Why Adelaide Is a Top Outdoor Wedding Venue in Inman, SC

When couples arrive at Adelaide Events Venue, they often pause for a moment. There is open sky above the gardens, white details throughout the property, and space that feels calm and intentional. We created Adelaide as an outdoor wedding venue where ceremonies and receptions feel thoughtfully placed, not forced, and where a historic setting supports a well-paced celebration.

Adelaide is considered a top outdoor wedding venue in Inman, South Carolina because it offers a thoughtfully designed seven-acre property with formal gardens, multiple ceremony locations, covered outdoor spaces, and a restored historic farmhouse. The layout supports smooth transitions, guest comfort, and outdoor celebrations in every season.

Our venue sits at 2780 Foster Road in Inman, South Carolina, near Lake Bowen. The seven-acre property includes a restored Victorian farmhouse from 1903, formal gardens, and covered outdoor structures that allow your wedding day to stay outdoors while remaining comfortable for guests.

Garden ceremony options that feel purposeful

Our garden features a wide fescue lawn surrounded by hydrangeas, gardenias, lilacs, elephant ears, roses, and mature trees. Couples can select from several ceremony locations based on guest count, season, and natural light.

One ceremony location many couples choose is our iron gazebo wrapped in evergreen jasmine vine. Set within the woods, it blooms in spring and creates a defined ceremony space without closing off the surroundings. Three fountains run through the garden, adding a gentle water sound that carries naturally during vows. Mature trees provide shade during warmer months, and evening light settles softly across the lawn.

Covered spaces that keep the celebration outdoors

All ceremonies and receptions are held outdoors, with coverage built in where it matters. Our pavilion serves as a covered ceremony and reception space and can host up to 120 guests. Open sides keep airflow moving, while permanent drapery, roll-down sides, and space heaters are available during cooler months.

The covered dance floor is nearby and features a clear top that allows natural light during the day and visibility in the evening. It offers protection from the weather while keeping guests connected to the outdoor setting.

A Farmhouse Designed With Purpose

Our Victorian farmhouse, built in 1903, is reserved for getting ready and portraits. Original floors and ceilings create a classic backdrop for photos. The upstairs bridal suite includes dressing areas, full-length mirrors, and a long dressing table for hair and makeup. This space is not used for ceremonies or receptions, allowing the day to stay focused outdoors.

What Is Included With Your Wedding

Your booking includes white ceremony chairs, reception tables, and Chiavari chairs. Couples also have access to our Something Borrowed Room, which offers linens, chargers, votives, and decor pieces. Venue setup and pack up are included, and our team is available before, during, and after your event to support the flow of the day.

We provide indoor restrooms, including one that is wheelchair accessible, along with a private, well-lit parking lot. The layout allows guests to move comfortably from ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner without confusion or long walks.

Exclusive coordination through Evergreen Magnolia Events

All weddings in Adelaide require a professional day-of coordinator through our exclusive partner Evergreen Magnolia Events. This partnership allows us to focus on the venue itself while ensuring timelines, vendors, and transitions are handled by a team that knows the property well.

Evergreen Magnolia offers day of coordination, partial planning, and full planning services. Their work includes timeline creation, vendor management on the wedding day, rehearsal direction, and decor setup and cleanup assistance. Full planning services include vendor booking, budget planning, and ongoing planning meetings.

Rehearsal options

Each wedding includes one complimentary rehearsal hour scheduled about six weeks in advance based on availability. When the day before is not available, the rehearsal may take place on another weekday.

Couples may also reserve a six-hour rehearsal and dinner rental the evening before the wedding. This option accommodates up to 40 guests and allows decor and personal items to be loaded in ahead of time.

Location and Photo Opportunities

Adelaide Events Venue is located near Lake Bowen in Inman, South Carolina. In addition to the gardens and gazebo, couples often use the open back field for portraits. This area offers wide views and a quieter backdrop away from guest spaces. The field is reserved for photos and overflow parking, not ceremonies or receptions.

Conclusion

Adelaide is designed for couples who want an outdoor wedding venue with structure and clarity. Historic details, white gardens, and covered outdoor spaces come together to support thoughtful planning and a relaxed wedding day.
