Hawaii Beach Wedding Dresses

Staying cool, staying warm, staying dry, and sunburn prevention top the list of things to consider when you're planning a beach wedding in Hawaii.

In the warmth and romance of the tropics, a lot of brides favor off-the-shoulder, sleeveless, or strapless wedding gowns, so, if your Hawaiian wedding is during the day, you'll need a sunburn prevention strategy as part of your beauty regimen. If you have a few weeks before your Hawaiian wedding date, you can gradually tan in a tanning salon. There's also a spray-on tan that, in the hands of an expert, is a


reasonable facsimile of the real thing, but remember that, unlike the real thing, it offers no protection from sunburn.

If you prefer the 'no tan' look, try out a few brands of high SPF sun block ahead of time, just to make sure you're not allergic to any of them and that you AND your groom can tolerate the scent. Remember that sunscreen protection does wear off over time, so, if sun block is applied too soon before your Hawaiian wedding ceremony, during your ceremony you might not have the protection from the sun that you think you do.

Have the Hawaii wedding coordinator find out approximately how long the ceremony will last so that you can plan sunscreen application time for maximum effect.

And, even though you are getting married in Hawaii, it has been known to get downright cool, even at the beach, depending on the season and the weather. Be sure and include an elegant cloak, shawl, sweater, or jacket amongst your wedding regalia. Rain is another factor to plan for, even though our Hawaii wedding planners bring umbrellas to the beach. Consider the fabric in your wedding dress if you're planning a Hawaii beach wedding - if the fabric is prone to spot when water drops on it, a different dress would be preferable.

Tell the pedicurist that you're getting married, as there are various enhancements, including applying sequins and glass gems, they can offer you. Or you could just have fun decorating a pair of flip-flops to complement your wedding attire, but, if you're not used to wearing sandals, make sure you've broken them in ahead of time. Otherwise, you may find that, where the straps rub against your skin, you're getting blisters.
