LOWCOUNTRY ELEGANCE
The Art of Entertaining with Megan Pinckney Rutherford
T
here’s a special kind of magic in the
way Megan Pinckney Rutherford
entertains. With a life that moves
seamlessly between the historic charm
of Charleston and the vibrant energy of
Columbia, her gatherings are equal parts
elevated, effortless, and infused with the
warmth of tradition. Whether hosting an
intimate crab crack on the marsh or an
elegant soirée with signature cocktails and
candlelight, Megan creates experiences
that linger long after the last guest departs.
As our Spring 2025 contributing editor, Megan shares her
approach to hosting—one that’s deeply rooted in the
beauty of the Lowcountry, thoughtful details, and a
signature element of surprise.
ENTERTAINING IN TWO CITIES
For Megan, the way she entertains shifts naturally
depending on where she is. In Columbia, South Carolina,
social gatherings often center around themed dinner
parties with her close-knit group of friends, or political
events she hosts alongside her husband. There, each
event feels fresh, lively, and tailored to the moment.
