Location

Beaches are usually breezy. Try to pick an area protected from direct winds for your wedding. Choose a location based on your wedding style and irrational guest list. Unlike a hometown affair, you can’t assume everyone will be able to attend, especially if you’ve chosen a beach that requires a journey for most people. Nilaya Hermitage can be your wedding destination.

Planner

While it may sound pretty easy getting married on the beach, but it would be much better to hire a planner to handle the unforeseen hindrances of a beach wedding. Not only do you have to book your venue, but fulfill the marriage and essential permit requirements of the state in which you are to be wed may take a few months. So it’s good to have a professional to help with these tricky situations. Get your beach wedding planned by Sound Spirit Events.

Inform Guests

Make sure your guests know that the wedding is actually on the sand, so they can dress accordingly. This can be told by the invitation, on your wedding card and verbally. Be sure to place a welcome basket at the front of your ceremony site and gifts that will remind them of the setting – refreshing glasses of lemonade, or cozy beach blankets.

Dress Code

Seaside weddings demand lightweight attire—anything else and you’ll be weighed down and hot. Grooms often sport linen, but if it’s really hot, guys can go for the jacket and wear a loose shirt and trouser. For the ladies, light, fabrics are key; for comfort, try cotton or linen.

The Food

The main part of Indian culture is food and specialy the one trending topic of weddings in India is the food. A beach wedding in Goa will be quite different from a seasonal wedding in the Delhi, and your menu should reflect that. When selecting your menu, also consider the temperature—many foods will spoil in the heat (for your wedding cake, for instance, fondant is a better choice than buttercream, which will melt in the hot temps).
