Would you be so kind and share your comments about how Rev. Benjy Simmons assisted in your planning for your wedding and by performing your ceremony.  Your comments are valuable.

If you are looking for a place to hold a simple wedding ceremony then one of the most prestine and romantic settings within the Pawleys Island Area, is Pawleys Plantation.  It is private and quiet with breath taking views of the golf course and marsh in site.  It offers a covered porch in back of the pro shop for shelter from the elements and has plenty of parking for guests.  After one visit you will fall in love with this simple yet elequent setting. 

A wonderful beach wedding location is Springmaid Beach and Resort.  The Resort gives several options to have a simple wedding ceremony.  It can take place at poolside, in the grassy courtyard or a short walk to the white sandy beach.  The accommodations are great, while the location to the busy Myrtle Beach strip is a short drive away.  If the beach is choosen as an option then at the end of Springmaid Resort is a large parking area and once on the beach, go to the right about 40 yards to a perfect spot, private and less crowded because Myrtle Beach State Park borders Springmaid Resort allowing such privacy for a simple wedding ceremony.   

A perfect place for a small, romantic simple wedding ceremony is at a public park in the Garden City area of the Grand Strand.  It is a great alternative for an outdoor wedding along with a private view overlooking the Marsh.  At the end of the boardwalk is a shelter for the wedding party.  The biggest drawback is it has limited parking.  If you have a small wedding party such as bride/groom and immediate family then this spot may be perfect for you.  Places like this is just one of many along the greater Grand Strand.

A favorite location for simple wedding ceremonies on the Beach is the beautiful Surfside Beach area.  3rd Avenue North or South is walking distance from Surfside Pier.  It has a spacious beach at either high tide or low tide.  If you are thinking about a simple, romantic beach ceremony then this location would be a great place to be, especially at sunset.

A Simple Wedding Ceremony can take place anywhere. One of the most private and secluded places to hold a simple wedding is at the mouth of Winyah Bay and the Atlantic Ocean on an Island at the Georgetown Lighthouse.  Everything can be arranged through Lowcountry Plantation Tours with Captain Rod.   Request specifically for me to conduct the ceremony. It is a one hour boat ride to the island.  If you are looking for a unique and private spot for a simple ceremony then this Island is for you.
