Founders Hall at Charles Towne Landing was incredible! We were able to have both the ceremony and the reception here. The staff was incredible and they had so many options for both indoors and outdoors. Their Monday price really was icing on the cake.

Julie and her staff are great to work with. Founder's Hall was the perfect venue for us with it's modern achritecture and serene private courtyard. Although our wedding was cancelled, I would recommend this venue to everyone. It is beautiful inside and out. For us, the Park Ranger was forced to cancel our wedding due to the unfortunate weather known as the Charleston flooding of October 2015. Many highways and roads were underwater and closed. We completely understood the cancellation. But we're astonished when the Ranger Bob offered to refund us 100%. Typically, venues include an "act of God" clause in the contact. We were grateful that they could see beyond this and refund us. Again, just great people all around.

I held my reception at Founders Hall. It is a great venue. My bridesmaids, mom and me all got ready there. We were able to relax and enjoy the day. There was ample room for our hair and makeup to be done. The staff was helpful and easy to reach. The tables and chairs were included which was a huge benefit. The room is large and was perfect for our 180 guests.

I am extremely satisfied with the services provided to me thus far. Both Lee and Julie Ann have been absolutely amazing. I am extremely detail oriented and ask ALOT and they always answer in a timely fashion and also continue to provide me with ideas of how to make what I want work in the space. The actual hall is gorgeous, and the ceremony location is beautiful as well.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
