Runnymede

ect for any event. The Sales Director, Tiffany, is always a pleasure to work with. She is hardworking and truly cares about her clients and the integrity of the property. We love working with the team at Runnymede and we are always excited to see how we can enhance the beauty of the grounds.

te is perfect and cozy. One of the biggest pluses to this location is that the tent is a permanent fixture on-site with flooring! It rained a little on our wedding day, and it was not a big deal at all because I didn't have to stress about it.

any issues. There was a slight worry about my grandparents getting around easily, but that wasn't an issue at all.

and the groom's fam is from Canada, they still loved it!). The lush green grass under the oak trees with all the Spanish moss was straight out of a fairy tale... I didn't use the tent on property, but it was nice to have for my vendors and as a backup space just in case of rain. I truly wouldn't have done it any differently, I am ecstatic for my pictures to come back because I know they will be just incredible. Thank you Tiffany!!

he tent already on site. I had a seated dinner with 135 people. There were no mosquitos on my day, but that is likely due to season and the mosquito service we had spray - I wouldn't go without for a summer wedding! Pros: - BEAUTIFUL plantation - Overlooking the water - Gorgeous old oak tree in the center - Multiple oak trees to choose from - Only 1 wedding per weekend so if you book for Saturday you can use the venue Friday and Sunday as well - Reasonably priced - Got to use plantation for bridal portraits and other sessions as well - Plenty of space for parking - Already has a very large tent on site with hardwood floors. Could fit a large seated dinner - The ruins are unique and beautiful - Very private Cons: - Have to use their tent vendor (Synder) - Have to use their bar vendor (Spike by Synder) - Have to use their bathroom people (Natures Calling) - All outdoors (weather issues) - Nothing other than the tent is included, so the cost of rentals becomes quite high - There is no structure on the site besides the tent, so there is no area to get ready or hide day of - 30 mins away from downtown, if your guests are staying there *There is an inn next door at Middleton we didn't find out about until it was too late. - On the river where potentially people could boat by during your day (didn't happen to me). - Very small entrance sign so hard to locate - Doesn't show up on Apple Maps. *MUST USE Google Maps for guests to find. Summary: If you're looking for a beautiful, Charleston-esk wedding venue that will give you gorgeous photos for life and can afford the rentals and last minute weather add ons, then this is the place for you.

re beautiful, and there are a number of ceremony spots to pick from if you're having both the ceremony and reception on site (we picked the spot beside the river!) Tiffany was easy to work with and met with us multiple times to view the property. She also provided contacts for vendors who had previously worked events at the site, allowing us to hire quality vendors with experience at the site. The permanent on-site reception tent is large, and we particularly loved the wooden tent floorboards. The real highlight of Runnymede is that it almost acts as a blank canvas--you are only limited by your imagination. We chose to have simple decorations and flowers to let the natural beauty of the site shine, and it ended up both beautiful and personal to us as a couple. From the moment I first saw Runnymede, I knew there was nowhere else in Charleston I wanted to get married. I would pick it again in a heartbeat!

hey were AMAZING to work with too!

was the selling point for us but being right on the river along with the ruins was absolutely a dream! Tim was very helpful! Our dream wedding came true at Runnymede!
