About this venue

The Kersey House, located in historic downtown Summerville, South Carolina, is a beautifully renovated wedding venue that dates back to circa 1912. It is owned and operated by Nico Romo, one of only 66 French master chefs in the country and the only one residing in South Carolina. As you enter the venue, you will be welcomed by two spacious southern verandas, along with a tribute to the Kersey family. The four grand parlor rooms feature original heart pine floors, stunning fireplaces, and small tributes to each family member. The venue also boasts an expansive ballroom and a large courtyard adorned with azaleas and hydrangeas, creating an intimate urban oasis. Custom tenting options are available for versatile use of the outdoor spaces, regardless of the weather.

    Summerville has sought a wedding venue that offers the same charm and quality as downtown Charleston but at a more affordable price. This brand-new venue is set to open in December 2024 and will be fully available for brides in 2025!
