One of the most romantic and naturally beautiful venues for a wedding ceremony in Roatan is on one of our many stunning, sandy beaches. On a sunny day, there is an atmosphere of freedom and fun that is hard to replicate in any other setting.
That said, Weddings Roatan have experienced and managed beach ceremonies over the last 5+ years, we have learned a lot about the difference between a successful, enjoyable celebration.
With a little planning you can be sure to get the most from your beachside location while avoiding some common mistakes. We got you!
Make your guests comfortable
It is thoughtful and hospitable to provide your guests with as many venue-specific comforts as possible so they enjoy the beach you’ve chosen as much as you and your fiancé do.
Smart venue choice
Try to find a beach ceremony location in a naturally sheltered area.
Alternatively, you can compromise and hold the ceremony on a grassed area above the beach.
That way, you can still have your photos on the sand afterwards and your guests are more likely to enjoy your ceremony.
Work with your surroundings
Choose your hairstyle, floral arrangements and dress with your beachside venue in mind.
All floral arrangements should be low-line and have weights or stones in the vase or base.
Flower stems or sprays attached to canopies, chairs or other displays need to be securely tied or taped so as not to come loose as the afternoon breeze picks up.
Be careful with bad weather
Even if you are lucky and the temperature for your wedding day is forecast to be moderate (20-30 degrees Celsius) it is hard to anticipate wind speeds.
It is not just smart to put strategies in place to diminish the effects of crazy weather, but rather prevent for your peace of mind and the enjoyment of your guests.
