Warm beaches, sandy toes, and the sounds of waves crashing on the shoreline make an absolutely picture-perfect background for any blushing bride! BUT….. Planning a Tybee Wedding (or any wedding) can be tricky business, so let us help you out!
Choosing a Venue
Of course getting married directly on the beach is always an option but what if you are the type of bride that does not want to take a chance with the weather, go barefoot, or want to share a space with other beach goers? Have a look at The Tybee Island Wedding Chapel, truly an event space that was specifically constructed to be an all in one venue. You can prepare for your big day in the luxurious custom built Bridal Suite which overlooks the estate grounds. The Groom’s Quarters feature a flat screen TV, a view of the tidewater creek, and a wet bar. For the ceremony, the Sanctuary is the perfect back drop for an elegant Chapel Wedding. Three large Antique Gold chandeliers and the original hardwood floors allow you to decorate as minimally or elaborately as you would like. The Grand Ballroom and Cocktail Lounge add touches of grandeur necessary for an unforgettable dream reception!
Hiring a Photographer
Unlike the work of your other wedding vendors (music, flower arrangements, cake), photographs aren’t things you can hear, smell, taste or even see at first — you don’t really know what you’re getting until after the fact. That means careful research and selectiveness regarding professional skills, artistic style and personal demeanor are extra-important when choosing your photographer. There are many photographers to choose from to shoot your special day but our top picks are Travis Sayre and Shannon Christopher. Always professional and courteous, these artists know how to capture the perfect moment. Click on their names in the text for a gallery of their work.
Not Good at Planning?
Some people micromanage and others have a difficult time figuring out where to hang a painting in the bathroom. If you’re in the latter category you may want to try hiring a wedding planner in your wedding plans. They are the ONLY wedding company in the area with a dedicated professional florist, carpenter, officiant and event designer on staff for your event. They strive and succeed in making each and every client’s experience both captivating and unique!
