Packing: Weekend getaway + wedding

[incognitotoday]

Headed to Charleston tomorrow for a long weekend for a wedding on Saturday; other than that we are just exploring with no set plans.

What are some "staples" that you pack when you are going away for a weekend, not knowing what you are doing? We aren't sure if there are any other events related to the wedding we are attending (we didn't get an invite for an "out of towner" dinner the night before), so we are "winging" it and just enjoying a nice mini getaway! It's me, "C", his brother and wife who are going. We are all in our mid-30's and thankfully we all get along really well!

What would you pack? What styles? Shoes? Accessories? Help me with my packing list.

I usually do some shorter dresses to be worn alone with booties or used as tunics with leggings which I also pack. I usually pack a chambray shirt to double as a casual jacket and a maxi skirt or dress. I'll throw some skinnies, boots, tights, and a short skirt too.

I'd definitely pack walking shoes, a pair of jeans and some casual tops for during the day since it sounds like you'll have a nice amount of downtime. I'd also pack some sort of going out outfit (either black pants with a going out top or a cute dress) that you could use for either a nice dinner out or a rehearsal dinner in case you wind up finding out there is one.
Also a light jacket or heavier cardigan for at night, cause it'll likely get a little cool out. And pack warmer pjs too.
