BEAUTIFUL BEACH WEDDINGS – Melbourne
If you’re planning a beach wedding, while it’s a beautiful and magical idea, there’s lots to be wary of. As wedding photographers and videographers, we’re obsessed with the cinematic beauty of a beach wedding- especially at sunset. If you’re looking to create a stunning picturesque wedding on the shore, here are our top tips to make sure you’re ready to get wed by the sea.
- You already have the ocean as the most beautiful backdrop possible, keep all your other décor rather simple.
- Every beach has different rules and regulations. Be sure to check that you have all of the necessary authorisation for your event.
- The weather is unpredictable. Always have a backup plan and prepare for the worst. Rent a tent on standby or have an indoor ceremony option ready too.
- The ocean is noisy. There’ll be birds and waves and other people. Make sure to use a microphone with a high volume so that everyone can here. You’ll need to make sure there is electricity available with speakers and sound equipment.
- Smile for the camera. At such a remarkable and cinematic location, you’ll want to go the extra mile for your wedding photography and wedding videography options.

- No one wants to walk across the sand with heavy shoes. Set up an area for guests to put their shoes and have a ‘no shoes, no problem’ policy.
- It’s summer and the beach is hot. Go for a lighter and more casual dress code for the wedding.
- The secret to a successful and smooth wedding is having a wedding planner. They can make your life so much easier and more stress free!
- Remember that so many elements are out of your control so it’s important to go with the flow and be happy to switch things around right up until the last minute. If you let go, you’ll be able to relax and enjoy your day.
- If all of these tips are making you doubt and second guess your location choice, perhaps a beach wedding isn’t best for you. Not to worry though, there are plenty of indoor venues to choose from- even with an ocean view!
