I wanted nothing more to get married on the beach. It's a beautiful and natural way to get married! You may come across some Nay Sayers who aren't as adventurous as you are....but fear not. If you stick to these tips you might be able to please most.
Tip number 1!
Have a back up plan! You can't count on the weather. Most reception locations will offer to help you with a back up plan. Make sure your ceremony contract will refund you in case of bad weather.
Tip number 2:
Take into consideration grandma and grandpa, if they have walkers or wheel chairs they can't wheel in the sand. I have this issue, while I loved the idea of getting married barefoot, I decided to get married at a wildlife sanctuary overlooking the beach. I will be married with grass next to the sand, decent compromise.
Tip number 3:
If you can afford it rent a tent just in case it is too sunny. However, tents are super expensive-they can go up to 2-3k. One idea could be to offer parasols to guests if the sun is bothering them. You can find some for under 6 dollars each at the Wedding Channel Store. However look out for deals, they have black and white parasols for under $2.00 right now.
Another option is you want to keep things casual and comfortable is to include the dress code: "beach chic" to let your guests know it will be an outdoor wedding.
