They do, however, still require lots of thought and attention. Don’t fear, though, we’ve got 7 ideas to make your beach wedding the perfect occasion.

Welcome bag

If you are having a beach wedding, it is likely that many of your guests will be attending from out of town. It might be a nice idea, therefore, to put together a welcome bag as a token to thank your guests for travelling to your wedding. You could include a list of local attractions, snacks, a wedding itinerary or a guide-book to the destination of your wedding. There are plenty of ideas to be found online for things that you could include.

Sequin hangers

Imagine all those gorgeous dresses from your bridal party hung up on beautiful hangers. It would certainly make for a wonderful photograph.

Rope-wrapped candle
