When my fiance and I set the date for our wedding, I started planning and shopping for all my accessories and wedding supplies, right away. Since I love to shop online, I decided that was as good a place to start as any. I’m glad I did too, with all they had to offer there was no problem finding everything I needed to plan the perfect wedding and reception. From invitations to fantastic wedding favors gifts for our guests, they had it all.

We had no problem choosing the theme we wanted for our wedding and reception, it had to be a beach theme. Our friends and us have spent many days on the beach, since we were kids, growing up here and it seemed like the perfect place for our wedding.

So the first thing I did was to order the beach themed wedding invitations and get them in the mail as soon as possible. There were no no’s in the RSVP’S, and they all seemed to be really looking forward to our wedding day. Now, since the invitations were taken care of, I could concentrate on finding the bridal accessories I want for my wedding. Even though I shop online all the time, I never expected to find such a big selection of wedding bridal accessories. The first thing ordered was the exquisite hair comb and tiara to wear on my wedding day. Not only did I find the perfect hair accessories, but my wedding jewelry too. I ordered a beautiful necklace and earring set that looked absolutely fantastic with my gown. It was so beautiful with little pearls and glistening crystals, it looked fantastic.

There was an amazing bridal fashion display that was so beautiful and even reasonable in price. I also bought a few items I can use while on our honeymoon. A short wedding dress would have probably been the wiser choice, since we were getting married on the beach, but I had to have my full length dress. There were satin summer dresses for my bridesmaids and my flower girl, that had a knee length hemline. Everyone of them looked stunning and my flower girl was so adorable.

Our reception tables were all set up on the beach with tiki torches scattered all around and lights strung up by the make shift dance floor we had. On the reception tables there were seashells and starfish scattered about and place card holders that were adorable little sailboats. I didn’t want to give our guests some useless wedding favor that would be stuck in a drawer and forgotten, so we gave them beach themed picture frames as thank you gifts. I think the picture frames I chose were to their liking.

Our wedding table was beautifully set with beach themed champagne flutes, little beach tealights and lovely beach themed candles and holders. Our wedding cake topper was especially designed for a beach wedding just as all our other accessories for our reception. Our topper was a bride and groom taking a walk along the beach. Thanks to all the supplies and bridal accessories I had to choose from, our wedding and reception was everything I had hoped it would be. For those that weren’t into seafood, we made sure we had plenty of steaks and chicken for them. We danced to some really great tunes and enjoyed the fantastic foods that were prepared and just had one heck of a beach party. If it wasn’t for going on our honeymoon, I never would have left our terrific beach party.

As soon as we returned from our honeymoon I got out my beautiful beach themed wedding guest book and started writing thank you cards to our friends and family. My beach themed picture album has all the memories within its beautiful covers for me to enjoy anytime I want to look back on our special beach wedding and reception.
