We recommend requesting the ride at least 45 minutes prior to the start of the Ceremony to ensure timely arrival. For guests driving to the ceremony, there is ample parking available at Mingo Point. Uber and Lyft services are on the island.
Flight
For our guests flying in, the closest airport to the Kiawah Island Golf Resort is the Charleston International Airport (CHS). CHS is about 32 miles and around 40-45 minutes from Kiawah Island. The Resort does offer custom transportation to and from the airport at competitive rate for guests. Uber/Lyft Services are also accessible from the Airport. Return travel from Kiawah Island to the airport should be scheduled in advance - Lyft and Uber cars can be difficult to secure on short notice. The Charleston Peninsula Transportation group services Kiawah and can be used to schedule rides for the wedding and/or for Airport travel as needed - their website is here: https://charlestonpeninsulatransportation.com/service-areas/ Island Transportation Services is an alternative island car service that offers services from Kiawah to Charleston/the Airport/etc - explore more options here: https://www.island-transportation.com/pricing
