There are many ways to mimic a traditional wedding at a beach wedding, and also some simple ways to make it unique as there are fewer restrictions. Assuming the beach is wide enough to accommodate different seating plans, the arrangement of the chairs is one way to veer away from tradition. In a traditional setting, families are encouraged to sit on opposite sides of the aisle away from each other. One of the aspects which couples appreciate most about choosing an alternate seating plan is the opportunity to allow family and friends to mix and mingle for the ceremony, without a barrier between them. Asking guests to "choose a seat, not a side" is a popular beach wedding sign that can be rented from Suncoast Weddings for the big day. The seating plan can be in a circle, a spiral, or a tailored and unique design. One couple who loved stargazing had just the right number of guests to set up chairs in the shape of The Big Dipper on each side on their sandy aisle. The team at Suncoast Weddings are always on hand to talk through options and ideas, having been the creative force behind beach wedding ceremonies ranging from an intimate elopement for the couple only to lavish ceremonies with upwards on one hundred guests. Suncoast Weddings are premier wedding planners based in Treasure Island on the west coast of Florida. They offer unlimited support from day one of the planning process, helping draft the plans and then finalize all the details, from the location and the time to the type of decor, the music to be played, the seating plan, reception details, and much more. They have a vendor list of local suppliers which is a particularly useful resource for couples planning their Florida beach wedding or Florida beach vow renewal from out of state. Another way to mimic the traditions but add a new twist is to serve a cupcake tower with a small top tier as a wedding cake. This allows the couple to cut the cake and get the all-important traditional photographs for the album while allowing guests to select their perfectly portioned piece of cake themselves. Florida beach wedding packages have been designed and can be found on the website. All of the packages can be tailored and customized to make them unique.

Planning a Florida beach wedding or beach vow renewal is simplified when couples look to professional wedding planners who offer a range of packages. This can also be a good way to keep track of costs when trying to stay within a fixed budget. Unlike some other wedding planners who offer Florida beach wedding packages that cannot be customized, all of the packages from Suncoast Weddings can be tailored, allowing couples to create a unique experience rather than following a cookie-cutter runbook. Suncoast Weddings are premier wedding planners based on the west coast of Florida, based in Treasure Island. Popular local locations for beach weddings include St Pete Beach, Clearwater, Pass-a-Grille, and Madeira Beach. Indian Rocks Beach, Fort de Soto, and Treasure Island. Weddings can also be planned in a park setting, gardens, or local venues like yacht clubs. Offering inspiration for couples looking to say "I Do" or "we still do" in the sunshine state, a representative from Suncoast Weddings states: "Beach weddings are already non-traditional, so think outside the box when it comes to what is expected. It is your big day, so really the choices are endless. If the temperature is likely to be hot, that's another reason to consider a shorter dress. Many couples choose music for parts of their ceremony, and a tea-length dress may be easier to dance in. Certainly, if you plan on going into the surf, then a shorter hemline will help you in the waves and will protect the dress from the salty water. Don't be afraid to choose a gown that isn't the traditional ivory or white … although it is more common in vow renewals to wear a colorful gown, there are no rules for your beach wedding. There aren't many days that are veil-wearing days – so in our opinion, they are a stunning accessory on a magical day. There are so many photo opportunities and often they make the big day's outfit shift from great to sensational. If you are worried about the breeze, then consider the length of the veil and look into veil weights which are cheap to buy and will give a more predictable experience. Veil weights can be decorative as well as functional, adding an extra dimension to the bridal outfit. Florida beach wedding packages may be the starting point for couples looking to plan, but the dress is always going to be high on the 'to do' list. When planning a beach wedding, the lightweight fabric may not only be more comfortable, but it could add some natural movement as the breeze blows in from the Gulf of Mexico, making for whimsical and magical beach wedding snaps. An added bonus if you are having a destination wedding is that lightweight wedding dresses are easier to pack and less bulky." From a small and intimate elopement ceremony with just two people, to a grand and lavish beach wedding event, the team at Suncoast Weddings have the expertise and local contacts to make dreams come true.

Planning a beach wedding or vow renewal can seem a daunting task, however, affordable Florida beach wedding packages from Suncoast Weddings help take the guesswork out of the planning process by allowing couples to bundle and save when compared to a ceremony where each individual element is selected separately.

Suncoast Weddings also maintains a list of preferred vendors so they are able to recommend florists, make-up artists, limousines, catering companies, local reception venues, wedding cake bakers, and much more. Social media holds thousands of images of weddings and vow renewals and often is the starting point for an overall vision of the day. Several of the favorite locations are also showcased. Factors to consider when choosing a venue include available parking, if there is a boardwalk, how accessible the beach is, how wide the beach is, if the reception venue is nearby, if there is any shade available, and how far the location is from accomodation.

