Oh, how a wedding by the water evokes all of our senses; sight, sound, smell, taste and touch. Imagine…soft salty air and a gentle balmy breeze. A glamorous arrival by boat and the sun glinting off the water. Sand between your toes, and a cocktail in hand. Gently lapping waves and the tranquility of a sunset over the water. Happy and relaxed guests; this is your dream wedding by the water…
5 REASONS WHY WEDDINGS BY THE WATER....
A fun-filled mode of transport
Imagine...arriving to your reception by boat, pulling up to the pier where your guests await your arrival. Or joining your friends for cocktail hour while taking a leisurely cruise along the river or the harbour. Your choice of water transport adds the element of surprise!
Location, location, location
A wedding by the water provides an extraordinary location for your photos. Move to multiple locations, on a beach, on the pier, or on a cliff. And the wide expanse of water acts as a timeless, evocative backdrop, creating photos to last a lifetime.
Choose your theme
Use the water as your inspiration for ocean or water related motifs; a seashell graphic, a nautical anchor or a palm tree motif. Apply these details to create consistency throughout your wedding theme, from the invitations to your cake or take it one step further and create a cocktail inspired by the water!
A fresh colour palette
Waterside weddings offer a palette
of beautiful colours to work with. Will you choose the softest combination of blues and greens, bold nautical stripes or vibrant, sunny colours? Your chosen colours can inspire your bridesmaid’s dresses, your flowers and your stationery styling.
A room with a view
Gently lapping waves, the sight of a sunset glinting off the water, the smell of the salty air and the touch of a gentle breeze on your face. There’s a feeling of tranquility and peacefulness the water creates. And if your venue has windows that overlook the water - it’s sublime.
