Beach Wedding Ideas
If you live near the seashore and are planning a beach wedding, you could not ask for a more relaxed and natural setting. As you pledge your undying love and devotion, you can depend on the ocean waves and the seabirds singing their beautiful songs to accompany your music.
Beach weddings are more relaxed and casual by nature, so you can opt out of the costly traditional wedding gown and choose a less formal wedding gown or go with sandals and a white sundress. You will need a canopy or tent as a shelter from the sun and possible, heaven forbid, rain. If you’re planning on having dancing at your reception, you can rent a wooden dance floor. Also included on your to rent list are; tables, chairs, lighting and port-a-potty if necessary. Keep in mind that you may need access to the beach on a wooden walkway if you have any special needs guests. Be sure your special needs guests are alerted ahead of time and know that you have made provisions for them. Insects and birds do not usually present a problem, but it is a good idea to talk to your caterer about protecting the food from flying and crawling critters. Instead of the traditional white guest book consider this beach themed guest book and pen.  Other than table centerpieces and maybe some topiaries, and greenery your decorations are the magnificent backdrop of the beautiful sand and ocean waves. Your centerpieces can consist of citronella candles (which will double as insect control) decorated with ivy around the base.
Keep in mind that if your getting married at a private beach, then no need to concern yourself about uninvited guests. However, if you are marrying at a public beach, avoid unwanted onlookers by choosing an off-peak time. Beach wedding themes are becoming more and more popular and using my beach wedding ideas will help you plan your very special, magical day.
