This was my first child to get married, and I had so much to learn! She helped me navigate the maze of event planning. She met with me several times, allowed me to do multiple walk-throughs, try out different ceneterpieces, etc. and was on-site with us the whole night - even the day after Thanksgiving! The space is lovely - dark wood, elegant furnishings and fixtures. Two beautiful rolling bars that were enormously helpful. Tables, chairs, bar stools all included. The view from the patio is stunning. If you're doing an evening event, make sure it includes sunset! We couldn't have been happier!

The 18 hole "Ralston Creek" is an exciting 18 hole regulation course, where you need to step up your game a notch, if not these 2 courses will cut you in half.. From the longest tees, the course plays to about 7,446 yards of golf for a par of 72, that my friends is about current U.S.OPEN length, with a lower slope rating though.course rating is 74.4 with a slope rating of 134. The Nationwide tour still hosts an event here and truthfully, if there were the room for bleachers, concessions and transportation. With a few weeks work to narrow the fairways and toughen up the greens, I believe the PGA could host an event here, it is that good.The course was designed by Rees Jones and opened in 2006. The 18-hole "Beresford Creek" course at the Daniel Island Club features 7,093 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72 . This is the older of the two courses and opened around 2000.The course rating at Beresford Creek is 74.4 and it has a slope rating of 134, so it plays shorter, but no less difficult.

What an amazing experience, from planning to execution. We hired Iron Clay Catering for a Citadel…read morereunion party we hosted at home. We had about 30 guests attend the party. The menu consisted of some passed hors d'oeuvres and food stations on the kitchen island. Chef Alex and Meg were a great team. They arrived at the house and got to work. The food was delicious, and the presentation was lovely. Meg buzzed around the house and backyard, offering food and clearing plates. Hosting a party has never been that easy. My house was in tip-top shape at the end of the evening. If you want a lovely, reasonably priced, and carefree party at your home, I highly recommend you hire Iron Clay Catering.

I cannot recommend Palm Tree Party Rentals enough! We have used them two times already and we love…read morethem. Jill, the owner, is so sweet and professional. Last year they came for my daughter's birthday and my daughter got a little nervous during her painting so we gave her break. Jill made sure she checked in with her often to see if she wanted to continue and ended up painting on her hand. She was able to get to most of the kids twice. This year was just as great. We had about 8 kids and most got their face and hand painted. Jill takes the time to talk to the kids and see what they are into. She even checks to see what the theme of the party is so she has some ideas. I highly, highly recommend Palm Tree Party Rentals! Can't wait to use them again!

I purchased a bunch of decoration and bachelorette stuff (shirts, straws, etc) and I mailed everything to Betsey about two weeks before the trip.

Betsey was available to answer questions before and during the trip. I couldn't be more grateful to Betsey and Pop the Bubbly.
