✨A Soiree Unlike Any Other

Hosting our group's opening reception at the historic William Aiken House, nestled perfectly on bustling King Street, was nothing short of magical! ✨

Just beyond the iconic greenery wrapped iron gates, guests were welcomed with warm southern hospitality, fine champange and some of the most delectable bites that the South has to offer. Our thoughtfully curated evening featured a classic design aesthetic paired with engaging entertainment that evoked incredible Lowcountry garden party feels. The evening air was filled with laughter and lively conversations.

A true "Welcome" indeed, it was a night that celebrated the past while embracing the future, and we are thrilled to have been a part of it.
