Frequently asked questions regarding Coastal and Beach Weddings

What are the reasons couples get married at the beach?

Many couples who marry at the beach or seaside want to feel the sand between their toes, smell the salty, fresh air and celebrate their union with their closest friends and family. That's not to say you can't have a large, lavish bash at a resort with all your friends and family. There's certainly something for everyone when it comes to coastal and beach weddings.

What are the best dates for a coastal or beach wedding?

When choosing your wedding date, it's important to consider the weather, which will vary depending on the location of your coastal or beach wedding venue. If you're having a destination wedding, be sure to check what the weather is like at that time of the year, to make sure you avoid the rainy or colder seasons. It's a good idea to have a plan B in case the weather doesn't cooperate, so you can discuss this with the venue.

What should you consider when planning a coastal or beach wedding?

There are a few unique considerations you should keep in mind to plan a beach wedding everyone can enjoy. The first will be accessibility. Think about your guests and check to make sure all your guests will be able to access the venue and spaces where you'll be celebrating. If you're holding your ceremony by crashing waves, there's a chance no one will hear your vows, so you may want to do a sound check. Speak with your decorator or florist about the possible affect of the wind; we don't want the flowers to fly away. If it's going to be hot, make sure there are shady areas to cool off. You should meet with your chosen venue to discuss all the details and make sure no stone is left unturned.

Do I need to get special permits to celebrate my wedding at the beach?

If you aren't holding your wedding at a registered establishment or venue, chances are you'll have to do the proper paperwork to get permission to hold a wedding ceremony or reception at the beach.

How should one dress for a wedding at the beach?

If you'll be walking a lot directly on the sand, you'll want to wear comfortable shoes or simply go barefoot for a while! It's important to let guests know about the possibility of uneven ground so that they can dress accordingly. A beach wedding can be quite warm, so light materials and looser clothing is preferred.
