A beach wedding is a good for brides on a budget, but it is also good for doing something alternative to the traditional church wedding and reception. If you love the openness and the natural atmosphere of the beach, why not bring your wedding to the beach. Think casual linens, thin cottons, chiffon, and organza. The thing with beachwear, is that you want to choose light fabrics. Avoid dresses that have materials weighing it down, such as beading or sequins

Good choices for the beach for the bride may be a nice ankle length dress that you can walk around the beach in with ease. Opt for this length dress instead of one with a train; you wouldn’t want your lovely dress covered in sand or dirt. You can go for a bit of a variation in length with your bridesmaids dresses by choosing tea length for them. Another good choice is to go for a hair style that is simplistic and pulled or pinned down. Being near the beach, it’s possible that you will encounter breezy weather from the wind. For this reason, it’s a smart idea to avoid long veils that will blow into your face for the affair. Pretty flowers adorned in your hair are a great alternative for a beach wedding. On your feet, its best to wear low heels or flip flops, but foot jewelry is another idea and just as lovely.
Soft shades are a natural color choice when having a wedding on the beach, but don’t be afraid to be daring if you choose. Some brides have gone for black chiffon dresses with red polka dots, or bold colors such as magenta or mango. Brides have even wore bathing suits with stylish sarongs and a big beautiful straw hat! It’s your wedding so whatever your imagination can come up with.
Your wedding on the beach is not only a great money saver, but it allows you to be breezy, beautiful, and stress-free on one of the most important days of your life. So consider your needs, style, and budget and then see if a beach wedding is for you.
