Charleston, SC
Weddings at Redeemer
Our beautiful historic church building is nestled in one of Charleston's charming, tree-lined streets, surrounded by historic homes and gorgeous gardens. Wood details and charming courtyards make it a lovely venue for wedding ceremonies. We are delighted to share our building with both members and non-members.
Our Sanctuary
Redeemer's sanctuary is able to accommodate weddings of any size, from elopements to guest lists of 350. Impressive stained glass windows and hard-carved balconies provide the perfect backdrop for your special day. Additional features include wooden pews, a baby grand piano, a historic Hook and Hastings pipe organ, and two charming garden areas.
Event Hall AND Courtyard
Our newly renovated Event Hall in the building next door is available for rehearsal dinners and receptions for up to 250 guests. The event hall features wood floors, vaulted ceilings, chandeliers, huge windows, and lovely architectural details. The garden courtyard may also be rented for small outdoor receptions.
Our simple wedding policies and friendly staff help make planning a wedding fun, relaxing, and easy! Contact us today for a complimentary wedding consultation and facility tour.
