Beachfront weddings offer a nice change of pace from run-of-the-mill ceremonies. Beachfront weddings take place in a more relaxed setting that is naturally beautiful, and provide a distinct atmosphere that you will remember for a lifetime. Since these types of weddings are generally less formal, you have greater flexibility for your engagement ring options.

Before purchasing bridal jewelry, consider the theme of your ceremony, as well as the design, length and color of your wedding gown. These factors will make it easier to find a piece of jewelry to accent your attire.

Earrings, necklaces and bracelets are mainstay accessories for every bride. When choosing these pieces for a beach wedding, it is important to find pieces that are suitable for the occasion. Pearl jewelry is an excellent choice since it adds a timeless, ocean-tinged touch that is appropriate for the ceremony. Diamond jewelry is another option; however, it is important to avoid wearing oversized diamonds that are typically more appropriate for a traditional wedding. Other options include sea shell jewelry and colorful, oversized gemstones that add a splash of color to your wedding gown.

Stylish shoes are always a top accessory, but, at a beach wedding, going barefoot is more appropriate for the occasion. Foot jewelry will accent the beauty of your wedding gown and compensate for the lack of shoes. Barefoot beach sandals add a touch of relaxed sophistication to your foot. Whether you want them studded with pearls, shells, or stones, barefoot sandals come in a variety of colors and patterns. Anklets are another flattering option that will highlight your ankles. Be sure to choose anklets that fit comfortably on your foot and offer a noticeable contrast from your wedding gown.
