Destin Beach Weddings Ceremonies On Sugar Sands

Online, November 13, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Many women fantasize about their perfect Destin wedding and for some that special event takes place on the beach. A beach wedding is definitely a nice alternative to getting married in a traditional church. You'll have the wind blowing through your hair, the soft sound of the waves in the background as you exchange vows, and the beautiful sugar sand beaches to party on. Having a Destin Beach wedding on the beach is fun. However, when it comes to picking out the perfect dress for an outdoor wedding, there are several things you want to keep in mind to make sure you get a dress that is comfortable to wear.

Since a Destin Florida beach wedding is an outdoor event, the weather is going to play a big part in your final dress choice. Other than rain, your main area of concern will be the temperature. If it is too cold, you don't want to be shivering through your marriage vows in a thin dress that is too thin. On the other hand, you don't want to be sweating profusely under the hot sun in a dress made with heavy fabric. Although Florida is generally warm year round, it still has its chilly days. The Farmer's Almanac and the Weather.com website are good resources for predicting what the weather is going to be like on your wedding day.

Another thing you want to take into consideration is the surrounding area. This is especially important if you want to preserve your dress for future generations. A Destin beach wedding may be beautiful but it does pose potential hazards for your wedding dress. Grass, sand, dirt, and salt water can all stain your dress and make it difficult to clean. Choose your fabrics wisely. Generally, polyester satin is a good fabric that can be easily cleaned. Additionally, you may want to nix the long train unless you plan on having someone carry it for you as you walk down the sandy aisle.

Since it is an outdoor Destin wedding, it can be hard to decide if you want to get a sleeveless dress or one with long sleeves. On a cool day, sleeves will definitely come in handy but can be very uncomfortable if it turns out to be hot. One possible solution is to get a short, or no sleeve, dress and then purchase a complementary jacket or shawl to use as cover up if it is cool on the day of your beach wedding.
