Wrightsville Beach, NC Destination Wedding! PLEASE PLEASE HELP!

Okay, here's the deal. My fiance' and I had originally planned to get married in our hometown of Charlotte, NC. We have already booked our venue and DJ....but as we got further into our planning, we have gotten bombarded with family issues and added stressors. We have realized that this wedding we have half planned is not the wedding for us and are working to get our deposits back.

That leads us to where we are at now, instead of the original guest list of 75 we've cut it back to a small gathering of 20 and are wanting to have the wedding at Wrightsville Beach, NC. It will only include our original bridal party and immediate family, and since they would be traveling we will pay for their two night stay.

I need ideas or suggestions of places that would be reasonable in price. We're looking to keep it under $2500 if possible for the condo/room rentals. If anyone has ANY suggestions or ideas please let me know. Our wedding is September 30th and I'm sure all of you can imagine how stressed you'd be if you realized two months before your wedding you had to change everything. So anything will help. Thanks so much ladies!!

    Did you look at the Holiday Sunspree?  I am not sure what their rates are but it is a very nice hotel right on the beach.  There are also a ton of houses that you can rent but I don't have personal experience with any of them.

    Try Blockade Runner that is on Wrightsville. They have the hotel rooms but also have a cottage they rent out. I have stayed there multiple times and have really liked it.
