How To Style A Beach Themed Wedding

Modern Wedding Posted: January 11, 2018

Say yes to adventure, sandy feet and wind-swept hair with designs that mirror the beauty of the clear, blue sky and this great, golden land. Embrace your desire to wander the world in soft, dreamy tones of gold, ivory, copper and blush. There are so many fantastic ideas for an idyllic beachside wedding.

Discover your inner dreamer with light, airy dresses, whimsical watercolours and magical metallics. #uniquelyyou

Beach Wedding Invitations

Lets start with the invitations. We love the relaxed watercolours used in the invite below and paired with pastel colours guests will be expecting the perfect beachside soiree.

Rose Gold + Metallics

Magic metallics add a touch of luxe to a beachside affair, whilst still feeling totally relaxed and warm. We love adding a few candles or some rose gold cutlery into the mix.

Pretty Place Settings

Think cursive, watercolour menus, marble place settings and teal coloured plates. The beauty of a seaside wedding is that it doesn’t end with the ceremony. You can add little elements of the beach into every aspect of your special day.

Don’t forget dessert!

A beach themed wedding calls for a cake to match. We like the idea of sleek and modern design with lashings of florals or don’t even go a cake! Profiteroles are another fresh personal favourite!
