Iconic Southern Charm with Live Music to Match
Looking for the perfect spot to say “I do” in Charleston? White Point Garden, nestled at the southern tip of the Charleston peninsula, offers one of the city’s most romantic settings for small weddings, elopements, and proposals. With centuries-old live oaks, panoramic waterfront views, and a charming gazebo ideal for your ceremony, this park is a favorite for locals and destination couples alike.
Romantic Gazebo Ceremonies
Exchange vows beneath the historic White Point Garden gazebo, surrounded by natural beauty and Charleston’s timeless architecture. This setting is especially suited for intimate weddings with under 30 guests, elopements, or surprise proposals.

Enhance your ceremony with elegant live music from Charleston’s most refined professional musicians. Choose from a variety of classical and acoustic options to personalize your moment:
Ensembles and Soloists in the Gazebo
String Duo (Violin & Cello) – A fuller, harmonious sound for your entrance and exit
Solo Cello – Rich, warm tones perfect for timeless elegance
Solo Violin – Graceful and romantic, ideal for classic selections
Harp – Delicate, ethereal ambiance for a fairytale feel

We specialize in music that complements the atmosphere—whether you’re planning a traditional classical set, a custom arrangement of a favorite song, or even a surprise performance during your proposal.
