Decorations for Beach Weddings
Candles are a great option for decorating your beach wedding. Floating candles in a bowl with beach elements are beautiful. Candles can be plain or beach themed. Starfish and other shell shaped candles are available, or you can find candles with shells imbedded inside. It’s beautiful to have a simple glass bowl with a simple candle surrounded with a variety of shells.
One thing to keep in mind when incorporating candles in your centerpiece design is the wind! Make sure that your candles are well below the rim of the bowl to keep the wind from blowing them out. If using floating candles, just fill the bowls up ¼ to halfway.
Other natural items can be included, such as varying containers filled with sea grass. To add some visual appeal to your centerpiece, use a ribbon to tie a starfish or other interesting shell to the outside, and to make a statement you can place some greenery underneath. Use a palm branch or even some fabric or a ribbon. These make great favors for your guests after the ceremony.
Use driftwood as a table runner. Intertwine it with shells, votives, and flower petals. This will be a unique and striking look for your main table, and will create visual appeal that you just don’t find In a standard table runner.
A beach wedding lends itself well to simple, understated yet beautiful centerpieces. The natural elements make it easy to create affordable designs that will leave you thrilled with the results. Have fun designing this part of your perfect day!
