Descendants of the original family planted the famous oak all\u00e9e we can still see today and were also among the founding fathers of the USA.\u00a0 The brick mansion that stands on the property today was actually built in the 1930s by the Stone family, who purchased the property around that time, and operated a farm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today, Boone Hall is a celebrated wedding venue but it also hosts many other events beloved by Charleston locals, such as the Strawberry Festival, Fright Nights, Wine Under the Oaks, Black History Month celebrations, a Gullah Christmas concert, and more.\u00a0 Beyond being a Charleston wedding venue, it is a working farm as well as a wonderful place to visit and explore to learn more about the history of Charleston and its plantations.*<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With its incredible scenery, beautiful mansion, and perfect set up for a wedding, Boone Hall has been home to many a nuptial event.\u00a0 Many couples particularly like to choose this venue because it was featured in the classic romance movie <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Notebook<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0 The mansion is used for Ali\u2019s family summer home!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the years at Dodeline, we\u2019ve had the opportunity
