Gloria and Jameson’s Mount Pleasant wedding ceremony and reception took place on June 23rd at Patriot Point's majestic setting looking over the Charleston Harbor. Floral arrangements by Island Bouquets and a cake by Flowerchild beautifully showcased the couple’s chosen colors of coral, navy and gold. In regards to our catering, the couple had quite the spread including delicious items like Penne a la Vodka, Chicken Piccata, Prime Rib and a grand seafood display with local peeled shrimp, Stone Crab claws and chilled oysters on the half shell.

Large Event Venue Opens in Mount Pleasant

Relish Distinctive Catering is the proud co-owner of a new event venue in Mount Pleasant! We’ve partnered with Dunes West and RiverTowne to open Thomas Lynch Hall. The venue is located on the Dunes West property (at 3003 Dunes West Boulevard in Mount Pleasant), and it is available to the general public (you do not need to be a Dunes West club member to reserve it). 

Thomas Lynch Hall can hold up to 350 guests, which is pretty special. Most indoor venues in the Charleston area are much smaller. The property offers ample parking as well.

Thomas Lynch Hall is available for private parties, corporate events and weddings. Any event at the hall that is booked through and catered by Relish includes white linens, glassware, flatware and china at no additional cost.

A Colorful Fall Wedding on Charleston Harbor

There is so much to love about fall weddings! Temperatures are dropping, and the humidity is relenting. October is statistically the driest month of the year in Charleston, which makes outdoor event planning a lot easier, but a lack of precipitation isn't the only reason you should consider a fall wedding in Charleston....

The Cottages on Charleston Harbor - Wedding Venue and Destination Weddings

While fall typically conjures images of yellow, orange and red foliage, "fall color" in the Lowcountry takes on a whole new meaning! Pink Muhly Grass (Muhlenbergia), more commonly known as sweetgrass, is absolutely breathtaking. The pink blooms emerge in early October and last well into winter, depending on the weather. 

The Cottages on Charleston Harbor

Sweetgrass, sand, a harbor breeze and palmetto trees... The Cottages on Charleston Harbor offer that and a whole lot more. Kelly and David said "I do" at the Cottages last fall, and the day couldn't have been more beautiful...

Happy anniversary to Kelly and David! We fondly remember your special day, and wish you even more love and laughter in the years to come.

The Cottages on Charleston Harbor are perfect for destination weddings and events that involve out of town guests.

Breezy Bridal Portraits & Space to Play at Patriots Point

The Pavilion at Patriots Point is a popular choice for Charleston weddings. It's conveniently located, beautifully maintained and features a stunning view of Charleston Harbor. The grounds are gorgeous, and the harbor breeze produces some pretty romantic photos...

This delightfully windy wedding session was captured by the talented team at Raluca Rodila Photography

The Pavilion at Patriots Point is the perfect backdrop for bridal portraits, but it has so much more to offer. The property features a waterfront ceremony lawn, a tented reception area and tons of space to play. Adorable newlyweds, Alex and Brian, certainly took advantage of the space with a playful cocktail hour. Guests enjoyed drinks, hors d'oeuvres, corn hole and darts. Yes, you read that right. Darts! 

Every wedding should be this fun!

Kensington Plantation was originally part of a 12,000 acre tract of land known as Cypress Barony. The land was divided in 1709, and a portion was given the name Kensington in 1740.

The Stoney family still maintains ownership of the property. 

Kensington Plantation is now available for private events of all sizes, and it is gaining popularity among Lowcountry brides. Brides who book Kensignton are encouraged to take advantage of our comprehensive catering services. In addition to food, we are equipped to provide...

A Lavish Charleston Wedding at Patriots Point

The following images (courtesy of Riverland Studios) are from a wedding at the Pavilion at Patriots Point. Vibrant and stylish, the celebration was a true reflection of the fun loving bride and groom. The waterfront ceremony and tented reception were elegantly decorated in shades of white and blue. Tall floral arrangements, special furniture, textured linens and colored lighting created a modern and whimsical atmosphere, while personal touches, like Korovai (Russian wedding bread), kept family traditions alive.

Water View and Waterfront Venues in Charelston

Water is one of the most appealing aspects of Charleston’s landscape. The downtown peninsula boasts harbor views, and the surrounding area offers a mixture of marshlands, creeks, ponds, waterways and beaches. With all that water to choose from, it’s no wonder that venues with a view are popular among Charleston brides.
