About this venue
Located in the heart of Charleston’s French Quarter, Poogan’s Courtyard offers an indoor-outdoor setting with the convenience of a full-service venue. With exposed brick, stylish fixtures, and glowing bistro lights overhead, the space feels timeless, warm, and naturally photogenic. Our courtyard can flex for both ceremonies and receptions, whether you’re exchanging vows or hosting a cocktail hour with room to mingle. We offer in-house catering and bar service, which means fewer vendors to juggle and a seamless planning experience from start to finish. Menus are rooted in Lowcountry cuisine, thoughtfully crafted, and designed to impress. Poogan’s Courtyard is just a short walk from many of Charleston’s top hotels, making it easy for guests to enjoy the night without worrying about logistics. We also include a wide range of rentals, so you can focus on styling your day instead of sourcing the basics. We're a space that feels distinctly Charleston and built to support your vision.

Highly Recommend!
We couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our rehearsal dinner and welcome party. Poogan’s Courtyard was incredibly easy to work with, so accommodating, and truly made the entire experience stress-free from start to finish. Hosting back-to-back events in the same space was seamless, and the team executed everything flawlessly. The food was amazing, the space itself is absolutely beautiful, and the overall atmosphere was perfect for kicking off our wedding weekend. It was such a special way to see and celebrate with everyone before the big day, and this venue could not be more ideal for it. We are so grateful to the Poogan’s Courtyard team for helping make our weekend unforgettable—highly, highly recommend!

Poogan's Courtyard was the perfect venue for our wedding. From our first inquiry, the team was fantastic - very thorough in their communication and incredibly flexible in helping us bring our vision to life. The space itself is so cute and intimate, with an old rustic feel that has been modernized beautifully. They were incredibly accommodating of our guests' food allergies, and the bar menu they provided was excellent, with non-alcoholic beer and mocktails that all our guests raved about. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we are so grateful to the Poogan's team for making our special day absolutely perfect.

Magical!
Poogan's Courtyard was the perfect venue for our small, minimalist wedding of 20 guests. The staff was incredibly attentive and helpful throughout the entire process - their communication was easy, quick, and non-judgmental. On the day of, the staff was constantly checking in to make sure my husband and I, as well as our guests, had everything we needed. The food was absolutely amazing, and the rustic, cozy feel of the space was exactly what we were looking for without needing much additional decor. The value for what we got was perfect, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Poogan's Courtyard for any couple looking for a clean, intimate wedding venue.

Wedding reception
Poogan's Courtyard was a wonderful venue for our wedding. Their communication style was consistent, prompt, and polite throughout the planning process, which helped ease a lot of stress. The venue itself provided a cozy and elegant backdrop for our special day. While the decor was simple, it was exactly what we envisioned. The food was absolutely delicious and raved about by our guests. Poogan's Courtyard had every detail covered so I didn't have to worry at all. Between the delicious fare, beautiful venue, and fantastic service, the cost was very reasonable. I would highly recommend Poogan's Courtyard for any couple looking for a venue that has everything you need to celebrate in style!
