Google Reviews
Thomas Bennett House provided the wedding venue of our dreams. Kathy and team at Thomas Bennett were such a pleasure to work with throughout the planning process and during our big day. Most critically, the venue is just absolutely stunning. Like seriously. The combination of the immaculately kept, secluded outdoor garden space for both our ceremony and reception, along with a indoor mansion/outdoor porch scene for cocktail hour, was the ideal set up for our big day. We will never forgot our wedding at Thomas Bennett, and from countless conversations with our friends and family since, neither will they!
We attended a wedding here. The venue was gorgeous with lots of opportunities for romantic spots away from the main crowd. The house itself was clean and spacious
Beautiful venue with wonderful service!
One of the most beautiful historical sites in charleston.
The Governor Thomas Bennett House is one of the most beautiful venues in Charleston, SC. We had our wedding on February 25, 2023 where we hosted both, our ceremony and reception, at the house and were so pleased with how it turned out. The GTBH is slightly more expensive than other local venues but it's worth the price. You're able to use each and every inch of the space! My bridesmaids and I got ready upstairs in the bridal suite, while my husband and his bridal party were able to hang out downstairs in the grooms area where they had a refrigerator, lounge chairs/couches and TVs. The inside of the house on the main floor was utilized during cocktail hour, in addition to the gorgeous porch that overlooks the garden. We had guests tour the house, in awe of it's beauty, during cocktail hour. The garden space outside is absolutely stunning and we got SO many compliments on our wedding venue, layout and space. The photos from our wedding are so stunning and a lot of it can be contributed to the beautiful trees with moss, GORGEOUS year-round florals and bloomed trees. The team works diligently year round to make this a gorgeous venue and it's truly something special. Ms. Kathy was such a pleasure to work with over our 18 month engagement period and made us feel so welcomed throughout the entire time, and especially on the day of. We feel so, so grateful that our wedding planner told us about this gorgeous space. Even as Charleston locals, we had no idea this beauty existed in the quaint streets of the peninsula. I highly recommend this venue for anyone who wants to have a gorgeous wedding without paying for drapery or excess florals! Our guests cannot stop talking about it!
