage green.
- The food is fabulous. It is unusual for the food at a wedding venue to be so high quality.
- I loved the desserts!
- The veranda with fresh air was lovely.

We cannot recommend the PPHG group ENOUGH! We had our wedding at the William Aiken House and rehearsal dinner + welcome party at Parcel 32. Every single detail was perfect for the entire weekend. The team helping us plan was incredibly organized, thoughtful, and energetic throughout the process. They were eager to help us make our vision come to life, and open to any accommodations to help our dream weekend come true. From day one with our tour of the properties, the team was very thorough and knowledgeable. The months and weeks leading up to the events were seamless with planning and details, and we never felt like anything was disorganized or rushed. Both events - rehearsal dinner + welcome party and wedding were absolutely flawless. The serving teams and bar staff were extremely attentive to our guests and families, and every person was so kind and welcoming. Our wedding day was truly the day of our dreams. Our guests and families cannot stop raving about how classy and gorgeous everything was, and we will forever be shocked with how perfect the vision came to life. We are eternally grateful to the entire PPHG planning team and event staff- the service was absolutely superior and exceeded every dream and expectation. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!

Working with Kelly and Rachel at Parcel 32 was a dream. All of our planning was done from Texas, and we didn't even lay eyes on the venue until we arrived for our tasting at the end of February with the wedding just weeks away. I had read reviews, so felt confident that we would be well taken care of and the food would be great--but my expectations were exceeded. Everything about the venue was perfect, from the beautiful setting and convenient location to the excellent food and service. Our guests are still commenting on how delicious the food was and how relaxing and enjoyable the dinner was. The staff were all so kind and friendly and added to the welcoming atmosphere. Kelly helped us every step of the way from menu and tableware suggestions to layout and timing issues. And it all flowed just as we had hoped without a single hitch. Communication with the team was never an issue, and I'm not the most organized person, so I appreciated that Kelly absolutely was and reached out to me every step of the way to remind me when my choices were due or next steps I should be thinking about. The tasting was also a wonderful way to get the menu exactly right and we only regretted that we couldn't eat all of the food they offered that day because it was all delicious and beautifully prepared. Thank you Kelly, Rachel and Parcel 32 for kicking off our wedding festivities with a beautiful, relaxing evening that gave our guests a taste of true Charleston hospitality and beauty.

Where to even start….
Let’s start with how Rachel was the only venue manager in Charleston that actually read my initial email. She didn’t respond back with a form letter but rather a few additional questions and then an extremely easy to read quote. She even allowed for an addendum so our dogs could be present for the ceremony (sorry if that’s supposed to be a secret). Immediately just the organization and ease won us over but then the fact that the venue itself is a work of art made it all the more special.
My wife and I worried that with having a 30 person wedding we would have to skimp on luxury. From the food to the ambiance we were completely blown away. We skimped on nothing and got the wedding we both dreamed of. (Get the tomato pies!) Additionally the staff went above and beyond with incredibly meaningful small touches such as letting me bring in my own N.A. champagne and beer to packing up all our items night of and letting us pick them up the next morning (trust me having been to enough weddings now that is not always the case).
Rachel and the entire staff really did provide us with the most magical night. We got so lucky with a team that understood our vision and helped us accomplish it. Rachel asked logistically questions that I had never even considered that helped the day run so smoothly and my favorite part was that she HAD A PLATE OF FOOD WAITING FOR US AFTER FAMILY PICTURES. My wife and I weren’t one of those horror story couples that didn’t get to eat at their own wedding.
I think what I loved most about getting married at Parcel 32 was that I felt like I didn’t have a cookie cutter wedding, I felt like I was at my wedding…it was the most wonderful feeling.

