Beach weddings are romantic and appealing for many reasons. Being out in the open surrounded with a décor that perfectly matches the wavy environment and your wedding theme, saying your vows under the clear blue sky where every element of nature showers blessings on your union is what beach weddings in Kerala are all about. Unlike conventional weddings that are held at a church or a closed venue with limited seating capacity, restricted wedding décor options and no natural touch, beach weddings offer a host of opportunities to experiment and explore and create a casual, comfortable, and elegant wedding setup for all.

The popularity of beach weddings is increasing tremendously and there are many reasons for it. Some prominent reasons why beach wedding in Kerala is more preferred than conventional weddings include:

a. Splendid location

Embracing the amazingness of nature, a beach wedding brings you the perfect location for uniting with your love of life. The emerald green backdrop combined with the sandy beach and a group of enchanted people in beautiful attires make a combination of picture-perfect moments.

b. Best wedding pictures

One of the biggest reasons couples prefer to have a beach wedding is because you get the perfect picture backdrop along with great lighting and the best wedding photography services in Kerala to capture your lovely moments through the lens.

c. Saves money

A beach wedding planning package is very affordable as it does not include a range of costs such as rentals for the venue, preparation of the venue, and coordination with suppliers.

d. Causal & comfortable

Beach weddings are casual and comfortable for everyone as they offer a laid-back setup to relax and enjoy the wedding under the clear blue skies, surrounded by the sea.

e. You can personalize the aesthetics

There is no cap on the possibilities of personalizing the aesthetics when it comes to beach weddings. You have the beach as a blank canvas where you can draw any color theme or décor idea as per your liking.

f. No problem with the capacity of guests

Again, unlike a closed venue, there is no cap on seating capacity on a beach. Invite as many guests as you want to your wedding when you are hosting it on an open beach.

2. Things to know before planning a beach wedding in Kerala

Here we have made a small list of important things that contribute towards a successful beach wedding in Kerala.

a. Make sure the venue is easily accessible to everyone

Kerala is the land of beaches which offers you great choices for your beach wedding location. Make sure you do not choose a location that is hard to reach for all. We offer wedding transportation services to ensure your guests reach you safely and comfortably.

b. Go for windproof décor

The sea breezes can be a major challenge for managing the décor. As a seasoned wedding decoration service provider in Kerala, we recommend choosing windproof décor.

c. Do research on current weather conditions

Weather in a coastal area can be unpredictable at times. You must have a credible beach wedding planner by your side who checks the weather conditions beforehand.

d. Get necessary permits for a public beach ceremony

Beach weddings do require certain permits for holding a public ceremony. Fret not, a professional beach wedding planner in Kerala will have it checked in his checklist.

e. Prepare a list of essential items.

Beaches are offbeat locations with some distance from the mainland. Forgetting your wedding essentials behind would be a big mistake on your wedding day. It is best to make a list of important items and bring them along.

3. Beach Wedding Decor Ideas

A perfect beach wedding has a beautiful wedding décor that says a lot about the two souls being united. Here are some of the best beach wedding décor ideas:

a. Elegant geometric arch

Hexagonal, triangular, square, and circular, the choices of shapes are many if you choose an elegant geometric arch. Add some flower and ribbon decorations and you have a beautiful wedding arch for your perfect wedding.

b. Install greenery-adorned wedding arch

You are saying your vows in the lap of nature which calls for a nature-inspired décor. Greenery-adorned wedding arches look amazing as they add the perfect green tint to a pastel coastal backdrop.

c. Pastel flower wedding arch

Pastel colors bring sophistication, elegance, and a unique charm. Installing a pastel flower wedding arch for the wedding is a graceful setup for your D-Day.

d. Try a circular wedding arch

A circular wedding arch with a beautiful floral arrangement and a red carpet leading you to it is a perfect beach wedding decoration idea.

e. Lantern-lit aisle

If you are planning a wedding at the golden hour, it offers you the opportunity to have a lantern-lit wedding aisle. You won’t believe how splendid it looks when the bride walks a lantern-lit aisle approaching the eagerly waiting groom.

The seating arrangement makes the core of beach wedding decoration. Try draping green garlands on the chairs and see how miraculously they change the entire scene.

i. Flowers behind the chairs
