We've been getting loads of questions from Lowcountry brides-to-be asking for local venue recommendations, not only for their ceremony and reception (check out last week's post on Lowcountry Plantations), but also for different properties that can accommodate your wedding weekend events (think bridal luncheons, rehearsal dinners, the post-wedding Bon Voyage brunch...oh, and let's not forget showers and engagement parties). So, to better assist our Lowcountry ladies, we'll be posting weekly on different venues around town...

We're going to kick off this series by highlighting our friends over at Maverick Southern Kitchens who, in addition to the restaurants we'll highlight below, are the brains behind Charleston Cooks! and Slightly North of Broad, which is lovingly referred to as S..N.O.B. The team at Maverick's pairs high-end food with Lowcountry charm for a one-of-a-kind Charleston wedding celebration.
