Beach Wedding Dresses

Beach wedding dresses are defined by lightweight fabrics, relaxed silhouettes, and delicate details that balance elegance with comfort. At Love Spell, we use high-quality fabrics, plain and with floral patterns, to make beautiful dresses that are easy to move in and suited to an outdoor seaside setting.

When planning a beach destination wedding, it’s important to account for the heat. Our beach wedding gowns are designed to let your skin breathe and stay comfortable under the seaside sun. Lightweight fabrics ensure you remain cool throughout the special day.

Linen, satin, lace, tulle, charmeuse and taffeta are the best options for a summer beach wedding dress – they are light, airy and delicate. Beyond temperature considerations, a light dress made of one of these fabrics will also be easier to manage in windy or sandy conditions.

You don’t need to wear any accessories on your wedding day if you don’t want to! Wear whatever makes you feel beautiful and comfortable, suits your personality and brings out your natural beauty. If you’d like inspiration for accessorising your dress, consider hair grips, leaving your hair down, adding hair charms, head jewellery, or even fresh flowers.

Dry sand shouldn’t ruin your wedding dress as long as it doesn’t get wet. You can easily dust-dry sand off, but wet sand may cause slight damage to your bridal gown.

It’s best to have a clear idea of your wedding setting before choosing your wedding dress. Knowing the venue helps you prepare for the weather and environment, ensuring your dress is a perfect fit for the occasion. This is why we recommend that you look at wedding dresses after you’ve booked the venue, around 8-10 months before your wedding day. If your wedding day is far into the future, consider waiting a little, as styles and trends can change quickly.

We recommend bringing two trusted people who understand your taste and won’t overwhelm you. Searching for your dream dress can be a wonderful experience, but it can also be intense, especially if you’re trying to find a wedding gown in a certain time frame.

Our guests tend to stay for around an hour. If you think that an hour won’t be enough to try on your dress, we can always book you in for a slot on a weekday, when we’re not as busy and can offer more time.

We recommend wearing skin-coloured underwear and a strapless bra to your appointment – this will let you see the dress in its full potential. To help you picture it on your wedding day, you can also bring along any accessories or shoes.

It is advisable not to bring children to the appointment as they can be a distraction and make it harder to find the perfect wedding dress. Although it isn’t recommended, we understand that this is not always possible, so if you are bringing your children, make sure that you come on a weekday when it’s a little quieter.

The best dress style for a beach wedding is one that feels light, breathable, and effortless while still looking elegant. Many summer brides choose a flowy silhouette such as an A-line or sheath, often designed in lace or chiffon fabrics that move beautifully in the ocean breeze. Details like flutter sleeves, a V-neckline, or a scoop back add comfort and charm, while slit details or thin straps keep the look practical for sand and sun.

Love Spell offers a range of lightweight beach wedding dresses designed specifically for beach weddings. Let’s look at the most popular choices with our beach brides:

• Jackie is an A-line dress with a fully corseted bodice and delicate straps, complemented by detachable off-the-shoulder sleeves. Airy tulle, 3D floral appliqué, and a sweetheart neckline make it one of the beach brides’ top favourites.
• The vintage-inspired Georgie is crafted from delicate Chantilly lace. This lightweight mermaid gown with a fully corseted bodice is worth trying on!
• Anastasia’s flowing organza skirt and a delicate lace bodice make it the perfect option for feminine beach brides.
• If you’re looking for a minimalist beach wedding gown, you’ll love our Susie. Made from soft, fluid crepe, this A-line wedding dress has an elegant open back. For a touch of romance, it includes detachable organza sleeves and a bow at the back.
• Raven is a chic A-line dress made from a soft cotton blend with floral print woven into the fabric, an ideal wedding dress for a beach wedding.

No, it doesn’t necessarily need to be a simple beach wedding dress. At Love Spell Design, we believe every customer is unique and the location of the wedding does not always determine the exact look of the dress.
We offer a selection of beach-style wedding dresses more on the classic, all-white and simple side such as our Nova and Blanc gowns. We also have ornate and contemporary dresses such as our Lilian and Fleming gowns.

Beach weddings make for stunning views and photos, but keeping your beach bridal dress free from any sand or dirt can be a challenge. Be cautious of rocks and cliffs, as they can tear your gown, and keep lifting your dress while walking. Avoid wet sand and water since stains are harder to remove. Lace and tulle fabrics capture more sand, so if this happens, have your gown professionally dry cleaned. For a quick fix, carefully dry the sand and gently shake it out.

Yes, a beach-style dress can be suitable for a night setting. The key is choosing among gowns made from light, breathable fabrics like chiffon, lace, or tulle that remain comfortable after sunset. Many brides also opt for flowy silhouettes, floral embroidery, or details like a V-neckline or low back that look beautiful under softer evening lighting. No matter the venue or the time of your wedding, Love Spell has the perfect dress for every occasion.
