The Space
Agapae Oaks is an enchanting, historic Lowcountry wedding venue near Beaufort, South Carolina, set on 150 acres graced with ancient live oaks, pecan orchards, ponds, and large vistas of pristine marshlands. At its heart stands a historic main house dating to 1790 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and for roughly three decades Agapae Oaks has been the chosen setting for countless Lowcountry weddings and events. Bordered on two sides by undeveloped marshlands and filled with palmettos, Spanish-moss-laden oaks, and cedars, the property gives couples a genuinely breathtaking natural backdrop. That combination of a 1790 historic home, 150 marsh-bordered acres, and moss-draped live oaks makes Agapae Oaks a distinctive Beaufort choice. For couples who want an enchanting, historic Lowcountry wedding with live oaks, marsh vistas, and on-site lodging near Beaufort, Agapae Oaks is a memorable and romantic choice.
Capacity & Layout
Agapae Oaks spreads across 150 acres, giving couples abundant room to shape the day around the property’s natural beauty. Couples can set an open-air banquet against the backdrop of the historic mansion, or arrange a tented celebration out on the grounds among the live oaks and marsh views, letting the layout scale to the guest list. The mansion house on the grounds offers spacious lounge areas, sleeping arrangements, a kitchen, and a curved staircase, giving the wedding party a comfortable, characterful base. That flexibility lets couples exchange vows beneath the ancient oaks or along the marsh, then celebrate under a tent or beside the mansion, giving the day a natural flow with a genuine weather plan. That combination of 150 acres, a historic mansion, tented or open-air options, and on-site lodging suits weddings of many sizes, keeping the celebration enchanting and connected from the ceremony through the reception near Beaufort.
Amenities
Agapae Oaks pairs its scenic setting with genuinely welcoming, weekend-friendly amenities. The venue offers on-site sleeping accommodations for up to 22 guests for a reasonable flat weekend rate, so the wedding party can stay right on the property and turn the celebration into a relaxed Lowcountry getaway, and the Poggi and Mix family have lovingly restored and cared for this blend of nature and history. The 1790 mansion, the ancient moss-draped oaks, the pecan orchards, the ponds, and the pristine marsh vistas give photographers an enchanting, quintessentially Lowcountry range of backdrops. For the entertainment, the open grounds and tented settings give a wedding DJ scenic space to build sound and lighting into, so the reception stays lively beneath the live oaks and marsh views of a historic Beaufort-area estate.
Location & Getting There
