Hi Lisa,
I think for beach weddings the best look is a slip dress or cocktail length. Loose hair and comfortable sheets are also key!
Congratulations!

Hi Lisa,
I got married on December 30, 2008 in Grand Cayman at the Grand Old House! The dress I wore was the Nicole Miller cross-back dress -- so comfortable and just enough "casual elegance." There was a small train but it bustled up nicely. Also, the dresses at Nicole Miller are so affordable!

You can see a pic of my dress here: http://www.edressme.com/nicole-miller-bridal-01.html.

Congrats on your wedding -- we had a blast in Cayman!!

I think long and light, since it will be warm. I wouldn't go with heavy and alot of bead work. Strapless, I would put my hair up. I have noticed with beach wedding that the wind does blow! Will effect pictures.

Congrats!! Gena

Take me in your suitcase with you ?

Make sure you and hubby take in 'Stingray City' !

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Caymans Islands is wonderful :)

I had a destination wedding with a beach ceremony in Cancun. I bought a Maggie Sottero dress. http://www.maggiesottero.com/dress.aspx?style=S5005

You want to make sure your dress is not too heavy (because you should carry it on the plane instead of checking it in as a luggage) and easy to walk around in. Since I had a beach wedding, I had platform sandals for the ceremony and then switched to heels for the reception.

Hi Lisa,
How exciting to be marrying in the Cayman Islands. My husband and I are going there in June and I can't wait. I am a photographer and the dress is the most wonderful part of the day for me! For destination weddings all of the brides I have shot wore sheath-like slip dresses. I think choosing something you will be comfortable in is very important. You will be walking on the beach for pictures and possibly you might like to choose a dress that can take getting wet and still hold up. Is your wedding going to be a formal or casual beach theme? Under my weddings gallery there is a featured wedding from Puerto Rico where the bride had a gorgeous dress that was very easy for her to move around in:

Beach wedding dresses are offered on Sandals Resort web site. They host hundreds of weddings each year and have begun selling wedding dresses, it worth checking out.
Good Luck!

I am also planning a wedding late 2010. We will be getting married at a private villa but am having trouble choosing a videographer. Any one have any suggestions?

As for the dress, i am in love with JCrew's wedding dress.
