While we cannot guarantee the weather, October is generally a lovely time of year at Wild Dunes Resort on Isle of Palms, South Carolina. Guests can expect mild temperatures, gentle ocean breezes, and less humidity compared to the summer months. Daytime temperatures typically range from the mid-70s to upper 70s°F (around 23–26°C), with evenings cooling to the low 60s°F (approximately 15–17°C). Light layers are recommended, particularly for any outdoor events held in the evening. Though October is one of the drier months, there is always a slight chance of coastal rain, so we suggest checking the local forecast as the date approaches.
The dress code is semi-formal. We kindly ask guests to dress in cocktail or garden party attire that feels polished but comfortable. For women, this could mean a midi or knee-length dress, or a jumpsuit in a soft fabric. For men, a suit or blazer with dress pants and a button-down shirt (ties optional) is perfect. Please keep in mind that some parts of the celebration may take place outdoors, so we encourage thoughtful layers for cooler coastal breezes in the evening.
Please RSVP by August 15, 2025. This deadline allows us to finalize details with our caterers and venue. We kindly ask that all guests respond by this date, as we may not be able to accommodate late responses. Thank you so much for helping us plan with ease — we can’t wait to celebrate with you!
We kindly ask that guests arrive by 5:00 PM.
Our ceremony will take place at the beautiful Indigo Room & Rooftop, located on the 6th floor of the Sweetgrass Inn at Wild Dunes Resort. 📍 5757 Palm Blvd, Isle of Palms, SC 29451 This rooftop space offers breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and the Ravenel Bridge leading into downtown Charleston.
No need! The ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing will all take place in the same venue — the Indigo Room & Rooftop — so you won’t need to travel anywhere between events.
The reception will also be held at the Indigo Room & Rooftop — no shuttles or transfers necessary. The space will transition from ceremony to cocktail hour to dinner and dancing seamlessly.
We kindly ask that guests refrain from taking photos during our ceremony. We're having an unplugged ceremony so that everyone can be fully present for the moment we say “I do.” Our professional photographer will be capturing everything, and we promise to share the beautiful photos afterward! Once the ceremony concludes, feel free to snap away during cocktail hour, dinner, and dancing — we’d love to see the day through your eyes too!
We'll be uploading professional photos and guest snapshots to our Zola wedding website in the weeks following the wedding.
