FAQs

Question

Is the wedding ceremony at the same venue as the reception?

Answer

Yes, both the ceremony and the reception will be held at The Shorehouse at the Omni Hilton Head Oceanfront Resort

Question

Is the wedding outside?

Answer

Yes, The Shorehouse is an outdoor, covered pavilion with private beach access. If needed, we can utilize the fireplace or heaters to warm the space as the evening cools.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code is beach semi-formal: think stylish yet relaxed. For women, this may look like a sundress or beachy cocktail dress with dressy sandals, wedges, or flats. For men, this may look like dress pants with a linen shirt or other light-weight pants, including khakis, and button-up shirts, paired with boat shoes or loafers. Suit or tie is not required. Please avoid jeans, shorts, flip-flops or sneakers.

Question

Is there parking available at the venue?

Answer

Yes, there is self-parking and valet at The Omni. If you are staying onsite at The Omni, there is no need for transportation as the wedding venue is onsite too! For those staying in Palmetto Dunes, you may be close enough to walk or could opt to take advantage of the free Dunes Buggy shuttle. For those staying offsite, we would encourage you to Uber or carpool. At the gate, let the guard know you are going to the Omni for a wedding and they will provide you with a parking pass. For the other activities at the Omni, just let the guard know at the gate that you are heading to The Buoy Bar at the Omni for lunch/drinks, and they will provide you with a parking pass.

Question

When do I need to RSVP by? And how do I RSVP?

Answer

We kindly ask that you RSVP by March 25th. If you choose to RSVP digitally, you do not need to return the physical RSVP card via mail… and vice versa!

Question

Are children allowed?

Answer

Although we would love to include everyone's children, we will only be accommodating a few immediate family members at our wedding. Those children listed on the invite or if your invite says, "The Smith Family," your children are included. If your invitation does not include "and Family," please enjoy a night off and leave the little ones at home! We appreciate your understanding.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

We are only able to accommodate those listed on your invitation. We appreciate your understanding.

Question

What should I do if I don’t make it into the room block?

Answer

If you miss the deadline to reserve a room in our block, reach out to the hotel and mention our wedding anyway—they may be able to accommodate you with our discount in a room outside of our block. If not, you can find additional nearby accommodation options on our travel page.

Question

If I have additional questions, who should I reach out to?

Answer

Please reach out to either of us directly and we will be happy to help! We will continue to update this site regularly so make sure to check back closer to our wedding date! We can't wait to celebrate with you!
