For your seating arrangements, just go for a simple banquet style covered with ivory white or some pastel coloured sheet to give a divine sensation. But, electric colours like purple, yellow, orange make your reception party pretty as a picture.
Coming to your wedding arch or Mandap, beach weddings offers number of options in the name of decorations. No need to include those traditional flowers.

And if your planner can devise up some pattern with all these, what could be more delightful than this.

Starting with the cake, prepare it on a beach based theme. Put on the fluffy creamy seashells, or have an aqua coloured cake prepared with pearly or watery endowments on it.
Drinks are a must when yours is a beach wedding. Margaritas, Cocktails, Pina Coladas or any citrusy drink can add up to your menu.
Smoothies or ice-based drinks or shave ice will be a hit among all.
Appetizers are a favourite of everyone, be it kids or adults. So, give it a little beach twist. Mini crab cakes, oysters, shrimps, sun-dried tomato, tropical fruits, dates, cashews, prawns all make for a hearty appetizer menu.
A fresh salad before the main course will be a great idea. Go for the famous Caesar Salad with some shrimp add-on or prepare a tropical fruit salad with dates.
Coming to desserts, coconuts would make for nice dessert ingredient. Lemon tarts, cream pie or a pineapple cheese cake would be good enough as well.
Since this is a beach wedding, your main course could be compiled with items such as shrimps, smoked salmons, lemon brushed chicken or some barbequed veg and non-veg food items.
Set up a treat station for the kids. The lemon drops, fruity lollypops, or jelly-filled croissants are all a popular knick-knacks to be eaten by the little guests.

Let your niece or nephew hold a sign board for your arrival. Announcing your entry like this would symbolize cuteness in your celebration.
Hey! Don’t forget that your wedding is going to be held under sunshine. Thus, give your entry a regal look by entering under a laced umbrella to save yourself from blazing light.
How about making your entry under bubble shower? Set up a timing with your guests and enter on a certain note when your guests start blowing bubble. Nothing would look more enticing on a beach than this.

Distribute Beach Trinkets:

Well, when yours is a beach wedding make sure that you are giving your guests the needed accessories that can help them in enjoying the day better.

Though they won’t come shoeless, you can provide some added benefits for their feet. Provide them some Flip-Flops, or bristled brushes with which they can remove the sand from their feet.
Sunglasses would be great when they are sitting under sunlight.
The beach starts getting colder after sunset if organised during winters. Make sure that you are providing shawls or muffs to them.
