Local Events Planner Mitchell Crosby of JMC Charleston is featured in two National Magazines--in the November issue of Every Day with Rachel Ray, as well as the November Issue of Town & Country.

Mitchell gave the editors of Every Day With Rachel Ray an insider’s tour of Charleston from the farmer’s market to the best galleries, restaurants, hotels and ‘in’ places for people ‘from off’ to go. Writer John Kessler followed Mitchell for two days, taking in the sights and sounds, and absorbing the Low country culture. “I would never have seen the things that I did in last two days without Mitchell,” says Kessler. He makes me want to return and explore the richness of this city and the beauty that is the Low country.”

Crosby was also featured in Town & Country’s 160 Years of Dazzling Events Party Issue in On The Town – Party Venues. The segment featured the William Aiken House, a favorite site for Charleston parties. Crosby says “celebrating Charleston-style is celebrating with friends and neighbors, and that is what makes the William Aiken House such a spectacular location for a party, whether it is an intimate party or a grand reception for 600, it feels as though you were entertaining at home.”

Assembling a multi-talented and vibrant team, the Charleston native integrates his extensive knowledge of the Low country and its resources to craft settings that sparkle with the nuances of the classic Charleston lifestyle wrapped in great party chic. He structures sites that speak to the senses, drawing host and guest into an environment shaped exclusively for them.

Offering comprehensive destination management services that include event planning and design, styling, catering, personalized corporate amenities, tours and private venue management; Mitchell brings a wealth of expertise to each endeavor. And his decision to form his own company, JMC Charleston, in July of 2004 marked a natural progression in a stellar career.

“Charleston is the most hospitable city in America…and we as Charlestonians love things beautifully presented,” says Crosby. The overall tone of his events, whether lavish or casual, aims to preserve those qualities through his flair for weaving that singular kind of “beauty and grace of entertaining” into food and décor. In addition to a phenomenal memory for details and preferences, he taps his connections throughout the world to supply the specialty items that distinguish his events.
