Activity for Rachel

I am planning a beach wedding and doing it myself, although will most likely hire an on the day co-ordintaor to help with set up etc. My question is, what are the rules for decoration on the beaches etc, chairs, tiki torches in the sand, archways,...

I am in the uk, waiting on my visa to move to Fort Lauderdale and I don't know where to start with planning this wedding. we want a beach wedding and then reception afterwards, and I want to decorate and plan ourselves, then just have a co-ordinator...

Anyone had or been to a wedding here? looks nice and wondering if there is a pavillion we can hire for a bbq style reception after and hire caterer and bar. Any advice on getting permits etc? I'm lost at the moment
