Here is a little bit about the three locations you will be shooting:
MILLS HOUSE
Located in Charleston’s vibrant downtown. A half a mile from King Street, Rainbow Row, Charleston City Market, and Joe Riley Waterfront Park. The College of Charleston is a ten-minute drive, and The Charleston Museum is a mile away. The Iconic pink hotel is home to historic wedding venues—dripping with endless Southern charm. Their unique event spaces span from beautiful ballrooms to gardens in bloom, from antique fountains to stunning pool terraces.
WILLIAM-AIKEN HOUSE
Sweeping ballrooms, lush private grounds, and open-air piazzas make this historic 1807 mansion one of Charleston’s most sought-after venues for weddings and once-in-a-lifetime occasions.
A seamless blend of 19th-century allure and modern sophistication, the William Aiken House welcomes guests into a peaceful retreat inside its gates on Upper King Street. Formal dining rooms and parlors showcase a collection of museum-caliber artwork and antiques. At the same time, a two-century-old magnolia tree is the centerpiece of sunlit courtyards and manicured lawns, an elegant pergola, and a Gothic-style Carriage House.
THE CEDAR ROOM
The Cedar Room at Mercantile and Mash, located in the celebrated Cigar Factory, is an open and airy space featuring historic wood columns, hardwood floors, and original elements of the circa 1881 building. The walls consist of rustic brick and floor-to-ceiling windows that reveal a view of the architecturally acclaimed Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge.
