Jamie F. Sent on 05/09/2023Great New Venue in Charleston!
John at Union Station could not have been better to work with! From the first day we saw the space I knew this blank canvas would be the perfect backdrop. He was so accommodating on bar choices and his staff was SO professional. He also was great to provide advice as well as flexible on vendors and adding greenery to the space.
This space is spectacular for all climates and puts your mind at ease for weather precautions. We had 200+ guests, band, and plenty of seating options and the space felt perfectly filled! John also let us hang lights and greenery from the trusses to make the space intimate. I cannot recommend John or his beautiful space any more! Thank you again!!

Tina M. Sent on 08/07/2022Union Station made our wedding feel like a dream!
My wife and I were on the hunt for a venue much more unique than the common "Southern rustic" style wedding most opt for in Charleston. One night after dinner, we decided to walk over to one of Shepard Fairey's murals (one of my wife's favorite artists) which was in the same parking lot as Union Station. We peeked through the windows and felt the venue had such art installation vibes (huge bonus for my art teacher wife), which would allow us to fill the space with our own style. It was a hidden gem we were so fortunate to come across and instantly knew this is where we wanted our wedding.
Things to highlight: Union Station is a huge space with large ball lantern-style lights (included!) and an awesome bar setup. The big windows and huge garage door made natural light come through beautifully. It's especially cool at night to see the surrounding murals on the other buildings that can be viewed through these windows. There's also a great bridal suite space upstairs that made it easy for us to get ready. Not to mention tables and high-end chairs are included with the venue! The venue's bar service was also top-notch and super accommodating to our guests.
What was also huge plus for us is that the venue is located right off King Street which made it super accessible for our wedding guests who stayed right down the block at the Hyatt House and could be near all of the popular downtown bars. Having a venue on King Street at a reasonable price was something we didn't think would have been possible with our budget. Oh, and on-site parking in DOWNTOWN CHARLESTON! Huge bonus.
I have to give a BIG shoutout to John at Union Station. Working with him was incredibly easy and comforting. John made the entire planning process so smooth and stressless. He was very responsive to any questions I had while getting things geared up before the big day. Any time I had to swing by the venue, he always made it work. The guy puts in the work at that place and it shows!
Most importantly, this is a very LGBTQ+ friendly venue. I specifically wanted to hire vendors who supported the community we are a part of and we could trust. It was an easy choice with Union Station who made us feel celebrated and welcomed.
Having our wedding at Union Station was an absolute dream and I can't recommend them enough!

Union Station
Union station is THE BEST Charleston venue. The staff is extremely nice to work with and the actual venue is beautiful. It’s an awesome place to have any of event with a specific decoration vision. Out of all the vendors I had to coordinate for my wedding, Union station was the easiest and honestly my favorite to work with. The price and what’s included is extremely reasonable for Charleston. If you’re thinking about Union station, do it!!!Union Station's reply:

The perfect wedding reception space! Unique, Spacious and Fun!
Union Station was the absolute best choice for our wedding reception. John provided excellent service, the booking process was seamless, he was always there to help and quickly responded to any questions we had. The area has plenty of parking for guest (which is a plus for downtown Charleston!!) and the event space was very clean and inviting. I would 100% recommend having your wedding/reception/or event at Union Station. It is definitely a one of a kind space for downtown Charleston. -
