Beach Ceremony Flooring?

Mandi, on May 11, 2020 at 4:57 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 6

Hi all! My fiance and I are getting married and are planning to have the ceremony on the beach. We both have older grandparents, aunts and uncles who may not be comfortable walking on the sand. Does anyone have any good suggestions on any sorts of (tasteful looking!!) rugs, bamboo runners, etc to put down so that its easier to walk on? Our venue doesn't offer anything like that. ANY advice would be great! We are in the brainstorming stage right now...

    I think the mismatched aisle rugs for outdoor weddings are so cool! I’ll bet we could find good deals right now too.

    I have been thinking about it because of my heels. There’re options, but there’re too complicated and or too expensive. I ended up planing to change my heels and bought espadrilles just to be able to walk on sand. Beside the shoes, I will have my adult son’s arm to hold on too. Maybe you could arrange who could guide them to walk to their seats?

    Hmm thats a good idea. I was thinking of just going barefoot. I'm worried that even with someone helping them they won't be able to make it. I feel like the rugs could get bunched and then be dangerous as well..

    Hi Mandi! How far will they need to walk? And is it just to find their seat, or are you having them walk in the processional?

    Depending on the distance and their mobility I'd think about having someone on an ATV / beach car that can quickly shuttle them to their seat or try to rent or construct a wooden walkway!

    On the sand, most people take off their shoes.
