A new era has begun for the venue formerly known as The Arch, nestled in the heart of Moncks Corner. This hidden gem, now under the ownership of Sasha and Bryce Gregory, is poised to build upon its storied history while adding a fresh touch of passion and expertise to the events it hosts. Purchased in September, the venue has already captured the hearts of the new owners — and for good reason.
For Sasha and Bryce, 108 W Main is more than just a business venture — it’s a deeply personal endeavor. The couple tied the knot at the venue in 2022, making their connection to the space uniquely intimate. “This place holds a special place in our hearts,” Sasha shared. “It’s where we said, ‘I do,’ and now we want to create that same magic for others.”
Sasha’s journey to this point is a story of resilience and creativity. She moved here from Puerto Rico 17 years ago, balancing her early days with a passion for photography. What began as a side hustle blossomed into a career 15 years ago when Sasha transitioned to wedding photography full-time. Bryce, a former Mount Pleasant Police Department officer, joined her mission five years ago, stepping into the world of wedding videography. When Bryce retired from law enforcement, the couple made a bold move: they purchased Complete Wedding + Events, a business that specializes in wedding services. That experience laid the foundation for their leap into venue ownership.
Their journey eventually led them to 108 W Main, a venue tucked away in Moncks Corner with a charm that isn’t immediately visible from the road. Visitors are often stunned by its beauty and cozy atmosphere, reminiscent of downtown Charleston. Built in the 1940s by the Spann family, the venue has always been steeped in love and tradition. In fact, the Spann family’s daughter celebrated her own wedding there, starting a legacy of romance that Sasha and Bryce are eager to continue.
What sets 108 W Main apart from other venues is its comprehensive approach. While they don’t restrict couples from bringing in outside vendors, Sasha and Bryce offer an optional one-stop-shop experience through their sister corporation, Complete Wedding + Events. From photography and videography to linens and even security, they’ve thought of everything to make wedding planning as seamless as possible.
“We’ve been in the wedding industry for years, so we understand the challenges couples face,” Sasha said. “Our goal is to eliminate those stress points and make their experience as joyful as possible.”
Although weddings are a major focus, 108 W Main isn’t limited to just one type of event. The venue’s versatility makes it an ideal location for all kinds of gatherings, from intimate birthday celebrations to corporate events.
As they settle into their new role, Sasha and Bryce are also eager to give back to the community. In the coming months, they plan to launch an exciting contest: one lucky couple will win a free wedding at the venue.
For Sasha and Bryce, owning 108 W Main is more than just running a business — it’s about creating memories, celebrating love and building a legacy that honors the venue’s history. With their passion, expertise and genuine love for what they do, the future of 108 W Main looks brighter than ever.
Keep an eye out for updates and announcements, and if you’re looking for an unforgettable event experience, 108 W Main might just be the perfect spot. After all, where better to celebrate love than a place built on it?
