When Roxann and Stephen considered venues for their wedding, the South Carolina Aquarium was a natural choice. Roxann had just received her Ph.D. in veterinary sciences, and wedding at the Aquarium effortlessly reflected her passion for animals and the environment. Beyond that, Roxann’s guests loved the opportunity to walk around the Aquarium and enjoy the diversity of the exhibits!

For this busy couple, the ease of working with the Aquarium’s event staff and vendors was very comforting. Roxann and Stephen took advantage of the elegant ambiance offered by the lively marine backdrop, adding subtle touches like lanterns and sweetgrass roses to make the space their own. The panoramic view of the Cooper River and Charleston Harbor helped, too!

“Everything worked seamlessly the day of the wedding and the final product was simply incredible,” Roxann said. “We have received nothing but positive responses from our guests about how gorgeous the Aquarium was and how much they enjoyed it.”
