Finally got around to visiting Europe, uh, I mean Bridgeway Station in Simpsonville. We decided to…read morecheck out the Farmers Market on a Thursday. The ambiance is based on Italy of course. It's such an unexpected sight to see from I-385. I was able to find tallow cream (which was the goal) and got to try hazelnut baklava from Sönmez Oven, LLC; it was absolutely perfect! The kiddos had a blast enjoying themselves on the AstroTurf. Also got to check out The Cannoli Hole. Would definitely return again for the market and to check out some restaurants. Happy yelping!

Unfortunately, the food was a major disappointment. The options in the food court are pizza, burgers, and ramen, The pizza would have been better from Chuck-E-Cheese, the burgers from McDonald's definitely looked better and the sushi also didn't look remotely edible enough for me to even consider trying it. I think they only have microwaves to heat up food. It was honestly disgusting.

The view over the pond with all the stars in the sky is amazing and so peaceful. There is even a stage for live music and a playground for the kiddos.

Tucked away off the campus of Clemson on a vast plot of land is the South Carolina Botanical…read moreGardens. Like some other college-affiliated gardens, this one is free of charge to all visitors. It's a bit tough to get your bearings at first since the property is really spread out, and requires quite a bit of driving to get from place to place, where first time visitors (like me) are sure to get lost along the way, even with a map of the property. I recommend starting your visit with the visitors center, carriage house, and geology museum, which are adjacent to the desert and Jurassic gardens. I tried to get intel on best places to see blooms at the visitors center, but staff weren't overly helpful in assisting where to explore, so I basically grabbed the map and drove off meandering around the back roads, winding up at the Hanover House (super friendly staff here) and the Caboose and President's gardens (some blooms in this area). Despite feeling a bit lost while exploring and encountering very few blooms, I did overall enjoy my visit to the South Carolina Botanical Gardens. I would rate it as a 3.5 out of 5 experience overall, as much of the land on property seemed not to serve much of a purpose, and you really have to spend time exploring (and getting lost) to find interesting blooms.

The venue itself is nice, clean, and has great potential for events -- so my rating is based solely…read moreon my experience with the owner, not the space. I booked the venue for 10/25, but on 10/23, things went left. Up until then, communication and everything else had been fine. However, the owner gave one of my vendors incorrect information regarding communication, which wasn't true and felt unprofessional. That's when my experience started to shift. Another thing that bothered me was being asked to pay a damage waiver, then later finding out from my decorator that the owner had been onsite during setup. When I arrived around 7:30 PM for my Halloween photoshoot, the owner was sitting outside in her car. While I was inside taking pictures, she remained nearby. Once I realized she was still there, I decided not to continue my shoot and texted my decorator to come gather her things. Once my decorator came to collect her items, the owner joined us inside and stayed there until we finished, which added to the uneasy feeling I already had. Even though the event itself was canceled and I only used the venue for a photoshoot, I still paid for full-day access and expected to feel comfortable during my rental time. The venue is beautiful, but the owner's approach and lack of professionalism really took away from what could have been a much better experience. Update to Owner's Response: First, let's talk about communication. You were being lazy -- plain and simple. You know we've been communicating through email and Facebook Messenger, and your own response to my message (which I'll gladly post) proves my point. Second, I changed my personal phone number, which I'm under no obligation to share with you, especially since we were already in contact through multiple other ways. Instead of reaching out by email or Messenger like you've always done, you chose not to contact me at all -- and then lied by saying you couldn't reach me. What's worse is you contacted my decorator first, before even attempting to message me directly, and I have receipts of you admitting it. Third, let's address the deposit situation. I was asked to pay a damage waiver while you were onsite the entire time, monitoring everything during setup and throughout the evening. That didn't sit right with me, because if you're physically present the whole time, what exactly is the waiver protecting you from? Also, when we book an event, we're paying for private use of that space during the hours listed on the contract -- not for the owner to hover or interfere. You're supposed to be on contact for emergencies, not stationed inside the venue watching over everyone like a chaperone. Lastly, I don't care if you and my decorator worked well together or if other clients like you being onsite -- I didn't ask for you to be there. My review reflects my experience, not anyone else's.

Throughout the process I felt that special attention was being given to my requests and timeframes. The owner even threw in some extras that I had not thought to ask for.

I was so pleased, that I have already booked the space for another event this year. I am always excited/grateful when supporting small business owners goes well. I can say, without a doubt, that Luxe will be my go to venue in the future.

The lady owner lives in Spartanburg but is originally from my hometown. She previously had a balloon store in Gaffney, but due to some small town issues like almost zero parking on Main Street she moved to the big neighboring city. I wondered how someone could make a good living just selling balloons. Turns out she's managed to get super well connected with any and every entity in Spartanburg. There's a kings or Queens throne ( as you prefer) thats available for rent for very special occasions. The owner delivers balloons and that gigantic beautiful chair across the upstate! Because I like this lady and her store I gave it five stars! I respect anyone who can leave a failing location, find another one, and hit it big! I recommend this one highly!
