Whether you’re planning a casual wedding or something more traditional, Wild Dunes is one of the best wedding venues in the Charleston area. The renown Isle of Palms resort was voted one of the Top 500 Hotels in the World by Travel + Leisure Magazine, and offers one of South Carolina’s top rated golf courses as well as tennis courts, a full spa, and beach access…all sure to please your out of town guests!
The resort has several great venues, as well as a team of in-house florists, wedding planners, and caterers, and Wild Dunes is happy to host your ceremony and reception. While Wild Dunes does not recommend having your ceremony directly on the beach, you and your wedding photographer are invited to take as many pictures on the beach as you’d like, and all of Wild Dunes’ scenic venues will be a gorgeous backdrop for your wedding photography.
Best described as “Lowcountry Elegant,” the new Sweetgrass Pavilion comfortably hosts 350 guests and is only a short walk from Wild Dunes’ main resort accommodations. This spacious venue has beautiful outdoor terraces, which offer great views and fantastic photo ops for you and your guests.
Open seasonally, the Grand Pavilion is another great Wild Dunes venue. The picturesque covered gazebo offers panoramic ocean views, beach access, outdoor ceremonies, and amazing scenery for your wedding photography.
Also check out the picturesque Wild Dunes croquet lawns! Ideal for smaller, family weddings, these spaces are “nestled in nature,” and will provide dramatic ocean views, open spaces, and unique character, all of which will enrich your wedding photography.
