Reviews
When creating my menu, PPHG helped me customize it to exactly what I wanted... even down to my bar selections and signature drinks. On the day of my wedding, they exceeded every single expectation I had. The service was magical, amazing and top notch. I did not lift a finger, nor did I stress about anything. They are a class act and professionals in every single way when it comes to the wedding business.
Megan, The Knot
The wait staff/bartenders were also just incredible! They were so friendly and attentive to us and our guests. Parcel 32 also caters their own food (through Patrick Properties) and it was sooooo good! We got so many comments from our guests about how delicious the food was, and we couldn't agree more. We were able to really personalize our menu to our taste, and they even encourage you to bring in outside recipes if you have any that are special to you.
Stephanie, The Knot
PPHG nailed it on the food and the drinks! The food was unbelievable and we had champagne passed around during cocktail hour. Our guests have been telling us that it was by far the best wedding they had ever been to!
Anna, The Knot
The food and professionalism of the staff was equal to a Michelin 5 star restaurant. We would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone for any occasion.
Linda, The Knot
All I heard from our guests after the wedding was how phenomenal the food was. Everything was high quality and everything we wanted.
Cassie, The Knot
The tasting experience was phenomenal. We requested two custom passed hors d'oeuvres that the culinary team executed flawlessly. The mini empanadas were one of our favorite parts of the day! Finally, the whole staff at PPHG exceeded every expectation for the day of. They prepared my husband and me a tray of appetizers for after the ceremony to eat privately, and they made sure that our parents were well taken care of throughout the night.
Katherine, The Knot
The food is absolutely incredible, I’d love to attend another event there just to be able to eat it again!
Lauren, The Knot
Beyond the beautiful venue, everything was executed with perfection. The food was outstanding, and the culinary team was enthusiastically flexible in accommodating some of our special requests. The same goes for the drinks - the cocktails were well prepared, and the PPHG team helped us procure a few special beers that we were particularly interested in having. The service and hospitality throughout entire process, and especially that night, were wonderful. Everything throughout dinner was executed to perfection, with professional and seamless plate drops at every table.

FAQ

At PPHG, we work hard to accommodate tastings prior to most events. For guests who cannot attend a tasting in person, we do have a virtual “tasting” tool through our Client Login, where your Event Manager can walk you through all the culinary options. For more information, please connect with your Sales Manager.

With the exception of wedding cakes, PPHG is the exclusive in-house provider of all food + beverage for our events.

Absolutely! Be sure to notify your Event Manager of any allergens and dietary restrictions before finalizing your menu.

We do not provide wedding cakes through PPHG, but our talented pastry team can create an array of sweet confections for your big event! We’re also happy to provide a list of preferred wedding cake bakers local to the Charleston area. Please reach out to your Sales or Event Manager to request the list.

We can absolutely accommodate for any custom items you would like to incorporate into your menu. Be sure to speak with your Event Manager to discuss your options.

Yes! All five of our Charleston venues have on-site access to our commercial-grade kitchens.

A tasting experience provides a wonderful opportunity to try menu offerings from our well-seasoned chefs to tailor a customized menu to your liking. You will sample your selected items, allowing you to visualize the presentation of the menu items, as well! During this time, we will also discuss event logistics, including timeline and layout. We will definitely pop the bubbly to celebrate during your tasting, but due to the amount of food and allotted time, we will be able to discuss all other bar package details.

Your tasting template is due back to your Event Manager at least 14 days in advance so we are able to prep and discuss any customized menu items with our Culinary team prior to your tasting date. You’ll choose either a plated dinner service or a petite plate station-style dinner service. For those hosting two wonderful events with us, you will select a variety of both styles of dinner service. That is a lot of food, but with the assistance of your Event Manager, we will ensure you select the appropriate amount of food and have a well-rounded menu for both events!

This is your day, so if both you and your future spouse can join, that is ideal! From there, any planning professionals you have hired should also attend to capture all of the details and decisions made this day. Additionally, any important people in decision-making can also attend. We can host up to five individuals at a tasting. A request for additional guests can be made with your Event Manager and noted on your tasting template (up to Chef’s discretion).

If you would like to schedule a tour of your venue before or after your tasting, please reach out to your assigned Event Manager, and they will provide all details for a self-guided tour that day.
