About us
After planning countless Charleston trips for friends and family over the years, Palm & Proper founder, Liz Suomi, realized there was an opening for a luxury travel Destination Management Company in Charleston. Her expertise in planning and research paired with a love of the finer things make her the perfect person to plan your next Lowcountry getaway.
Liz has an extensive background in destination management, corporate travel and events since 2008. She and her family have lived in San Francisco, Singapore, and most recently New York City before settling down in Charleston in 2020.
What People Are Saying
“Earlier this year I visited Charleston with my two daughters. Because it was our first time, we reached out to Liz with Palm & Proper who enriched our trip from start to finish. From the hotel recommendations to restaurants, shopping and where to get the best latte, we loved every place and plan she gave us. We found P&P to be professional, knowledgeable, savvy and spot on for the perfect experiences!”

“This last year a group of college girlfriends, along with husbands, visited Charleston. Thanks to Liz with Palm & Proper, the trip was more than we could have ever dreamed for. She was so organized in her planning and communication with our group making the vacation stress free. From where to stay, what sites to see, restaurants, we just had to show up and enjoy! One of the highlights was our private sunset cruise. Charleston is the absolute charm of the South. It has everything! We were so grateful for Liz’s knowledge of the city and for making our vacation unforgettable. We cannot wait to come back again!”