We held my son's rehearsal dinner here in March 2024. From start to finish, Parcel 32 went above and beyond in every way! Rachel and Kelly were great to deal with throughout the whole process, very responsive as well to any question we had. On the evening of the dinner, the service was exceptional, the food amazing, and Kelly was EVERYWHERE making sure every detail was attended to or to see if we needed anything at all. I would highly recommend Parcel 32!
We hosted the dinner downstairs for approximately 40 people which was very cozy and intimate and set up beautifully. Then we moved upstairs for the Welcome Party which hosted about 85 people. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the upstairs porch as well. All signage for the dinner/specialty drinks/table seating arrangement were done by Parcel 32 which was a huge help. One of the many reasons I chose Parcel 32 (after looking at many venues)was because I could hold both the rehearsal dinner and Welcome Party in the same place and have two different ambiances. In addition, the food was excellent! We chose salmon, beef and ravioli as a vegetarian option. I had people stop me all weekend long to tell me how much they loved the venue of Parcel 32 and how much they enjoyed the food! Do yourself a favor and book Parcel 32 for an event and enjoy a wonderful evening for you and your guests!

We held our son's welcome party at Parcel 32 this past January. The evening was perfect. Rachel and her team did an outstanding job of service and hospitality. The food was top notch. The aesthetic of the venue lends itself to not needing much added on. Our guests had nothing but positive comments to share with us. It was a great experience for us. The next day the wedding reception was held next door at The William Aiken house. That experience was also wonderful. Our experience with Patrick Properties was very positive. All comunications were answered in a timely manner. I highly recommend Patrick Properties EventsI

As the groom, it's essential to recognize the undeniable truth: your big day belongs to the Bride. However, my gracious Wife has allowed me to share our wedding day experience with you from my perspective. So, fellow Grooms (and Brides), listen closely – I'm about to make your day.
Step 1: Contact PPHG.
Step 2: Specifically request Rachel Starling, or any member of her amazing team.
Step 3: Prepare for a day that's not only made extra special but also seamlessly easy, ensuring your wedding day unfolds effortlessly.
Now, let's dive into the details...
First and foremost, let's commend Rachel Starling, the orchestrator of our matrimonial symphony. Rachel deserves all the praise in the world. While the spotlight naturally gravitates towards the bride, Rachel's meticulous planning and unwavering support ensured that I, too, felt like an integral part of our momentous occasion. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and genuine care for our vision made all the difference. Rachel seamlessly orchestrated every aspect of our special day, ensuring that our every need was not only met, but exceeded. Her expertise and passion for creating unforgettable experiences truly shone through. Rachel, if you're reading this... You're absolutely amazing and you made our wedding truly unforgettable. On behalf of my Wife (I love saying that...) and myself, Thank you!
Now, let's talk about the food. The food! Perhaps, my favorite part, aside from the I do's. One word : Exquisite! Every dish was crafted with precision and bursting with flavor. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the culinary delights served throughout the evening.
The service at Parcel 32 was unparalleled. The staff went above and beyond to cater to our guests' needs, ensuring that everyone felt welcomed and taken care of. The level of professionalism and attentiveness displayed by the team was remarkable. Don't forget to tip the staff!
Speaking of the venue, our evening began at the historic William Aiken house, where its ambiance added a touch of elegance to our ceremony. Following this, the reception at Parcel 32 unfolded, and it was truly a sight to behold. In opting to experience two of PPHG's signature venues for our wedding, we were treated to a seamless transition between the historic and the modern, each venue offering its own unique charm and character. It was a decision we'll forever cherish, as it allowed us to create unforgettable memories in settings that perfectly complemented the essence of our story.
I'd also like to acknowledge Taylor and Emma from Peninsula Events, who flawlessly orchestrated our ceremony. Their attention to detail and professionalism ensured that every aspect of our ceremony ran smoothly, allowing us to focus on the joy of the moment.
We also highly recommend reserving the marque at the American Theater, if available. Not only does it add a touch of grandeur to the occasion, but it also ensures that your special day is noticed by all passersby on King Street, adding an extra layer of excitement and charm to the festivities.
Our wedding experience was nothing short of perfection. Rachel Starling and her team exceeded our expectations in every way possible, from the impeccable service to the delectable cuisine and the stunning venue. If you're looking for a wedding venue in Charleston that offers an elevated experience with a personal touch, look no further than PPHG. Trust me; you won't be disappointed.

