SOUTHERN PLANTATION WEDDINGS
Live oak-lined alleys dripping with Spanish moss. Sunsets over marshes decorated with herons and egrets. Green reed patches where rice once grew. The embrace of warm salt-water breezes. These are some of the alluring elements of Southern plantation weddings. We have identified some of the most popular and exclusive plantation locations for the most memorable wedding ceremonies and celebrations. Lowcountry plantations are distinct from many others as they are more replete with wildlife and sultry lighting. Wedding parties in these settings harken a time gone and at the same time call upon the past to embrace and bless new beginnings.
THE WHITMAN
Don't hassle with hotel staff. Make your wedding a private affair: Private House. Private Suites. Personal Concierge. You will find all of it at the majestic and newly-restored Whitman on Forsyth Park.
