Travel Note
The Watercolor Community
We highly recommend staying within the WaterColor community, as all of our wedding events will be taking place there throughout the weekend. WaterColor is very walkable and easy to navigate, with access to a complimentary trolley that makes getting around simple and convenient. Many of the rental homes come with bikes and golf carts to get around. Staying within the community will allow you to fully enjoy the weekend without needing to worry about transportation. Ride share services such as Uber and Lyft can be limited and less reliable in the 30A area, especially during busy times and late evenings. For this reason, we strongly encourage guests to stay in WaterColor whenever possible to ensure the easiest and most enjoyable experience.
Travel Note
Vacation Rentals
We recommend booking your accommodations through vacation rental platforms such as Airbnb, VRBO, Dune Vacation Rentals, or 360 Blue. These sites offer a wide variety of homes and cottages throughout the area, making it easy to find options that fit your group size and preferences. We suggest booking early, as availability can be limited, particularly during peak seasons along 30A.
