Surrounded by nature, you’ll begin your next chapter in an effortlessly perfect setting. Here are some ideal ways to enhance your special day and make your beach wedding truly unforgettable… unsplash.com@anitaaustvika ELEGANT CEREMONY SETUP TEXTURES AND TONES RUSTIC WEDDING BREAKFAST COMFORT AND BAREFOOT FUN LIGHTING UP LOVE For the ceremony setup, keep things simple yet elegant with wooden benches, an aisle lined with lanterns and rope, and a wooden arch adorned with flowing drapes and loose, natural floral arrangements. Incorporating seashells, grasses, or pampas within your florals can beautifully tie your ceremony décor back to the beachside setting. Aim for details that feel breezy, romantic, and effortless — let the view speak for itself. Make the most of the natural setting by incorporating organic textures like driftwood, jute, linen, and rattan. Think wooden signs, bamboo chairs, and wicker baskets to enhance the coastal charm and bring a tactile softness to the setting. Choose soft, complementary tones, sandy beige, seafoam green, blush pink, pale blue, soft lavender, and crisp white for your table runners, stationery, florals, and centrepieces to create a cohesive look. For the wedding breakfast, we love rustic-style tables dressed in neutral linens, with driftwood centrepieces, coastal florals, and candlelight creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Add small but meaningful touches inspired by the beach, think seashells, pebbles, and sea glass. Keep guests comfortable with cosy blankets or shawls to protect against the sea breeze. Provide a basket of flip-flops for those not wearing sand-friendly footwear or add a playful sign encouraging guests to kick off their shoes go barefoot. For the perfect evening ambience, illuminate your space with plenty of fairy lights or lanterns. Keep it eco-friendly by using solar-powered lights along pathways. For a cosy, intimate touch, firepits are a wonderful addition for gathering, storytelling, and yes, toasting marshmallows under the stars. unsplash.com/@3tnik 44
