Pensacola Florida Beach Weddings hints and tips

For creating a beautiful yet inexpensive beach wedding


Here are a few tips I learned along the way.


  • One idea is to have your beach wedding in a state or county park that overlooks the beaches on the Gulf of Mexico. Many of them have beautiful pavilions that will work well for your reception.

  • There are numerous places on the beach to rent that are wedding friendly. You can rent a nice beach house for the reception that's relatively inexpensive, plus you can spend you wedding night there.

  • Rent some chairs and set up an arbor. You can have the guys set up the chairs. Purchase some tulle and weave that to the arbor. Now you have a beautiful focal point for the ceremony.

  • Make sure you get you license in the state you are getting married in, not the state you live in.

  • Have the men where khakis and a white shirt - you don't want to be too formal on a beach and it is less expensive than renting a tux.

  • A really inexpensive centerpiece idea is to get some glass containers and fill them with sand. Put three tea lights in the center and spread seashells on top of the sand. Will only cost a few dollars per centerpiece.

  • Keep your decorations simple. Instead of flowers strung along the chairs (which may wilt on a sunny, sandy beach) you can drill a hole in a large seashell and string them with ribbon along the chairs. Also use leis instead of flower bouquets.

  • If you have a sunset ceremony (how romantic!) purchase hurricane candle holders and stabilize them by pushing them into the sand to line the walkway.

Your Florida Beach Wedding - Don't forget your guests

Other considerations when having a beach wedding


  • Set up a basket with sun umbrellas - can come in handy so your guests are not squinting in the sun.

  • It can be hard to walk in sand with nice shoes, so set up a basket of flip flops for your guests to slip on, or even better, have them go barefoot.

  • Consider getting married in the morning. Do to the position of the sun later in the day, you don't want your guests squinting in the wedding photos.

    What colors go well for your Pensacola Florida Beach Wedding?


    Chocolate brown and ivory work well for beach weddings, plus you can easily incorporate a shell theme. A third or fourth main color is becoming popular with brides, so a light teal or light blue will add some dimension to the color scheme.

    Beach Wedding Dresses

    You'll need to take the sun, wind, or ran into consideration


    There is often a breeze on the beach so you'll want to take that into consideration when choosing the wedding and bridesmaid dresses. You might consider a more form fitting dress and putting you hair up. Also, you might want to forgo the veil.
