Amenities couples mention
“Plus the bridal suite is not that big, so if you have a larger wedding party ( over 3) I would suggest booking a hotel down the street to get dressed, and do makeup.”
“It has two fountains and a beautiful labyrinth garden.”
“Anything more than 100 would make the space feel pretty tight, especially once the dance floor is set up.”
What couples say again and again
“I had a beautiful wedding at The Carriage House and would highly recommend this venue!”
From the reviews
Had my wedding at the Carriage House, and I must say it’s a beautiful location. I have been planning my wedding since 2022, and due to some family issue and a death I had to change my date, and the staff was awesome with working with me to get that situated. Sandy and the other staff are wonderful.
Amazing location. Easter weekend; spring flowers blooming, birds, butterflies and bees out. If photographing a wedding this is incredible. Elevator or stairs, the event was easy for everyone. Huge wood beams and stone walls make for a beautiful backdrop in everyone's pictures.
The place was pretty but seemed to me to be very small. Family of my girlfriend got married and had the reception here at the Carriage House and it seemed to be somewhat smaller than I thought it would be. The wedding took place downstairs and the reception was upstairs right after they got married.
We rented this venue for my daughter’s baby shower and our experience was amazing from start to finish!!! Sandy was extremely helpful, quick to respond to any questions, and helped make our day an amazing one. The venue itself is a beautiful and historic place to have any event!!
Getting married at The Carriage House in Columbia
The Carriage House in Columbia comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
