Wow. This was my first time here and I attended a high tea special event with my Hilton head women's association. Words cannot fully describe the poor experience, so I invite you to take a close look at these photos. The food was carelessly piled on the leaning tiers, the items were seemingly from a discount grocery store, and our table was initially given one pot of tea that did not serve all of us. The tea sandwiches were stale as they were already put on our plates before our arrival. The cheese was cut from slices that were maybe from a deli? There were a few pieces of fruit and no serving utensils. We were finally served 2 choices of tea - a fruity black tea and a decaf hibiscus tea. Both were strong floral flavors and no other tea was available. I have been to many, many teas and this was awful. I was shaking my head as I left and parted with $62 for this lackluster event. Note: I rarely give poor ratings publicly. I usually share them directly but this was so off the charts for an expensive venue.

The grounds are beautiful. Nice and secluded at the end of a long drive with horses and wildlife. The event planners do a phenomenal job with the decor. The food is amazing!!

WOW! Look no further, Hewitt Oaks is your sophisticated, elegant, and timeless venue that really covers it all...planning support and catering in the stunning Lowcountry. We were looking for a venue that accentuated the natural beauty of the area and was capable of providing a wonderful experience for our special day. We had our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, reception, and dancing all outside under the angel oaks. The Hewitt Oaks team took our vision and brought it to life! I am not sure if we got more compliments on the food (which was delicious), the venue including the landscaping, or the overall experience the Hewitt Oaks team provided. We worked with Madi Campbell whose unyielding patience, guidance, and support during the planning process was unparalleled. The Hewitt Oaks team made our wedding dreams come true and we will forever cherish the memories they helped us make on our special day.

Attended the Barbie event Aug 18, 2023. The venue is beautiful and the band was great. The wine has gone down in quality from very nice down to Woodbridge (really)? The food was mediocre and heavy. The most annoying was the temperature inside! What happened to A/C ? And not even a ceiling fan! Our party of 6 had to leave early dripping with perspiration! Not much fun!

We started using Hewitt Oaks for the Holiday dinners they offer for pick up-then we attended the Dinner Theatre in September. The setting is incredible and the staff is 5 Star. Chef Christopher and his wife Brittany are an incredible team and very entertaining. We experienced the Chef's Table on July 14th and could not believe the QUALITY and PRESENTATION of all the courses and service. It was a 9 course dinner with wine pairings that were incredible. Crystal in Operations is professional and is such a joy to work with. Hewitt Oaks is the BEST of SOUTH CAROLINA in our opinion! The servers are polite and attentive and we enjoyed our time with Chef's nephew Will. The bonus for us is at the end of the evening we get to say hello to Brûlée' the mini donkey! XO

Seems like a very nice venue. My granddaughter took baking/cooking class there and enjoyed it very much.

Their events are fun, inventive and right on theme. Food is great. Signature cocktails are great. There is a reason they sell out quickly!

This venue is absolutely gorgeous. The location is very secluded and the trees are great, however, the owner and the policies in place make it so I could not recommend this venue.The owner will treat your wedding as though it is HER event, not YOUR wedding day. My good friend was taken in by promises made before a non refundable deposit of thousands of dollars. After the non refundable deposit was made, the owner changed tune on a lot of things. My friend had been promised the ability to do her own flowers. She did not ask for a discount, and would still be paying the venue's flower person, but bring her own. This was fine at first. A few months before the wedding, it was suddenly very much not okay. My friend felt threatened that the whole wedding would be kicked out of the venue if a single flower of her own was brought in.I cannot stress enough how obsessive the owner was over this. If this had been the only issue, that would be one thing. My friend was not allowed to contact the officiant required to be used until 2 days before the wedding. This made for some very devastating communication errors, and the ceremony wasn't as perfect as it could have been. A very important document was also left behind in the bathroom.The wedding coordinator originally working with my friend left the company, and my friend was not informed of this and introduced to the new coordinator until a month before her wedding. There were numerous communication troubles with this venue; these are only a few examples.Please save yourself the headache. The owner is extremely controlling and we were surprised that my friend could choose her own wedding dress. There are many other beautiful options in the Savannah area that will let you have your day how you want itEdit: I noticed the owner responded. I was actually shown the proposal, which allowed my friend to bring her own flowers. I was then shown the email where you redacted your offer and gaslit my friend saying you would never allow her to bring her own flowers. I'm afraid the owner may be misinformed on what she offers, or very forgetful. These are both not qualities I would want in a venue owner!

Had our wedding here last month and it was everything we wanted it to be and more. The venue is just so unbelievably gorgeous! From the very beginning to the end, the Hewitt Oaks staff were incredible. We had a year after we signed with them before our wedding and during that time, they sent us cute Christmas packages, date night gifts and more. They are just very thoughtful and genuine people that truly care about their couples.The staff are amazing, the food is to die for, the venue and planning is incredible. You can’t go wrong! I feel like Hewitt Oaks is a hidden gem that will take off in the next few years. They also provided a recommended vendors list that had some seriously incredible people on it. We relied on Hewitt Oaks for pretty much everything they could do in house- even the recs of the other vendors they couldn’t provide! I had my dream wedding with wonderful vendors and people to share it with. Truly thankful to have found Hewitt Oaks as our wedding venue. ❤️❤️

Best wedding venue in the Lowcountry! Beautiful scenery, top notch planners and staff, and the food is delicious! If you want the picture perfect wedding or corporate event, look no further than Hewitt Oaks.

An absolutely beautiful place to hold a wedding. I went to one there last week. It was outside on the grounds. The gnats were awful, but that’s really the only negative thing I could say. The reception was inside/outside and the space was perfect. The coolest thing was that there was an artist painting the scene live. That was cool!