Florida sunsets on the west coast overlooking the Gulf of Mexico offer the opportunity to take spectacular wedding day portraits to be cherished forever. It is no surprise them that sunset is the most popular time to plan a beach wedding or a beach vow renewal with Suncoast Weddings, premier wedding planners based in Treasure Island. The ceremony should start about one hour prior to the published sunset time so that the vows and group pictures are not rushed.

Beach weddings on Florida's west coast are a popular choice for couples looking for a stress-free day in the great outdoors. In contrast to traditional weddings, where a venue may need to be booked and reserved over one calendar year in advance, beach weddings and vow renewals can be booked with just a few weeks lead time, although typically couples look to start the planning process about six months in advance. Suncoast Weddings have been planning beach wedding for many years, and know how to guide a couple through the planning from start to finish. With unlimited support on offer, some couples choose to be involved in every little detail, like what color the sashes will be, and what type of shell will be used in the Unity Sand Ceremony, whereas others have a general idea of what they want and then allow the Suncoast Weddings team to take care of the decision making around the details. Either approach results in a day where say "I Do" or "I Do Again" on the beach is a relaxed celebration on the shore. Most couples start with an idea of the ceremony space when looking at social media or the Suncoast Weddings website. There are a choice of arches, and many different colors of chiffon to choose from. When getting married or renewing vows, typically several elements come together, like the decor, an officiant, a professional photographer, and perhaps a day-of coordinator. One way to save on the overall costs, particularly useful when trying to stay within a fixed budget, is to look at purchasing a Florida beach wedding package from Suncoast Weddings. There are packages that range from a small intimate ceremony with no decor, to elaborate seating plans, decor, and draping with chairs for one hundred family and friends. Some of the packages bundle a reception to follow the ceremony, creating a Florida beach wedding and reception package where all of the costs can be gathered and easily viewed in one proposal. Increasingly so since the lockdown, couples looking to renew their vows on the Florida sands are not choosing the exact anniversary date or waiting for a milestone year like a silver anniversary or golden anniversary. They are creating a new anniversary date that best suits a small gathering with family and friends, often combining the ceremony with a small vacation to Florida

One of the reasons beach weddings and beach vow renewals are so popular is the attraction of planning a day with less stress and less formality than a traditional wedding. Another major advantage is the cost, as a beach wedding can prove to be a popular choice for couples planning to say "I Do" on a budget. Most public beaches on the west coast of Florida require a permit for a ceremony, and Suncoast Weddings, premier wedding planners based on Treasure Island, can help apply for the permit and keep all the paperwork in order. The permit effectively stops the venue being double-booked and reserves the specific location at a particular date and time. Most couples wait until the permit is secured before they send out the 'save the date' notices, so it is typically one of the first decisions to be made when starting the planning process. Some couples find the prospect of planning a wedding a daunting process, although in reality, details can be pulled together over time and there is very little pressure to have all the answers upfront. Decisions like the color scheme for the decor and the music to be played during the ceremony can be changed up to about two weeks before the ceremony date. If extra guests are expected or if some family and friends are unable to attend, the number of chairs can be adjusted. The number of guests is also an important consideration at a reception. Logistics can be simplified if the wedding and reception are booked together through Suncoast Weddings, and communication all flows through one primary contact. Booking a wedding and reception together as a package allows the chance to bundle and save on services, another opportunity to keep the big day affordable and on track budget-wise. Sunset is the most popular time of the day for weddings, and sunset times are posted well in advance, so the ceremony typically should start around one hour before the sun is due to set over the Gulf of Mexico. This allows plenty of time for a relaxed ceremony and then group portraits before the photographer and the couple move to the shoreline for some romantic shots as the sun sets.

Beach weddings and vow renewals are a popular choice for couples looking for an affordable way to say "I Do" and stay within a fixed budget. Florida beach wedding packages, which can be booked for beach weddings or vow renewals, are designed to 'bundle and save' decor elements and professional services so that the overall cost is reduced when compared to building a ceremony a la carte where each individual element is chosen. Suncoast Weddings are wedding planners based in Treasure Island on Florida's west coast, a popular destination for couples looking to get married at sunset. For a sunset wedding, the advice is typically to book a ceremony time of about one hour before the published sunset time. This allows enough time for a relaxed ceremony and then group photographs before the couple can pose for sunset photographs. If the wedding party is particularly large or if only the couple are present, the times can be adjusted. The team at Suncoast Weddings can help plan the logistics and will share details of the location, timing, ceremony details, and any other related information in a proposal that can be modified and adjusted as the planning stage progresses. Booking the reception alongside a wedding is another way to 'bundle and save' although it also simplifies communication with only one central point of contact in case the number of guests changes or there are special requests. For a couple looking to keep the day affordable, having all of the costs in one place can help track the overall costs.
