St Simons???? Tybee?? or Savannah?

carinaandrich

Alright! im losing my mind.. started with an october wedding here in atlanta, too little too much money!! then savannah, but having a hard time with that too! how about St. Simons- I habe found a woman who does elopements, 600 bucks photography 600 for 2 hours, some very nice places for good pics, beach, water, trees, moss... We can rent a home for the weekend- problem is Where are the nice restaurants? Id like an upscale dinning experience after our ceremony- probably about 10 people.. should we go to sea island? ocean lodge looks nice.. Any ideas, comments or suggestions about a Tybee or St Simmons elopement-wedding??

Thank you All- you have been a great help!!

The Cloister on Sea Island is an extremely nice place, if you're looking for luxe. It's pricey. I think they have a dining area. We stayed there once on my grandpa's company dime for a convention when I was like 9. 

There are also several nice places to eat in Savannah, like Ruth's Chris Steak House. It is only about 30-45 mins from Tybee, not sure about St. Simon's.  You just aren't going to find a whole lot of luxury on the beach. It's going to be more casual stuff for beach goers, although I haven't been out there in like a year so maybe something nicer has popped up (doubt it). 

Have you looked at Fernandia/Amelia Island? There is a Ritz there, and there are several upscale seafood places there.

we decided on a small ceremony in savannah.. looking for a nice park or place- dining options are good as well as hotel- also found a wonderful elope service- 123elope.com Emie is helping with planning, photos, venue, pretty much all of it.. then we're having a dinner reception upon returning to atlanta for all the friends- feeling good about it!
