If you’re truly stuck, starting by decoding the venue. Not all beaches share the same vibe. While a luau in Maui may call for bold colors or tropical prints—like a printed dress in a sunset palette by Significant Other— a Nantucket affair might be better suited to something a little more structured, à la the red and blue midi we found from La Double J. The best thing about a beach wedding is the connection to nature, so if it feels right, lean into color, airy fabrics, and a generally playful aesthetic—beautiful options from Carolina Herrera, Taller Marmo, and Missoni are right in line with the theme.
