Beachy Details

We've already talked about how beach weddings are full of natural beauty. Bright blue skies, deep blue ocean, so little need for additional decor. But how do you weave in your beach theme without seeming kitschy, or overdoing it? The trick is to include a few beautiful details to enhance the seaside beauty and keep your wedding's impact to a minimum.

Choose a few pieces of natural decor that can be either returned to the environment afterwards, or taken home by you and your guests as a special reminder of your wedding day.

Don't limit your beach ideas to your decor, either. Serve your guests a delicious and sustainable meal of ocean delicacies. We recommend using the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Recommendations to determine the freshest and most sustainable choices for your area.
