Nice vacation/wedding spots, south, within driving distance?

Original post by Shorty McBride

As some of you already know, we're having a destination wedding. A small group of people, intimate, yada yada yada.

We originally thought Florida, but someone that is very close to me is uncomfortable flying, and plane tickets will be a financial burden on FSIL and her DH - they struggle every month. So we're now looking into someplace within driving distance - the weather doesn't matter, FH is a teacher and will be off in the summer, Feb, April, etc - we have plenty of date options for 2006.

Anyone been to Ocracoke Island? (north carolina) - I've heard great things.

Myrtle beach is too commercial for us, florida is too far - please offer whatever you've got!
Thanks!!

THANK YOU wedhead! that was very sweet of you.



No prob. Here's another option I just thought of. My FSIL got married in Nantucket. She had her wedding at the Harbor House which isn't anywhere near the price of the Sagamore. If you're having a more casual and smaller wedding, she actually did the clambake the night before at The Brante Point Inn. It was buffet style but HUGE lobsters. It was great atmosphere and that was only $70 a head. Here's the link if you want to check it out.

what about hilton head island SC. I've heard it's nice. Vermont is really nice in the summer. FI and I went there about two years ago and it was gorgeous.
