Saw Mill Pond Vineyard

I was so excited to have my wedding here and Keys was amazing until about 2 days before the big day. EVERYTHING about her changed. She became rude and unpleasant. She made me and many of my vendors feel unwelcome. She had previously (on multiple occasions) said it would be ok for our team to come in on Thursday to start setting up but on Thursday she confronted one of the guys quite harshly as they arrived. I ended up paying for an extra day so she would allow the decorators to get started bringing in decorations. She claimed she knew nothing about us being there on Thursday but was aware we would provide breakfast on Sunday at the property. I figured paying extra for the day was an easy fix and apologized for the confusion. I just wanted a good wedding day. She seemed pleasant enough on the following Friday and Saturday. But on Sunday she confronted the chef who came in to cook breakfast and from what I heard she actually cursed at him. When I arrived she was angry and just wanted us off her property because she was showing it to others that day (we reserved and paid for the property for the full weekend Friday-Sunday plus Thursday). In the course of my family and friends and I helping the decorators pack up the items her husband came around and they together proceeded to taunt and threaten me in front of everyone which literally lead me to tears. It was a horrible experience, I never would have imagined things would’ve turned out this way. I do not recommend this place to anyone! I’m trying to be fair here but if I could’ve done it over anywhere in the world would’ve been better than this place. And the worse part is how much I had grown to adore Keys and how her attitude changed so drastically to a point where she was cursing at vendors. I had vendors who mentioned they never wanted to even work at any events at that location again. Such a shame.

I give this place a six star rating…thank you for everything you’ve done mr& mrs Dean

I was the Wedding Planner with Direct My Day Charleston and had wedding at the Vineyard last weekend and I can’t say enough wonderful things about this venue. It honestly might be listed in my top 5 venues to work at now in all the area. Keys and and John are absolutely amazing and so sweet and accommodating and have everything you need to make you feel right at home. I highly recommend booking this venue for your wedding it’s absolutely beautiful and the pricing is amazing and you feel like family when you leave. I will definitely be bringing clients from Charleston to check this venue out. So looking forward to booking another Wedding here soon.

This is a wonderful venue! The owners Keys and John go above and beyond to make your as magical and easy as possible.
