A Few Beach Wedding Decorating Ideas
A beach wedding can be as casual or as formal as you please,
depending on your tastes, your budget and the rules and
regulations of use at the venue you've chosen. There are a number
of decisions you'll have to make.
Will you have the ceremony on
the beach and retire to a hall or restaurant for the reception? If
you do have the reception on the beach, will you have a cabana,
beach pavilions, or some sort of sheltered tent? Or will you set
up in the open?

If you choose to have your wedding ceremony on the beach, try this
decorating idea to create an 'altar substitute'. Stand four slim
garden poles in the sand at the four corners of a square. Wrap
picture wire or other sturdy string/wire around each post, using
it to connect the tops about a foot below the tip of the post.
Twine a garland of flowers and ivy along each wire, allowing the
swag ends to drape against the poles. Add a flourish of bows with
dangling ribbons to each pole. The open canopy should be large
enough to comfortably fit at least the bride, groom and minister,
though you can make it large enough for the entire wedding party.
Rented chairs for the occasion? Instead of pew markers, decorate
the end of each row with a flourish of tulle and flowers attached
to a three foot garden stake. Push the stake deep into the sand to
secure it, and add ribbons to flutter in the sea breeze.
Decorate the entrance to a beach pavilion with bunches of blue and
white balloons gathered in fine meshed fishing nets. Tie the
bottom of the net with blue and white ribbons and decorate with
cowry shells for good luck.
While you're at it, drape a necklace of cowry shells around the
necks of each guest for good luck and prosperity. Add a little
personalized ribbon tag with the date of your wedding on it so
that the shells become a keepsake of your celebration.
If you've decided to go completely casual, make it a clambake.
Instead of chairs, provide plenty of seating on driftwood and
benches, and turn beach shovels into wedding favors with
tulle-wrapped candies and ribbons.
Check around with florists and wedding planners for unusual beach
wedding decoration ideas that you can adapt to your own wedding to
make it a special and meaningful day for you.
