Wedding Weekend Ideas Inspired by Jen & Jason’s Ocean Course Celebration
From the moment Jen and Jason chose Kiawah Island as their wedding destination, they knew they wanted to create something truly unforgettable for their loved ones.
Their wedding ceremony and reception at the iconic Ocean Course at Kiawah Island was a breathtaking blend of refined design and relaxed island elegance. With sweeping ocean views and an elegantly designed sailcloth tent reception, it was the perfect setting to begin their marriage. But the celebration didn’t end there.
In one of the most thoughtful wedding weekend ideas we’ve seen, Jen and Jason planned a relaxed and heartfelt farewell brunch the morning after their wedding. Hosted at Jen’s family home, just steps from the beach, their post-wedding pool party was the kind of gathering guests will talk about for years. A heated pool with floating games, casual-chic lounge areas, and the sounds of the ocean in the distance created a laid-back atmosphere where everyone could unwind, reconnect, and share stories from the night before.
Elevated takes on brunch classics like paella, brisket tacos, and watermelon bites, kept guests happily full and fueled for travel or one last beach stroll. It was the perfect punctuation mark on a weekend full of love, laughter, and intention.
If you’re dreaming of a Kiawah Island wedding, take a cue from Jen and Jason: make the most of your time together. A thoughtful weekend itinerary like a welcome dinner, a celebration at the Ocean Course, and a post-wedding poolside farewell brunch, allows you to soak in every moment while giving your guests a deeper connection to your story.
Looking for wedding weekend ideas that go beyond the traditional timeline? This Kiawah Island wedding proves that blending luxury with heartfelt hospitality creates a celebration that truly lingers.