She was great on the night of our wedding and helped keep all the behind the scenes flowing. Parcel 32 was the perfect venue for our wedding reception! It was stunning inside and looked so elegant. The wait staff was very courteous and timely. And the food !!! Let’s not forget to mention how delicious their food was, so kudos to their Chef! Also the bar staff was so nice annd friendly. Everyone talked about the food and drinks all night long and still today! It truly was the best decision having my wedding at Parcel 32 with Patrick properties . I would do it over and over again ! Thank you all for the hard work in making our wedding day dreams come true. Thank you for having such a clean, stunning, and photogenic property in the middle of King St; that was also affordable and so worth the price ! You all were so easy to work with from start to finish and we really are so thankful for it!
So… if you’re reading this review and trying to decide what venue to choose …. As a past Bride … I highly highly recommend Parcel 32 or any of the other stunning locations with Patrick Properties !

Parcel 32 was the first venue we looked at for our wedding and we immediately knew it was the one. It is in the perfect location (downtown Charleston) and is absolutely gorgeous! The decor/build provide a very refined and vintage look that feels very classic but also unique. We were able to have our ceremony and reception here and it made our our da so much easier but it was perfect for our small wedding! Rachel was so amazing to work with from day one and was very thorough throughout the entire process. Even on the wedding day, she checked in with us multiple times to make sure my husband and I were comfortable and having a good time. The wait staff/bartenders were also just incredible! They were so friendly and attentive to us and our guests. Parcel also caters their own food (through Patrick Properties) and it was sooooo good! We got so many comments from our guests about how delicious the food was and we couldn't agree more. We were able to really personalize our menu to our taste and they even encourage you to bring in outside recipes if you have any that are special to you.
I would choose this venue for my wedding over and over again. We were so happy here and had the absolute best time for our wedding! HIGHLY recommend to anyone in search of a smaller venue that provides high quality service, food, and ambience!!

We had our son's rehearsal dinner and welcome party at Parcel 32. The venue and customer service was beyond our expectations. Rachel was our contact person and she did an excellent job in making sure every detail was handled perfectly. The food and professionalism of the staff was equal to a Michelin 5 star restaurant. We would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone for any occasion.

We recently hosted our son’s rehearsal dinner followed by a welcome party at Parcel 32…
Let me just start by saying that Rachel was just amazing to work with and our entire evening was nothing short of spectacular!!… The food and presentation was phenominal !! The entrees… appetizers ….sweets! …all wonderful! …. We also chose Parcel 32 as our venue because of the fabulous ambience of the bar and restaurant downstairs and then the option of moving upstairs for the welcome party where our guests could not stop raving about how cool the space was and of course the wonderful veranda porch !!
Rachel and her staff were excellent with their attention to the details! All of our friends and family traveled from all over the country…..and for many it was their first visit to Charleston!
Parcel 32 was the perfect way to introduce our guests to the wonderful southern charm and hospitality that Charleston has to offer….
Highly highly recommend Parcel 32 for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion!!

We hosted the rehearsal dinner and Welcome Party for our son’s wedding in November at Parcel 32.
Rachel and her staff did an amazing job with all the details. The food was phenomenal. Bar and servers were on top of every detail the whole night.
The venue itself is so unique and beautiful with so much room to entertain.
Rachel was amazing in helping to ensure that we had an unforgettable night.
I highly recommend this venue! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can’t speak more highly about Parcel 32 and my experience working with Rachel. She made the planning process easy and was very accommodating. The venue was sooo cozy and intimate - and all of our guests raved about the food and vibes. One of the best things about this venue is how unique and beautiful it is, with or without bringing in a lot of additional decor! Such great value, and we couldn’t have asked for more!

