Another day, another business move! Southern Charm stars Austen Kroll and Craig Conover are teaming up for another entrepreneurial endeavour. In 2023, the duo helped launch a New York City eatery called Carriage House. Last year, they opened up about a bar in the heart of Charleston called By The Way. For their next endeavour, the boys are taking on the wedding industry.
Craig Conover and Austen Kroll will open a wedding venue in Charleston
Craig recently sat down with Interview Magazine and teased what fans can expect from Southern Charm Season 11. Craig called it a “monster season,” and then spilled the tea about the new business he and Austen are opening.
“Everyone’s going to be really excited. I haven’t felt like this in a couple years,” Craig teased of Season 11. “You get to see a lot of new chapters in people’s lives and some fresh faces. Southern Charm fans will be really happy.”
He continued, “Austen and I are opening a wedding venue in Charleston, even though we can’t stop fighting with each other all the time.”
So, what can you expect from this space? According to Craig, it’s going to be “slightly more affordable” than the average wedding venue in Charleston. He also said that it’s going to be a one-stop shop for your entire day, so your wedding guests won’t have to bounce around to multiple locations.
“It’s an all-in-one location, so you can do your ceremony, your reception, and your afterparty there,” Craig added. “Maybe I’ll get my officiant’s license.”
Although Craig is single after his highly-publicized breakup from Paige DeSorbo, he said he might even consider exchanging vows at his own venue once the time is right.
“I’m really excited to continue to challenge myself, and when the time is right, it’ll be right,” Craig said about a potential wedding at his own venue. “I think that’s way easier said than done because I’m such a fixer.”
Southern Charm is streaming on Peacock, and it’s available on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
