Special Considerations for Beach Weddings

The sand, blue water, sunshine, and the romantic air flowing, makes beach weddings a great location for weddings. And because beach weddings are automatically an outdoor wedding, there will be some concerns in making it a more romantic wedding. Here are just some of those special considerations that you will need to incorporate with your wedding planning.

1. Consider the weather. The weather is most of the time a common concern in any form of outdoor weddings. Most especially if this outdoor wedding will be held on a beach. As beaches are most of the time windy and they are totally open, most consider this as a major concern.

Winds can be most of the time unpredictable therefore anything that could tangle up or blow away by the wind should be secured and prevented. Another consideration about the weather is the sun. You, your bridal party and the rests of your guests should be comfortable for the big day. Ask your guests to wear comfortable clothes and to bring their shades with them.

You and your bridal party should also be in comfort with wearing the right dress and Swarovski crystal bridal jewelry. And because the weather can be unpredictable it is much better if you would rent a tent in the case that it rains.

2. Special concerns on the beach. Since beaches are made of sand, your guests who would be sitting on their chairs as they watch the ceremony may sink into the sand. To avoid this simple mishap, rent a floor for the ceremony. Rental companies for tents also come with different accessories that will help you plan for the wedding.

The tide is another concern that you should look over. It is best if you would know when the tide comes in and how far it would be so you can plan the ceremony or the reception in an area where the water would not be an issue. The wind could also cause a problem since the noisy nature of the beach can distract the guests’ attention. It is most appropriate if you can have a sound system so that you can easily broadcast the activities to the guests.

Another consideration that you should not leave behind is the restrooms, if the area does not have this, then you will need to rent some portable restrooms. You will also need to consider the place where you are actually going to marry. If you are going to marry in a public beach where you will wear your crystal wedding jewelry, you will have to accept that there will be other people beside from your guests and relatives around. Better to have your wedding, where people do not usually go too. Keep in mind that the rules of the beach must always be followed and you should check about them ahead of time.
