Quick Tip:

Should your heart be set on a beach wedding, touch base with The Town of Edisto Beach to ascertain permit requirements and navigate event regulations. Permits generally apply for gatherings with 50 or more guests or if entertainment continues past 10 pm. Adhering to beach regulations is essential, including a ban on glass containers, fireworks, and open flames. While tents and chairs can be set up, ensure to leave the beach as pristine as you found it by nightfall.
