Inspiration - The Perfect Coastal Wedding....

Wedding season is finally here...and many of us will be organising gifts for loved ones who are getting ready to tie the knot! Or, if you've just got engaged you may be planning the 'Best Day Of Your Life' right now by taking inspiration from gorgeous wedding features in the summer magazines...

While some weddings will follow a very traditional route, the 'Big Day' can provide a special opportunity to reflect the unique pleasures and passions of the Bride & Groom.  If you - the happy couple -  are in love with the seaside, why not incorporate a few coastal elements into the theme of your Wedding Day, or add a special seaside-inspired gift to your Wedding List....

A Gorgeous Beach Bride...

Beautiful, beachy wedding style - image via here

The perfect coastal wedding dress is gorgeous, floaty, romantic, a little bohemian and very relaxed.  You could choose a mermaid tail design, a floaty baby doll or long, fluid gown? Add a pair of pretty, silvery sandals, pearls and tousled beach hair for the ultimate beach bride style.

A Seaside Tipi...

Get back to nature by hosting your reception in a beautiful waterfront tipi!  You can hire these beautiful alternatives to a marquee from Highland Tipis.  

Sea Pottery Hearts - The Stationery Suite...

Save the dates, thank you notes, the invitations and entire stationery suite provides a wonderful opportunity to include unique and pretty coastal style.  Why not send your invitation as a message in a bottle?   Also, you can enquire about using my 'sea pottery hearts' as part of the stationery design feature. I already produce the hearts in a range of note cards!

Wedding Gift Idea:  My 'sea pottery heart' collection is produced on pretty mugs, coasters and mounted prints - perfect for the coast-loving couple!

The Bridal Carriage (and the Honeymoon Suite!)

If you love - or dream of - scooting along coast roads in a campervan, this could be the perfect way to get around on your wedding day!  Then, when it's all over, sneak away to your cosy, beachside camper for an unforgettable wedding night...

Memories & Mementos....

Great Gift Idea! Enjoy every opportunity to remember your special day by commissioning a beautiful and bespoke, hand-painted ceremaic plate - I can include elements of your big day and a few more of your favourite things!
