This wonderful couple Melissa & Jocelyn got married with a beautiful ceremony at the beach by Tide the knot beach weddings.

The reception took place at the West Events in Madeira beach across the street from the ceremony and next to Tide the knot office. All the RED color around the details and decoration made this day GORGEOUS! There was red all over.

Beach weddings are alluring for more reasons than one; and being out in the open, in a romantic oceanfront setting while the wind and waves sing their praises over your union, is one of those. They are far from the typical traditional wedding, which is often hosted within a church, or another elaborate indoor setting. That is not to say there aren’t other outdoor wedding types that aren’t appealing, as the garden wedding for example, but beach weddings are definitely in a category of their own. One of the most obvious reasons to have a beach wedding is the romantic setting. The ocean is the background, the sunlight beaming off the ocean waves, and the delightful sea breeze will have you and your partner in a romantic setting that will start off your life of happiness together.

A few things to consider when planning a beach wedding:

• Make sure the beach is accessible to everyone involved

• Make your decor windproof

• Get beach permit is needed

• Make sure there’s shade.

• Always have a plan B for any beach wedding
