Planning A Beach Wedding Made It Easy!

by THE ATRIUM AT SUNNY ATLANTIC LONG ISLAND’S PREMIER WATERFRONT CATERING VENUE.

When you close your eyes and envision your wedding, you have come to the right place if you see a saltwater-tinged breeze, sunny skies, and sand between your toes. Planning a beach wedding is more challenging than people believe it to be. Whether you host a beach wedding on a private beach or in a tropical destination thousands of miles away, it will surely amaze you and your guests!

The limitless ocean is known to act as the best backdrop for all your wedding photos. If you don't want to spend a lot of money on decorations, look for a unique wedding venue on a beach, and you are done. Besides adding to the overall vibe of your wedding, a beach wedding can also be a weekend of fun and festivities. However, there are a lot of things that a couple must consider when planning a beach wedding. So, if you also wish to get hitched on a beach, here are some essential factors you must keep in check. 

Permits And Ordinances 

Beach rules vary depending on your location. One of the most frequently asked questions among couples is, do you need a permit for a beach wedding? It's best to always check with your local government to see their rules for gatherings and events. Some factors to consider include:

  • Do you want to host a big or small beach wedding? Some beach wedding venues in Long Island have strict rules regarding gatherings, so the more people you invite, the more you will want to check the rules. 
  • Are you looking for privacy? You should know things will be much easier if you say no. However, some options allow you to rope off a particular section of the beach to help keep outsiders outside. 
  • Do you wish to serve alcohol outside? A lot of beaches prohibit alcohol, so ensure you do proper research on your local codes to find out if you have a green flag. 

Accessibility Also Matters!

We understand that getting married to the person of your dreams on a beach may sound lovely, but can your grandma make it to the ceremony? Will your guests have to stand throughout the ceremony? Or are there any options for people who need to sit? 

Like any other outdoor ceremony, the beach can also add a layer of complexity, especially regarding accessibility. So ensure you keep your guest list in check and determine if you need any additional accommodations so that no one misses out on the fun. 

Always Have A Backup Plan. 

The weather can be unpredictable, and whether it is high winds or rain that threaten to make things unbearable, it's best to have a backup plan in place. If the sky begins to pour, you must select a venue that can move you and your guests under cover. 

You could also consider hosting your reception indoors after your beach ceremony is over, giving you a little less to worry about in terms of what the weather may have in store. 

As long as you keep these things in check, you can easily ensure your wedding goes as smoothly as in the movies.
