You don't need to spend a fortune or go into debt to have a beautiful sunset beach wedding. Your beach wedding will be most romantic and memorable time of your entire lifetime so keep it simple and focus on the two of you. After all it's your wedding.
Avoid overly elaborate, expensive dresses. A beautiful white, pastel or cream colored dress is perfect for a beach wedding and at a fraction of the cost of a traditional wedding dress. However if you do desire a more elaborate wedding dress, look at consignment shops and the classified ads. Wedding dresses are generally only worn once so you can get a gently used dress at a huge cost savings.
Keep the number of guests down. Keep the number of bridesmaids and groomsmen to a minimum or choose not to have them at all which will eliminate the need to buy groomsmen and bridesmaid gifts. Hold the ceremony and reception in the same location.
Make stunning bouquets yourself. You can buy fresh cut flowers and roses at most grocery stores. Use all roses or fresh cut flowers and tie with ribbons. It's quick, easy, inexpensive and naturally beautiful.
Your officiant can also be your photographer at reasonable rates. You can save a bundle and still get fantastic photos of your beach wedding including photos of friends or family and candid shots for you to recall your romantic beach wedding ceremony for the rest of your life..
