  • The city is easily navigable from downtown Charleston, thanks to the free shuttle service and buses that run to most areas. And where public transportation doesn't reach, ridesharing and car rental businesses pick up the slack.

  • Charleston, SC, has something for you to do every day of the week, but it really comes alive on weekends. Take an hour-long ghost tour, visit an art museum, and then walk to the beach. With entertainment planned for your dining event, guests will stay engaged and have a good time.

How to Plan a Must-Attend Restaurant Event

Choosing an ideal private dining room, creating the perfect menu, and being creative will help you pull off an outstanding dining event. Giggster takes care of the first stage, with hundreds of private rooms on our website, leaving you to plan a great dinner party.

Plan your Event – The first step when renting a venue is to confirm its availability; you want to be able to use the space when needed. If you are flexible, schedule your private dining event when the venue is less busy to get rental discounts.

Hire Professionals Unless the event is a casual after-work shindig or get-together with friends, hire a party planning team. Based on your required assistance, you can get day-of planning assistance or a team that can help you with the A to Z of planning your entire function. They will do the heavy lifting, allowing you to enjoy the special day.

Serve the Best Food Throwing a dinner party is all about the food, so find a restaurant serving delicious food. If the event is a tasting, choose a wine list that complements the meals; reserve a private dining room so the staff can create a customized event meal, including personalized dessert options.

Deliver Outstanding Service – Aside from delivering a great meal, you should provide exceptional service. Hire a mixologist to run the bar and entertain guests while mixing drinks.
