Wedding bells are ringing and soon you will be reciting your vows in a tropical setting – or beach-themed ambiance – and it is going to be the happiest day of your life. But then, as you may already know, there is no perfect wedding. Things can go wrong – and at that moment you could just shrug and say “Oh well, at least I tried my best to keep everything in order”.

So a nice wedding is a well planned wedding. Beach weddings or destination weddings are quite tricky actually. You have to polish everything, set the right ambiance, and try to foresee any thing that might go wrong and have a backup plan for it.

One of the things that the lovely couple shouldn’t miss out on while planning their big day are the small details – the things that people usually take for granted and end up forgetting about. These details will not be the star of the event; actually, they may even go unnoticed if done right. Check out these little things that will make a difference:

Fan

It’s a beach wedding – a destination wedding which means it’s going to be outdoors. Beach weddings are nicely done in tropical-seasoned countries which mean that the weather is most likely to be humid. You don’t want your mascara or your make up to go smudging down your face with the heat, would you? Or perhaps one of your guests might collapse because he or she can’t take the heat. It is recommended that the bride should have her own white fan – designed according to the wedding’s theme with pearls or shells. Guests can be reminded to bring their own fans, or perhaps it can be given out before the ceremony.

Hats

If the wedding is totally outdoors and possibly under the scorching heat of the sun, a beach hat, or a straw hat may be a great fashion accessory. It’s your wedding and if you, as the bride, would like to sport one, have one in white with some pearls or shells on it for accent. Your entourage and guests can have colorful ones that would match their dresses. It would be a great combination with the white sand and the blue waters.

Sunglasses

This is optional, depending on the time of day and the wedding’s theme and the couple’s personality. However, sunglasses can become great accessories especially for the groom and the male members of the entourage.

Perfume

It’s a beach wedding so use something light – not too musky or woody. Something with a citrus-y or floral hint to it that is fresh and mild. That would go well with the theme. It’s going to be very hot, so with you smelling all sweet and fresh would surely make the ambiance a whole lot better.

Bridal Purse

Don’t forget to stock it with tissues (in case of smearing make-up), mints (well, face it you will need to pop one or two; it’s a long evening), a small container of your perfume (you will need to re-spray every once in a while), and lipstick (you can’t go on the entire evening without retouching on that). With these accessories, your beach wedding will never be dull and boring. Just be creative so you can spice up your wedding and make the memories last for a lifetime.
