The charming location means that wedding parties are never far from the fresh sea air or walkways with sand between their toes. Coastal views surround this beautiful resort, filtering inside to the event spaces and luxury suites. This full-service hotel boasts everything a couple may need for an unforgettable weekend of romance and celebrations.
Facilities and Capacity
Shell Island Resort offers a total of four indoor and outdoor event spaces, ideal for hosting the whole wedding. The Oceanfront Ballroom is most widely chosen by couples for their special day as it easily accommodates up to 250 guests. A charming seaside interior design lends a casually elegant ambiance to the property.

Ashley B. Married on 10/08/2022Affordable & beautiful oceanfront hotel & event venue
My husband and I chose Shell Island Resort to host our out of town guests for our wedding weekend. The location is absolutely stunning with views in every direction and really giving all of our guests a true feel of Wrightsville Beach. The property is no frills but has everything you need including a pool, gym, restaurant and bar (though the restaurant and bar close around 4 every day but there are plenty of great options in town!). Plus every single room is a suite with an oceanfront view. We hosted a welcome party and post-wedding brunch in the banquet room. It's a stunning room with views of the ocean and a patio that opens up off the back. The price is very reasonable and their service is good. Meredith is really the star though, she is so easy to work with, responsive, attentive and genuinely the best. Highly recommend!!-

Shell Island Resort is the perfect place to have your beach wedding. The staff there is great.
We love Shell Island and have done countless weddings here over the years. It's oceanfront and all rooms are as well! You can house your guests and wedding party in one spot and get married on the beach right outside the hotel. They have nice ballrooms to host your reception right on site. Alex and her team are amazing! You'll be pleased for sure!
