Planning Your Destination Wedding

Destination Paradise: Planning Your Destination Wedding, Family Reunion & Meeting

Invite your family, friends or co-workers to an event at the Brunswick Islands and they will come. Can you imagine a better destination for a wedding, family reunion or other special event? Not only is the location a big draw for people, our amenities are some of the best on the mid-Atlantic coast.

Destination weddings are a growing trend for couples. The Brunswick Islands is in a central location – why not have all of your guests meet at the beach for the wedding of a lifetime? We are easily accessible from Wilmington International Airport in Wilmington, North Carolina and from Myrtle Beach International Airport in South Carolina – about 45 minutes in either direction – the Brunswick Islands is in the middle. The Brunswick Islands has everything you need to plan the wedding of your dreams. Whether you are looking for a formal church wedding – or you want to do something non-traditional and kick off your shoes for a romantic wedding by the sea, it’s your choice. Wedding officiants will arrange a cozy little patio courtyard ceremony or travel to the wedding location of your choice. Couples can choose to have a specialized wedding service incorporating their own personality and character, or they can have the officiants put together an appropriate ceremony.

Accommodations and event space are available to suit any function. Rental homes, hotels, motels and resorts are available for family reunions or wedding guests. Choose a large conference center or a tented beach event. All possibilities become a reality in the Brunswick Islands. There are quite a few restaurants and golf course clubhouses in the area that can serve a medium to large wedding reception or party.

Sea Trail Golf Resort & Conference Center at Sunset Beach has more than 70,000 square feet of meeting and function space, which makes it the largest conference center on the North Carolina coast. Sea Trail has several locations within the property to choose from including a poolside venue, the Jones/Byrd Clubhouse and the Pavilion & Gardens facility. In addition, Sea Trail offers a variety of conference services, including audio-visual services and material deliveries. Sea Trail also offers team building retreats where their staff will organize beach olympics, photo scavenger hunts, volleyball tournaments and more for your group.

For smaller groups, there are also meeting facilities at area hotels and motels. If you are looking to make your wedding or event a truly unique experience, the Brunswick Islands offers a selection of event locations that are a little bit different than the standard meeting space.

Check the online Business Directory for more information on Event Planning and Wedding Services, Catering and Gourmet Foods, Restaurants, Golf Courses, Real Estate Sales & Rentals and Accommodations resources available in our area. Many photographers in the area will be happy to shoot your wedding or special event at the beach, resort, church or wherever you decide.
