We Are Poppies & Peonies

Weddings Made for the Beach

North Myrtle Beach is a string of beach communities — Cherry Grove, Ocean Drive, Crescent Beach, and Windy Hill — with the Intracoastal Waterway and Barefoot Landing just inland, and Briarcliffe Acres along its southern edge. It is wide, sandy, and easy for guests to reach.

Couples choose it for oceanfront ceremonies, resort ballrooms with sea views, and a relaxed beach-music heritage that makes the party easy. Beach weddings come down to the details you don’t see coming — sand, wind, tides, rules, and sunset timing — and we plan around all of them.

Poppies and Peonies is based in Anderson, South Carolina, and we travel to the Grand Strand for weddings. We bring the same full-service planning approach we use at home, with beach logistics built in from day one. Planning nearby? See our wedding planning in Myrtle Beach and Murrells Inlet.

Why Couples Choose Us

Your North Myrtle Beach Wedding Planning Team

Planning a beach wedding from a distance takes a planner who treats weather, travel, and guest logistics as part of the job. From partial coordination to full-service planning, we manage every vendor, timeline, and detail so your North Myrtle Beach wedding day feels effortless.

01

Beach-Ready Planning

Sand, wind, tides, and sunset times all shape a beach wedding. We plan the timeline, the backup plan, and guest comfort around them.

02

Resort & Guest Logistics

Room blocks, group arrivals, ballroom load-ins, and ceremony-to-reception flow — we coordinate the pieces resort weddings depend on.

03

Deeply Personal Touch

Your story isn’t a template. We tailor every detail — the textures, the timeline, and the tones — to reflect your specific style, wherever you say “I do.”

What We Really Do

More Than Another Wedding Vendor

A coordinator does more than hold a clipboard — we protect your peace of mind. Here is how we transform your experience.

Logistics Mastery. We take over the “nitty-gritty” — from finalizing floor plans to managing the load-in schedules of multiple vendors at your North Myrtle Beach venue.

Timeline Execution. We ensure the ceremony starts on time, the toasts stay on track, and the transition from dinner to dancing is seamless, so the energy never dips.

The “Firefighter” Factor. If a centerpiece tips or the wind picks up, we handle it before you even know it happened — the buffer between you and the inevitable hiccups of a live event.

Vendor Liaison. We become the primary point of contact for everyone from the photographer to the DJ, ensuring they have what they need to do their best work for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

A wedding planner works with you from engagement — helping choose vendors, build timelines, and manage every decision. A day-of coordinator steps in closer to your date to execute the plan you have already built. At Poppies and Peonies, we offer both and everything in between.
We love planning around oceanfront resorts such as Avista, Tilghman Beach & Golf Resort, and Ocean Drive Beach & Golf Resort, as well as beach ceremonies in Cherry Grove and Ocean Drive. If you have already booked a venue we will plan around it; if not, we are happy to help you compare options.
Rules for setup and permits on the beach can change and vary by location. We confirm the current requirements with the town and your venue as part of planning, so you don’t have to chase them down.
Absolutely. Poppies and Peonies is a full-service wedding florist as well as a planning team. Many couples book both — which means one unified vision, one point of contact, and a cohesive look from your bouquet to your centerpieces.
For full planning, we recommend reaching out 12 to 18 months ahead. For day-of coordination, 6 to 9 months is ideal. Popular North Myrtle Beach dates — especially spring and fall weekends — book up fast, so earlier is always better.
