Planning a wedding is an opportunity to bring your favorite people together in a place that feels special to you. For couples drawn to the South Carolina coast, Kingston Resorts offers an oceanfront setting with a range of ceremony and reception venues, on-site accommodations, dining options, and experiences for guests to enjoy throughout their stay. 

Located along the Myrtle Beach coastline, Kingston Resorts combines the beauty of a beach destination with the convenience of having wedding celebrations, guest accommodations, and resort amenities in one location. From an intimate ceremony overlooking the Atlantic to a grand ballroom reception, couples can plan a celebration that reflects their style and the experience they want to create for their guests. 

Choose a Setting That Fits Your Wedding

The venue helps establish the atmosphere for the entire celebration. At Kingston Resorts, couples can choose from outdoor wedding venues, ocean-view event spaces, and elegant ballrooms, each offering a different way to celebrate along the coast. 

For an outdoor ceremony, Currents Lawn provides a setting surrounded by palm trees and coastal scenery near Black Drum. The North Lawn at Hilton Myrtle Beach Resort offers sweeping ocean views, while Horizon Lawn at The Landing is an option for smaller gatherings and rehearsal dinners. 

Couples who prefer an indoor celebration can explore several ballroom options. Seaside Vista at Black Drum offers an intimate atmosphere with ocean views, while the Dunes Ballroom at Hilton Myrtle Beach Resort sits 16 floors above the coastline. For larger celebrations, the Palisades Ballroom at Hilton Myrtle Beach Resort and the Kensington Ballroom at Embassy Suites Myrtle Beach provide expansive spaces for receptions and formal events. 

With seven outdoor venues and three elegant ballrooms among the resort’s wedding spaces, couples have room to consider different guest counts, layouts, and celebration styles. 

Create a Wedding Menu Worth Gathering Around

Food is an important part of any wedding reception, giving guests a chance to gather, celebrate, and enjoy the occasion together. Kingston Resorts offers wedding catering options designed to complement the event, from cocktail-hour hors d’oeuvres to plated dinners and buffet-style receptions. 

Wedding menus draw inspiration from Southern flavors and fresh local ingredients, with opportunities to incorporate signature drinks and thoughtfully presented dishes. Couples can choose a dining style that suits the formality of their reception and the atmosphere they have in mind. 

Butler-passed hors d’oeuvres offer an inviting start to the evening, while culinary stations bring an interactive element to the reception. Plated dinners provide a traditional seated experience, and buffets allow guests to select from a variety of dishes. 

The resort’s catering managers and banquet team work with couples to coordinate the food and service details, helping the reception run smoothly from the first course through the final toast. 

Make Room for the Entire Wedding Weekend

A destination wedding often involves more than the ceremony and reception. Guests may travel from different cities, take time off work, and turn the occasion into a longer coastal getaway. Having wedding accommodations in Myrtle Beach and resort amenities nearby makes it easier to bring everyone together beyond the wedding day itself. 

Kingston Resorts offers a variety of accommodations, including oceanfront condos, resort-view villas, and hotel rooms. This range gives couples and their guests options for different group sizes and travel preferences. 

Couples can also arrange an intimate rehearsal dinner with ocean views before the wedding. For additional time to unwind, guests can visit Spa33, enjoy fitness activities at 78Fitness , or explore the resort’s dining options. 

On the wedding night, ocean-view accommodations provide a fitting place for the newlyweds to settle in after the festivities. For guests staying longer, the resort’s coastal setting offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy Myrtle Beach attractions and activities outside the scheduled wedding events. 

Give Guests More to Experience in Myrtle Beach

One advantage of hosting a wedding at an oceanfront resort is the opportunity to make the destination part of the celebration. Guests can spend time by the beach, enjoy the resort’s amenities, and explore the surrounding Myrtle Beach area during their stay. 

For couples planning a multi-day wedding itinerary, this setting creates opportunities to organize welcome gatherings, rehearsal dinners, post-wedding brunches, or relaxed time together between events. 

The resort’s variety of event spaces also allows couples to consider different settings for different parts of the weekend. An outdoor ceremony, a ballroom reception, and a smaller dinner gathering can each have their own atmosphere without requiring guests to travel between multiple venues. 

These details can make a destination wedding feel less like a single event and more like a shared experience for family and friends. 

Work With an Experienced Wedding Team

Coordinating a wedding involves many moving parts, from selecting a venue and arranging catering to organizing guest accommodations and managing the reception timeline. Working with an experienced team can help couples bring those details together while keeping their priorities in focus. 

Kingston Resorts’ catering managers and banquet professionals assist with event planning and service coordination. Couples can discuss their preferred venue, guest count, menu, and overall vision as they begin developing their plans. 

When exploring wedding venues, it is helpful to consider the ceremony and reception spaces together, ask about available layouts, and discuss how the event will flow from one part of the celebration to the next. Couples should also confirm current venue capacities, availability, catering arrangements, and accommodation options with the resort’s wedding team. 

Starting these conversations early can help establish a clear plan and make it easier to coordinate the details that matter most.
