Day 1: Welcome To Charleston
Today Includes:
CHECK IN
Welcome to your new home away from home: Planters Inn, the sole Relais & Châteaux luxury hotel in South Carolina. This Grande Dame hotel boasts an unrivaled location in the heart of Charleston’s Historic District and wins guests over time and time again with its refined Southern style and beguiling atmosphere, not to mention the welcoming bellhops grinning ear-to-ear and nightly macarons at turndown!
SHOPPING TIME
Just steps away from Planters Inn is the historic Charleston City Market. Hop across the street and say “hello” to the talented sweetgrass basket weavers and browse through hundreds of local products, from benne wafers to local artwork to rice bead bracelets. Then, surprise your significant other with a stop at Croghan’s Jewel Box. Located just one block away on bustling King Street, this 100-year-old sparkling nook is a treasure trove of heirloom silver, estate jewelry, and classic gifts.
CHEERS
Following a sunset stroll along The Battery, cheers over champagne and a slice of the mouth-watering 12-layer Ultimate Coconut Cake in the hidden garden courtyard of Peninsula Grill. Surrounded by flickering carriage lanterns, you’ll experience one of the most romantic (and delicious) dining experiences Charleston has to offer.

Is there anything more romantic than taking a stroll past Charleston’s hidden gardens and secret alleyways? Begin the day with Bulldog Tours and hear all of the stories Charleston’s historic streets have to tell via your expert guide.
GO GREEN
Step into the tropical-inspired oasis that is Basic Kitchen and enjoy local produce, whole grains and legumes, and a rainbow of spices and vinegars.
WEDLUXE INSIDER TIP: The Watermelon Whisperer and Southern Exposure cocktails are two favorites.
STROLL
When booking a Planters Inn hotel suite online, guests can enjoy complimentary use of a luxurious new BMW 750i or X5 during their stay. Hop in and take a drive to Middleton Place, the placid oasis that offers an inviting step back in time, where the air is sweet with the scent of tea olives and roses, and branches of broad-trunk trees sway gently with the river breeze.
