For the wedding itself, if you’re outdoors on the beach, you don’t need a lot. A beautiful day, and the sound of the ocean waves add a lot of ambiance on their own. If the wedding is taking place near sunset, you may want to put out some tiki torches to illuminate the ceremony. Tropical flowers may add a bit of color. Wedding colors can be sea colors like sea green, aqua blue, sky blue, white, pale beige or sea grass. If your guests will be seated, fabric ribbons or sashes in the same colors can be tied to the chairs.
