Beach Wedding

Date: 2014-03-14

Every bride wants to wear a wedding dress that will make her look stunning and beautiful and reflect the theme of her wedding. For beach weddings, a formal bridal satin gown or many other traditional styles will seem out of place. Beach wedding dresses are usually designed to exude a casual and fun but flowing and fashionable feel with a hint of romance and sexiness that all match the ambiance of the location. When selecting a beach wedding dress that embodies all of these characteristics, there are a number of aspects that must be considered.

Most beach wedding dresses are either strapless or haltered pieces. In some cases, the dress may even sport a spaghetti-strap design. All of these styles can make a beach wedding dress exude elegance with a touch of summertime fun. For instance, sarong wedding dresses are a favoured gown style for beach weddings because their strapless design and free-flowing structure reflect the serenity of calm, gentle waves.

Of course, this style is not for everyone. Some brides may even prefer a one-piece, off-shoulder, tube-top white or ivory dress with an A-line cut at the bottom, just slightly below the knees, resulting in a flattering fit. Another common option is the Sunday-dress style which features spaghetti straps and a floral theme. A dress in this style usually plays comes down to about the ankles for a more conservative, formal look. These styles are examples a bride can play with to choose the dress for her beach wedding.

The type of fabric used for a beach wedding dress should not be as heavy as those for traditional wedding dresses. Flowing materials that are not prone to wrinkling and drape nicely around the body are the best options. Some of the better materials are crepe, chiffon, lightweight cotton and organza. Silk and satin are too warm, and the last thing a bride wants on her wedding day is to sweat.

The most popular length for beach wedding dresses is ankle length or slightly above the ankles. Short dresses, where the length is slightly below or above the knees, are options; the dress style should mirror this casual feel of this length. Slits on the sides of a long, flowing dress are highly recommended as a way to show some skin. The wedding is on the beach after all.

With a wedding at the beach, more colors, other than ivory and white, are very acceptable. Wedding dresses can have big floral prints in reds, oranges and yellows. Blues, yellows and greens are other colors that go very well with beach settings.

When it comes to accessories, avoid heavy types of jewellery that could overpower the beach wedding dress. Fresh flowers in the hair can add just the right touch, giving the whole ensemble look a simple yet classy touch. The bride can carry a bouquet of daisies, lilies or roses wrapped up in a ribbon or in a basket, instead of a more ornate bouquet.

There is simply no way anyone can walk comfortably with high-heeled shoes on the beach. Going barefoot is still the best way to go. For a more formal option, stylish flat sandals can still provide comfort; keep your feet from getting all sandy. They also look pretty with freshly painted toenails.
