For many
couples, getting married in the off-season (from November to the end of
February) offers many great advantages! For
one thing, the temperatures are much more pleasant that those sultry summer
and autumn months. There is little chance of the stray hurricane coming your
way, or more likely, the Carolina rainy season uncertainties that accompany
an outdoor wedding. Our off season weather is surprisingly nice!
Another good
reason is cost. Busy season hotel or resort rates can sometimes be quite expensive,
but the costs associated with the months considered "off season" can be
drastically lower! You will find a huge variety of beach rental houses
available as well, for costs that anyone could afford! Head over to the
links on our Brunswick
Islands link to check out resort and rental rates....
Imagine
yourself in your own beach house for a week, with miles of uniterupted sandy
beach all to yourselves! This is an incurable romantic's dream come
true.....
Imagine the
beach in the morning, as the sun rises from the early morning ocean,
watching the morning "pelican patrol" making their rounds with you
(and some unlucky fish!) as the
only witness.

Visit (or
be) an early dawn fisherman, with miles and miles of beach all to yourself!
The numbers
of vacationers are much reduced, meaning greater privacy for intimate wedding
services in places that you would never have to yourself otherwise! If
you've ever tried to drive through some ocean front areas in the summer,
you'll know what I mean!
With the
average off season temperatures still being quite comfortable, it makes
sense to consider having your wedding take place without worrying about
overheated guests, the high costs of venues or accommodations, summer
traffic or travel hassles.
And of
course, the Carolinas are still just the same beautiful, historic, and
special places they always are, only quieter! Just ask the owners of any of the fine B&B's
in Wilmington or Southport. Or at any of the (finally) peaceful resorts
nestled on the quiet, off season beaches along our sandy coastline. It's the
time of year many of us like the best!
I'll be waiting for you!
(Shhh! Just
don't tell everybody!)

An off season elopement or small and intimate wedding might be just the
ticket for budget minded couples! The tourists are gone, the prices are
cheap, and the weather is still fine! If privacy on an awesome, sandy beach
is what you crave, contact me for ideas!
Even though we travel and attend some workshops and specialized training as
our busy season winds down, we may also offer you some special prices this
time of year for both officiant and photography, so please inquire!
