How Can You Host an Elegant Pharma Dinner in Magnolia Ballroom at Kersey House Charleston?
Planning a pharma dinner means more than finding a table and menu. It’s about creating a setting where conversations flow easily, service feels attentive but not intrusive, and the food reflects the level of detail your guests expect. At Kersey House, our Magnolia Ballroom combines historic character with modern comfort so your program can move forward without distraction.
To host an elegant pharma dinner at Kersey House’s Magnolia Ballroom, plan within its 1,200-square-foot space featuring hardwood floors, a built-in bar, and veranda access. The event includes catering by the Nico Romo Hospitality Group, professional staff coordination, and convenient parking, creating a seamless setting for focused presentations and fine dining.
Magnolia Ballroom as the centerpiece
The Magnolia Ballroom is a 1,200 square foot space with hardwood floors, a cathedral ceiling, and a built in bar. French doors open onto the veranda, giving your guests a change of scene between program segments or during breaks. The room accommodates up to 80 guests seated, making it well sized for a pharma dinner that values both intimacy and impact.
Food and beverage led by French culinary expertise
All catering is handled exclusively by the Nico Romo Hospitality Group. Chef Nico Romo, the only French Master Chef in South Carolina, brings a European standard of detail to Southern dining. He is joined by Executive Chef Remi Lorgoulloux, a member of the Académie Culinaire de France, with a background in pastry and fine dining throughout France. Menus highlight high quality ingredients and can be customized in consultation with our team.
Staffing that keeps your dinner on schedule
A pharma dinner works best when every element runs on time. Our team includes event managers, captains, bartenders, and waitstaff who know how to pace seated service alongside a program. Courses arrive without delay, transitions happen smoothly, and speakers never compete with dinner service. This level of coordination means you can focus on your guests and agenda while we manage the flow in the room.