My husband and I just got married at Parcel 32 over the weekend and we knew we immediately had to write a review for anybody else who is considering this venue for their special event. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Parcel 32, Rachel, the chefs and the entire crew. The process of planning an event at Parcel 32 is truly flawless from start to finish, in large part thanks to Rachel. She is an incredible communicator and has the entire process down to a science. When working with Rachel, you always feel like your event is on track and you very clearly understand where everything stands and your next steps. By the time our actual wedding day came, we were completely at ease and able to enjoy every minute of the day, knowing that Rachel was in control and would keep our timeline on track. Beyond the organization and planning process, we also can't say enough about how beautiful the space is, how delicious the food is, and how wonderful and attentive the crew are. Our guests never waited for a single thing - so many people came up to us saying they've never had better service at a wedding. I really could go on and on but suffice it to say - book this venue and you will not regret it! Thank you, Parcel 32 Team! You made our day SO special and we are forever thankful to you.

The moment our wedding was over, we just wanted to do it all again! It was an absolutely incredible day that we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. The staff at Parcel32 and Rachel were incredibly courteous, kind, and attentive to every detail of our wedding. We never visited Parcel32 in person, but all of our video chats and discussions remotely with Rachel had us more than comfortable with that decision. The food is absolutely incredible, I’d love to attend another event there just to be able to eat again! Besides the food, the space itself is absolutely gorgeous. We did our ceremony upstairs, our cocktail hour and dinner downstairs, and then dessert back upstairs again. The flow kept the night engaging and allowed us to interact with all of our guests. Loved the space, loved the staff, loved it all!

Our group utilized Parcel 32 as an offsite dinner for a women's leadership retreat. The venue was absolutely perfect - uniquely decorated to the point that all we did was add some floral arrangements! The food was delicious and our guests are still raving about it. Rachel Starling was fantastic to work with on the planning and logistics pieces. Cannot recommend this venue more highly!

We had an amazing wedding celebration at Parcel 32. I was looking for a historic home in Charleston to host my small, intimate wedding. I fell in love with the romantic, welcoming, unique and relaxed vibe of Parcel 32 from the first time we visited. I love that it felt like welcoming guests to our home instead of a big ballroom. I also love that the reception took place in different areas of the venue (bar for cocktail hour, dining room for dinner, parlor and veranda for dancing and music). I loved that people weren't just stuck sitting at the same table all night. The decor is absolutely stunning too! It needed minimal decorations because the venue is already so gorgeous! It was very convenient that they did all the food, beverages, and desserts as well as all the dinner ware, glass ware, etc and I didn't have to coordinate these separately. Rachel Starling and the entire staff were absolutely incredible. They did so much behind the scenes that I didn't have to worry about at all. The service was top notch, the food was outstanding, and the venue was gorgeous. The most common compliments I got about the wedding were the venue and the food! I was especially excited about the gelato bar which I thought was a unique offering that not many venues provide.
Rachel truly went above and beyond my expectations of an event manager. Things were handled so seamlessly that I didn't even notice something was wrong. Everything was executed flawlessly. She was extremely helpful leading up to the wedding too!
We couldn't be happier with our experience at Parcel 32, we would get married there again in a heartbeat!

My husband and I hosted our son and daughter-in-law's Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Party at Parcel 32. Rachel was our event manager and she was outstanding! None of us live in Charleston so we really relied on her excellent communication skills during the planning process. She was always very responsive and understanding and turned our vision for this event into a stunning reality. The venue is so gorgeous that we did not have to spend much money on decor, and the food was exceptional. We used both the upstairs and the downstairs and the service, food and drink were all amazing! I highly recommend Parcel 32 for a beautiful, top quality event with stellar service and true southern charm!

Rachel Starling at Parcel32 is simply amazing. We worked with her for a year on setting up a rehearsal dinner this last Friday for our son and new daughter in law's wedding and she took down every detail I gave her and implemented it in a seamless fashion. The venue was decorated and gorgeous, the food was the best I have had and the overall event exceeded my expectations beyond anything I could imagine. Rachel was extremely kind, caring, supportive and very responsive throughout it all. I would absolutely recommend this venue for any type of event because Rachel will give you a the very best treatment from start to finish.
response 11/08/2023
Hi Mary - Thank you so much for your kind words! We'll be sure to pass your feedback along...
to Rachel and the events and culinary teams. We hope to see you again for a future event down the road. Cheers!
