About
On WeddingWire since 2017
Nestled in the heart of Downtown Columbia, South Carolina, 1208 Washington Place is an exquisite venue that exudes old-time charm. Dating all the way back to 1924, this remarkable event venue boasts a well-deserved place on Columbia's list of historic buildings and is proudly listed on The National Historic Register. Until 1994, it was home to an operational bank, and it still retains the authenticity of its origins, featuring the original bank vaults, a board room, windows, ceilings, and a revolving door.
Facilities and Capacity
1208 Washington Place offers an array of event spaces, each characterized by its distinct charm and versatility. The National Republic Ballroom evokes the nostalgia of a bygone era, welcoming guests with meticulously preserved 22' recessed textured ceilings, setting the stage for elegant gatherings accommodating up to 300 guests in a reception setting. The Washington Street Ballroom seamlessly melds the bank's original stocks & bonds room, presenting a contemporary and unique atmosphere with its floor-to-ceiling windows, exposed air ducts, and adaptable air walls, accommodating groups ranging from 5 to 300. The three levels of outdoor terraces and courtyard are tucked away by original brick walls that provide a quiet sanctuary from the bustling city. The terraces are the perfect place for an outdoor cocktail hour or social event.
