Beach weddings are trendy, informal and oh so fun! This kind of wedding really lets you get your hair down and party. In fact, it is one of the most relaxed ways to get married. If you are planning a beach wedding in Kerala, read on for some handy tips and tricks!
Your clothes
Wear light materials and loose fitting, flowy contours which offer ease of movement. Make sure that hemlines do not extend beyond the ankles. If it is a Christian wedding, consider ditching the veil. It will blow about in the breeze and be difficult to control. Also, a nightmare for the photographer.
Hair and makeup
Consider a classy updo which keeps the hair away from your face. Also, make sure that your makeup is light, of the waterproof variety and easy to retouch.
Shoes
Heels on the sand? No way. Go with wedges, flats or espadrilles which provide a good balance on the sand.
The backdrop
Let the sun, sea, sand and waves speak for themselves so keep the decorations simple.
Timing
Choose sunrise or sunset for the wedding ceremony because private beaches tend to be really busy during the day. Also, most other times tend to be really hot and sweaty.
Prep your guests
Let your guests know well in advance about the seafront ceremony so that they can choose their wardrobe accordingly. Keep the dress code informal. It is also a good choice to have some flip flops, towels, sunscreen lotion and giant umbrellas at hand.
The wind
On the beach, you have to weigh down anything that you don’t want to be blown away. This includes the decorations, catering menus, wedding programs and even the canopy.
Insects
Tropical weather is warm and with warmth come the critters. Make sure you have insect repellant on hand for you and your guests.
Arrange washrooms
Rent portable bio-toilets.
Just keep these tips in mind for an unforgettable beach wedding!
