Tips on Planning a Beach Wedding

Planning a beach wedding comes with unique, unexpected problems, don't over look these details and be disappointed on your big day. If you are using a public beach as your wedding venue, try to avoid mid day, when the beach will be busy. Early morning or late afternoon are less busy times. Dusk - during a beautiful sunset can be a very romantic time.



Every bride and groom planning a beach wedding envision a bright sunny day - unfortunately, Mother Nature doesn't always cooperate.Don't rely on good weather, while every beach wedding should be in sunshine, unfortunately it doesn't always work that way. Have a back up plan in case of bad weather, whether it's an alternate indoor location or an extra tent to retreat into. Be sure to inform wedding guests of the alternate location.




Candles, torches and battery powered twinkle lights are all beach friendly. Depending on the time of day and weather extra lighting may not be necessary. Candles are a practical choice provided they are in a glass container to block the wind.

Food and table arrangements for a beach wedding

In keeping with a beach theme - serve easy to eat foods - try to avoid foods that will need a knifes and fork. Why not cook meat and vegetables on individual skewers and a offer side dishes that are easy to pick up and go - stuffed mushrooms, raw vegetables, and salads.



If your wedding cake will be on display, wrap it up in clear cellophane - looks beautiful and keeps the sand and bugs off.


Decoration ideas for a beach wedding

Extend the beach theme to your menu and table arrangements. Serving food inside seashells is a nice beachy touch and very practical too - they won't break! Use place cards that won't blow away - names printed on shells with a marker, keep the theme going.

Centerpieces made from drift wood, local flowers, even bowls with plastic goldfish are inexpensive and easy to transport. Sand castles are a natural choice for a seaside wedding.




Plan on having a microphone for the ceremony and announcements. Beaches can be very noisy places.


Happy Planning to you!

Adding a Wedding Arch

Give your beach wedding a focal point by using an arch. Add decorative elements in your wedding colors or items with a beach theme to the arch. The scenic view of the beach is the perfect backdrop for your wedding, but let the arch create an ideal spot to frame your wedding photos.




Bamboo Canopy
We use a canopy made of bamboo poles for your beach wedding. This style is similar to the bamboo arbor, but is more three-dimensional with a cover. This can be draped in fabric on the top and sides. This elegant look can be further decorated by setting decorative pots full of flowers or greenery on short columns next to the four poles of the canopy.





Bamboo Arbor or Screen
We use an arbor made of bamboo to create a simple arch with clean lines instead of a curve. The arbor is made of four long bamboo poles that, when connected, create more of a square-shaped arch. It can be draped with fabric, flowers or greenery along the top and/or sides of the bamboo poles. To give it a screen appearance, hang strings of shells, crystal, mirrors or beads from the top.




We strive to provide the best beach wedding and wedding ceremony on the cost. Our beach wedding arch setups are comprised of natural Bamboo, beautiful silk flowers and green foliage to create a fantastic beach wedding setup. Our flower wedding arbors are designed with sheer or colored material of your choice and customed designed with flowers, greens and beach wedding decorations.

Happy Planning to you
