This will help a lot with wedding planning. Having someone to walk you through each step is not only a time-saver, but it will remove a lot of stress. Check out Smells Like Peonies or Events on the Half Shell.

Line Up a Photographer

You are going to want to document the moment for the future. A great photographer can capture a moment that you can keep forever. We suggest Paula Player Photography or Kara Stovall Photography.

A Micro Wedding in the Grand Strand, SC

Over the last several months, the need for much smaller get-togethers has increased at a dramatic pace, and weddings are no different. Elopements, “minimonies,” and micro weddings have skyrocketed in popularity as more newly engaged couples opt for significantly fewer guests. The silver lining is that Inlet Sports Lodge, in Murrells Inlet, has the ideal Myrtle Beach wedding venue for an intimate gathering and on-site catering, and of course, lodging. We have a knack for celebrations and are poised to give you the special day you deserve, no matter how many people are on your guest list. Remember, just because you and your significant other have chosen to forgo a large celebration doesn’t mean you can’t have a momentous occasion. In the meantime, as you sift through the options, we’ll share some valuable information regarding micro weddings and some factors to consider for your special day.

Myrtle Beach Wedding on the SC Grand Strand

Don’t let the size of your wedding dictate how much joy you share with each other and your guests. Understandably, you’re probably not the only person wondering, “What the heck a micro wedding?” As they’ve only recently come into the limelight. Couples around the world have drastically amended their nuptials, especially those planning a large ceremony. At its core, a micro wedding is a scaled-down version of a bigger celebration, usually with less than 30 guests. Although not all micro weddings are elopements, most elopements can be considered a micro wedding. The main distinction being that micro weddings follow traditional ceremonial guidelines, whereas elopements have little to no parameters to follow. Another option that has come about is a “minimony,” which is a preliminary celebration taking place before the official wedding. No matter your choice, Inlet Sports Lodge is here to lend a helping hand.

Myrtle Beach Wedding Packages

It’s worth noting that Inlet Sports Lodge has Myrtle Beach wedding packages that include versatile lodging options, kitchenettes in all standard rooms, and a two-part venue consisting of an elegant courtyard and club room—among other amenities. Further adding to the allure of our Myrtle Beach wedding venue is the gorgeous natural scenery that surrounds you at every turn. Be sure to request information about weddings or download our wedding information brochure. 

So Much More Than a Myrtle Beach Wedding Venue

One of the first things you’ll notice about Inlet Sports Lodge the moment you walk through the mahogany doors is that we offer so much more than a Myrtle Beach wedding venue. We’ll help create an unforgettable experience for you and your guests while also providing a seamless transition from celebration to slumber. From on-site dining to a wide range of lodging options, choosing Inlet Sports Lodge for your micro wedding may be the easiest decision you make this year. For more information or celebration inquiries, please reach out to us online or call 877-585-9360.
