*Exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Look at Hidden Gem Resort*
A destination wedding truly requires going the extra mile to ensure the special celebration takes place flawlessly, which makes the nightmare scenario of a double booking even more chaotic. This is the exact predicament depicted in “You’re Cordially Invited,” the new Prime Video film starring Will Ferrell and Reese Witherspoon. The movie revolves around two conflicting weddings set on a remote island off the coast of Georgia, although in reality, the filming took place in the state itself. Here, we have all the details viewers need to know about this charming location.
Where Was “You’re Cordially Invited” Filmed?
For the film’s setting, writer-director Nicholas Stoller aimed to choose a destination that was incredibly beautiful and appealing to the audience. Lake Oconee, a reservoir situated 75 miles east of Atlanta, perfectly fit the bill with its picturesque landscape of serene waters and lush green surroundings. Additionally, it exuded a sense of intimacy. “I love weddings, and I thought there would be something magical about creating a movie in a stunning location centered around two distinct weddings,” Stoller expressed in a press release.
Secluded and tranquil, this hidden gem is an ideal spot for a wedding ceremony. “Simultaneously, you understand why it may not be able to host a large crowd,” producer Lauren Neustadter elaborated. “It feels authentic, yet it’s also the kind of place where comedy can naturally unfold.”
The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee serves as the luxurious lakefront resort in the area. The Reynolds Lake Oconee community encompasses vacation rentals and around 150 real estate offerings for enthusiastic travelers and potential buyers. “It’s a fantastic resort that has it all – from beautiful architecture to a charming barn and a breathtaking lakefront venue,” Witherspoon noted. “You have access to pools, jet skis, boats, putt-putt golf – everything you’d desire for a perfect, almost fairy-tale wedding.” These are also appealing amenities for a relaxing vacation.
