Wait a minute. Sand?

Getting married in a tropical setting like Providenciales can be truly memorable, but a beach wedding can mean a variety of unique experiences which entail some special planning. Here are a few wedding tips for Turks and Caicos beach ceremonies to ensure the perfect beach wedding day.

What To Do Before You Say “I Do”?

Villa del Mar’s staff will help you select the perfect location and coordinate the appropriate officials to conduct the ceremony. These experts understand all the detailed documentation that you need to complete and can walk you through it all.

They can help you understand all the legwork that is necessary so that your Big Day runs as smoothly as possible.

How to Dress for Your Turks & Caicos Beach Wedding?

It’s the Caribbean, so the temperatures are warm. Ladies, choose fabrics that are lighter and don’t cling to the body. Chiffon, linen, organza, cotton blends and lace are light and will look gorgeous. If you choose to wear a veil, keep in mind there may be a slight sea breeze, so you might want to choose a birdcage veil or one that has stones, beading or trim to add some weight. Or just replace the traditional veil with a unique hair updo accessorized with flowers or feathers. For the groom, white or beige pants accented with a coloured shirt or jacket work well. Other ideal options include linen or silk blend suits. Finally, you might want to go barefoot and wiggle your toes in the sand when you say your vows. But for those of you who want to wear shoes or sandals, you can rent a wooden walkway to create a more traditional walk down the aisle.

Your Day Will Be Sublime If You Pick The Right Time

As the day goes along, temperature and humidity can increase. Perhaps exchange your vows in the morning and then enjoy a formal brunch with your family and friends. Against the vibrant colours of the sky at sunset, it’s an ideal time for a wedding ceremony. As the light fades, you can have lanterns or torches to add warmth and romance. If you prefer an afternoon event, choose a wedding site that offers shade and arrange a canopy above you to keep you cooler as you say “I do”.

Creativity, Colours and Cakes; The Difference The Detail Makes

A wedding is a personal story. Every bride and groom has a different way of expressing themselves. Maybe you prefer a traditional tiered cake? Maybe cupcakes will do just fine. Do you want a simple bridal bouquet or something more elaborate? Do you or anyone in the wedding party have any allergies to specific flowers? This is truly where a wedding planner can assist, and the specialists available to you through Villa del Mar can help you with wedding cakes, a signing table, floral arrangements, guest seating, and decorations. They can arrange a sound system so that your important vows and expressions can be heard over ocean breezes. You may also choose to have a wedding assistant who can be there from start to finish to ensure the whole event goes smoothly.

Images and Pics: Choose A Photographer Who Knows All The Tricks

There are many talented photographers on Providenciales, and some of them are available to you through Villa del Mar’s finely-tuned contact list. These professionals will not only capture the special moments during wedding preparations, wedding rehearsal, and your vow exchange but can also provide videography of these special events.

Want Something New After You Say “I Do”? How About a Beach Barbecue?

You’ve survived the jitters of the ceremony and tied the knot. It’s time to celebrate with your family and friends. The catering professionals through Villa del Mar can help you coordinate a delicious meal including local Caicos cuisine right on the beach. Set against the gorgeous blue Caribbean waters, lush green palms and sugary sand, it’s the ideal setting for a wonderful wedding meal. The team at Kissing Fish Catering Company will prepare a menu featuring island dishes like conch fritters or jerk chicken or favourites like hot dogs and hamburgers and serve it up on linen covered tables.
