Question

Where are the ceremony and reception taking place?

The ceremony will take place on the North Croquet Lawn at the Wild Dunes Resort. This is on the eastern-most side of The Boardwalk Inn preceding the beach. The reception will take place in the Indigo Ballroom, which is within the Wild Dunes Resort on the rooftop of The Sweetgrass Inn. The venues are within walking distance of one another.

The ceremony will be outdoors. The reception venue at the Indigo Rooftop offers indoor space for dining with access to a large rooftop terrace.

Can I bring a plus one?

Our wedding celebration is RSVP only, and we will be able to accommodate only those listed on your wedding invitation.

Question

Do you have a hotel block for guests? Where do you recommend I stay?

Answer

We have hotel blocks at the Sweetgrass Inn and Boardwalk Inn, both located on property (EXPIRES 2/28/2025). Both hotels have ocean views, restaurants, shopping, and pools. The Sweetgrass Inn: Overlooks the expansive resort pools and hot tubs. Our reception will take place in this building. The Boardwalk Inn: Overlooks the adult-only pool as well as the beach-side Grand Pavilion pools. This hotel is adjacent to our ceremony. If you are looking for more of a vacation rental feel, the resort also has those available for rent. A separate link is provided with details on the "accommodations" tab of this website. By staying at any Wild Dunes property, you will have access to all amenities. Please visit the "Accommodations" tab and use the listed discount code: 3i779j

Question

Will there be food?

Answer

Following our wedding ceremony, we will be serving passed hors d'oeuvres accompanied by an open bar at the cocktail hour. A plated dinner will be served during the following reception and the open bar will remain all evening.

Question

Should I bring a gift to your destination wedding?

Answer

Since you are traveling for our wedding, making the trip is a gift in itself - physical gifts are absolutely not necessary! If you do choose to browse our wedding registry, any items on the list can be shipped directly to our home address.

Question

Will transportation be provided between the hotel, ceremony, and reception?

Answer

All lodging and events are on site and do not require transportation! If you or someone in your party may have difficulty walking across the resort, we will have limited golf carts accessible to drive those individuals to and from events.

Question

Do you have any recommendations for where to eat, points of interest, or things to do?

Answer

Yes! We recommend visiting the "Things To Do" page of our website, where we've compiled a list of local hot spots and fun things to do in the area.

Question

Do you recommend I rent a car?

Answer

The resort has dining, shopping, beach access, and all amenities on site so a rental car would not be necessary. If you are looking to do a day trip to explore downtown Charleston, ridesharing services may be more cost effective.

Question

Are there any other events that I should know about around the wedding?

Answer

We will be hosting Welcome Drinks Saturday March 29th @ The Boardwalk Inn Pool. Please update your RSVP accordingly.
