Getting married on the beach is one of most romantic and highly requested places to tie the knot. So choosing a dress that is long, flowly, and blows in the wind is most. For beach weddings, I always tell brides to either go with a short and simple dress, or a long and flowly dress. Truly the best look for the carefree beach bride are pieces that are strapless and dresses that allow alot of natural movement. You can accent your dress by wearing pieces that remind your guests of the ocean, sea shells, hints or pops of blue, pearls, and beautiful flowers are all great items you can play around with. Look below for a few ideas and items you can use for you big day.

- Your Bridesmaids

The easiest way to showcase neon through your bridesmaid is with their dresses. Instead of traditional baby pink for weddings, you can use a very bold and goregous neon pink hue for your bridesmaids to wear. Or you can simply dress them in traditional colors, and add a splash of neon by giving them neon colored heels.


Your Bouquet - Add pops of neon by making a simple floral bouquet made out of neon paper.

Your Jewelry – Another way you can add neon to your overall look is through the use of neon colored jewelry, or hair ornaments.

Through Your Desserts - Create lavish treats for your quests by giving them neon colored icing.

Your Dinner Setting Arrangements – Create a fab dinner arrangement for your quests by adding neon to their table settings.
