Beach Weddings (Part 1)

Even though autumn has definitely arrived here in Melbourne, at Calypso Flowers we are already starting to discuss weddings for next spring and summer !

I've started to collect some images for a beach wedding, and there are so many options...

I love this idea for a seaside location...one that's not actually ON the beach, but where you can see the sea.

You could mark the ends of the rows with buckets of gypsophilia, otherwise known as Baby's Breath...

or hang little bottles of flowers from shepherd's crooks...

I don't know whose beautiful flowers these are

and just imagine the scene if you had the ceremony at dusk, and had all the candles pre-set and ready to go....

I would recommend using lanterns instead of candles, though. I've spent too much time at wedding ceremonies battling that gentle evening summer breeze that becomes a gale once you take out a box of matches !

What sort or dress would you wear ?
