Kevin Hart stars in a new movie coming out Friday called The Wedding Ringer where he plays the owner and operator of a service that provides groomsmen for grooms that need them. Wild Dunes Resort, located in beautiful Isle of Palms is known for being able to provide everything anyone could want not just for vacations, but for weddings and honeymoons as well. With that being said, it comes as no surprise that Wild Dunes Resort offers a "Best Man for Hire" for their guests that are booking a wedding or wedding related package to coincide with this weekend's release of the film.

During a prescreening interview, Best Man for Hire Matt Marcino gave answers to questions like, "Would you sleep with a bridesmaid? (Not now that I am married)" and "How many pours are in a bottle of champagne? (Not enough)."

Some of Matt's other skills are being able to perform CPR (only on a girl), shagging is his specialty on the dance floor and apparently can spot cold feet from a mile away. He is also a proud member of Toastmasters, can make up stories about high school shenanigans and is the best at keeping secrets.

Wild Dunes always offers wedding packages and offers up wrap around events like a Groomsmen's Golf tourney or Fishing with the Guys. On the women's side there are events like the Ladies Luncheon and Bridal Party Pampering. The views at Wild Dunes are so spectacular that holding social events like rehearsal dinners and send off brunches are not only beautiful, but easy to bundle in, too.

Wild Dunes is at the tip of Isle of Palms and just a quick 25 minute drive from downtown Charleston, South Carolina. They have 1,600 acres between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean including two world class golf courses, 17 tennis courts, two and a half miles of beach as well as water sports, spa, resort-wide pools, dining and recreational activities.

Historic downtown Charleston has great shopping, a great culinary scene, fun nightlife, and historic tours, carriage rides and plantation experiences.
