Unfortunately, only a small percentage of beach weddings are
as perfect as they sound. Usually it’s either too windy or too hot - perfect
conditions are rare. The wind causes havoc with the decorations, the sand blows
onto everything (and everyone) and, of course, you’ve spent hours getting your
hair just right only to have the wind mess it up in a matter of minutes! On the
other hand, without any sort of breeze at all, it can get downright hot.
Guests usually aren’t too keen, either, of trudging down the
beach in their formal clothes and shoes.
Ask someone who has been to a beach wedding and I’m sure they’ll tell
you this.
Most couples these days are, instead, opting to have their
ceremonies in a park due to the uncertainty of the weather conditions.
With a park wedding you can still have the same decorations
which will look just as stunning. A park is usually more sheltered from the
wind and is also cooler which is a relief on a hot summer’s day.
Guests will also be relieved to know they won’t have to
spend half an hour after the ceremony trying to get sand out of their shoes.
There are definitely advantages to park weddings and, here
on the Gold Coast, we’re lucky to have so many beautiful parks to get married
in.
Approval for a park wedding is given for two hours, giving
you plenty of time for the decorator to set up, the ceremony and photos
afterwards whereas approval for a beach wedding is given for only an hour.
So, if you’re thinking about where to have your wedding,
think twice before you decide to have it on the beach.Simply Magic Ceremonies
