Planning a wedding can be a very stressful event. So many decisions go into designing the ideal day, from picking out the perfect dress and venue to hiring the best caterer and florist, that it can be quite overwhelming. While some wedding planners and do-it-yourself couples agonize over the choices due to limited resources, others in certain cities may have an easier time crafting the perfect way to say “I do.”
WalletHub compared over 180 cities around the country to determine which are the best places to get married, based on factors like number of venues and wedding chapels, average costs and number of vendors like florists, caterers and cake shops. Among the list are two cities in South Carolina , including one that made the Top 20:
- No.17: Columbia
- No. 38: Charleston
Not only is Columbia the best city in the Palmetto State to get married, but it’s one of the absolute best in the entire country, largely thanks to its high marks in the facilities & services category. It was even recognized as having some of the most wedding chapels and churches per capita in the U.S.
